How It Will Likely Happen

While the world’s attention is diverted for the next 72 hours by the death of a faded pop star whose relevance outside of dark jokes faded 20 years ago, the Iranian authorities will go in like rabid dogs smelling fresh blood and feast on the flesh of tens of thousands seeking freedom. Then an Islamic Republic shorn of its democratic facade and mandate to rule will celebrate its newfound freedom by repressing the Persian masses by never before. Meanwhile, my American brothers and sisters will go back to “Free Tibet” bumper stickers and finding the next trendy cause.

I sure as hell hope not.

Tragic because it’s true

It is already happening.

Fucks sake!

Internet Money (via Twitter).

  • fragmad: Just reading the Amanda Palmer made a years wages in small amount of hours post. Along with Thea Gilmore's innovative business model.
  • fragmad: I draw issue with both of them mainly as they are already in the public eye. They already have an audience. One gained through trad means.
  • fragmad: If I (or some other pleb) was to offer to write a 1000 word story for £10 a pop and advertised widely I doubt it would have the same impact.
  • fragmad: Don't get me wrong for £10 I'd write 1000 words on commission. But I doubt I'd find enough business to make a living from it.
  • fragmad: But people already with a fanbase going wow I just made a ton of money via twitter or donation strikes me as seriously crass.
  • fragmad: Also of interest to this series of thoughts http://catandgirl.com/dderby/ Not as quick money as others. Somewhat more bang per buck as well.
  • fragmad: Also IIRC @happymrlocust's business started with individually drawn prints of his comics for £15.
  • happymrlocust: @fragmad I think it was more in teh order of £10 actually, but a fair point.
  • fragmad: Correction the prints were £10. However the pricing here seems to be alomst arbitrary. What is needed is a lot of willing customers.
  • fragmad: Which is something the big examples of "omg I'm making money on the Internet and Paypal on my own" have already gained in traditional ways.
  • fragmad: I'll be quiet now.

What I'd Give Not To Hear Another Human Voice For A Day

Today just isn’t working for whatever reason. I’ve just not been able to find any time that I can spend concentrating. I blame the people around me.

There’s just this drone of noise coming from my yonger brother droning on about stupid animé, sanding the shitty sword he’s making, and coming up unannounced to attempt to boss me about.

Also the current version of Ubuntu is being stupid and not working like the previous ones.

Someone find the reset button please. Today’s just been a waste of time.

Edit: One good thing. In the single twenty minutes of silence I managed to write the treatment for a Ghost Exterminator comic.
