“Recent Drafts” (aka. Reading on the Internet)
If there’s anything you should know about me, it’s that I’m lazy. Dead lazy. I’ll start things and let them hang in the wind until they aren’t relavent anymore. I have 5 saved drafts of articles that I started in April and May that are so out of date that, even if I still felt strongly enough about the topic to actually write them, would be of absolutely zero interest to anyone (as if anyone was interested in anything I had to say to begin with). So, this post is a dump of all the links from those various dead articles, arranged topicaly. (Plus a few other misc links I had lying around).
