eventhepartofyouthatlovedhim's Siege and Storm playlist:
1. My Skin (Natalia Merchant): Take a look at my body/Look at my hands/There's so much here/That I don't understand/Your face saving promises/Whisper like prayers /I don't need them.
2. What's the Matter (Milo Greene): Dreamer, you will waste your time/Do you ever winder why?/We go on and on and on?/ Love is gone and gone and gone/What's the matter?/What's the matter with you lately?
3. Breathe Me (Sia):Help, I have done it again/ I have been here many times before/Hurt myself again today/ And the worst part is there's no one else to blame.
4. Sunrise, Sunset (Bright Eyes): You are lying while you confess, keep trying to explain./The sunrise and sunsets/You realize then you forget what you've been trying to retain./But everybody knows that it is all about the things/ that get stuck inside your head
5. Hurt (Le femme verte): What have I become, my sweetest friend?/ Everyone I know goes away in the end/ And you could have it all/My empire
6. Monster (Skillet): I feel it deep within,/ It's just beneath my skin/ I must confess I feel like a monster/ I have what I've become/ The nightmare's just begun/ I must confess I feel like a monster.
7. This is War (30 Seconds to Mars): It's the moment of truth, and the moment to lie/ The moment to live, and the moment to die,/ The moment to fight/ To fight, to fight, to fight!
8. Bodies (Drowning Pool): One-Nothing wrongs with me/ Two- Nothing wrong with me/ Three-Nothing wrong with me/ Four-Nothing wrong with me/ One-Something's got to give/ Two-Something's got to give/ Three-Something's got to give/ Now/ Let the bodies hit the floor.
9. Cut (Plumb): I'm not a stranger/ No I am yours/ With cripples anger/And tears that still drip sore/A fragile frame aged/With misery/And when out eyes meet/ I know you see/ I do not want to be afraid/ I do not want to die inside just to breathe in
10. Eyes on Fire (Blue Foundation): One more word and you wont survive/ And I'm not scared/ Of your stolen power/I see right through you any hour/ I won't soothe your pain/ I won't ease your strain/You'll be waiting in vain/I got nothing for you to gain.
Holy wow. I love this.

Hospital rebrands chemotherapy as DC-themed...
Hospital rebrands chemotherapy as DC-themed “superformula” for kids
Chemotherapy is never fun, but A.C.Camargo Cancer Center in São Paulo is trying to make it easier for children to accept the treatment. They’re rebranding the treatment as “superformula” and using comics to help kids understand chemo.
Buzzfeed’s Copyranter blog explains that the cancer center is working with ad agency JWT, which also works with Warner Bros. The idea was to help children believe in the power of chemotherapy to make them ultimately better. They’re not just covering the chemo cases with superhero logos; they’re also giving pediatric cancer patients comic books in which the heroes experience something similar to cancer and must receive a similar treatment formulated by doctors. And in the comics, the cases for the treatment bags look just like the cases the kids get over their own chemo bags.

I know it’s a little early, but… Ruin and Rising feels.
Also, I thought I hated Muse. Why must you continue to challenge my views, internet?
Los Angeles Review of Books - Ten Things I Learned From Loving 'Anne of Green Gables' by by Sarah Mesle
Great thoughts on the book, but also on how we can love something and still be critical of it.

WIP crafts. Sorry for the crappy quality. Having my own private Shadow and Bone Party to celebrate Siege and Storm’s soon-to-be-release, and what better way to celebrate than crafts! For those whippersnappers out there, I’m old school. So I’m making do without photoshop! These are all little things; some aren’t even close to finished but I’m having during the process. That passage written on lined paper is going in gold sharpie next to Genya’s (girl with lip brush) face. We’ll see how the rest turns out. Also I’m scanning my magazines for a better Darkling. Not digging the Burberry ad guy.
Hi Leigh! Can’t wait for Siege and Storm!
That is some sweet Fabrikator crafting right there is what it is. I want summa that swag!
