bits and pieces

while looking through updates on the LGBT case, stumbled on a comment on Spot.ph's coverage of the sordid affair (okay, Ang LadLad's war against the Comelec isn't as sordid as say the Hayden Kho - Katrina Halili scandal, though i think what the recent issue lacks in - ahem - oomph and star power, it makes up for with social relevance):


in case you're wondering, i saved the image for two things: one, Ige Ramos' dissertation about how a world without gays would be like; and two, somebody linked to my article.

a long time ago, i wrote asking, "If I write an article and no one reads it, does anybody give a flying fart?" and admittedly, writing is my greatest inferiority complex. reading something like that comment lifts my spirits (i think the effect was far more potent because it was an anonymous commenter). To Aki, whoever you are, thank you for reading [it justifies my existence somewhat, no matter how that sounds].

also, the comment reminded me to fix the annoyingly gigantic block quotes and put up a new favicon to YuppieUniverse. let's hope my brain returns to its relatively normal axis soon.

i've been dreaming a lot lately, and i'm starting to think that it's because i haven't been writing fiction/making shit up and therefore my subconscious felt compelled to make shit up for itself. the fiction muse is on vacation, i think, and in her place came her batshit crazy non-fiction narrative sister. [i'm not complaining! i am not complaining batshit crazy non-fiction narrative muse, i am not.]

there are a couple of things lined up for finishing, so please don't leave me yet. T_T
