Refreshing Tumblr…IN THE FUTUUUUURE
A reader writes, “I believe this is well worth reporting: many interesting photos are being put on the web as I write, a good number of them published by IRNA itself (see here). These are images from the recent Guardians Council TV broadcast session where they ‘recounted’ some ballot boxes and found out that indeed Ahmadinejad’s votes were higher than previously counted. These pictures show two things very clearly: 1) that a whole lot of the ballots that are being recounted are fresh, crisp, unfolded sheets - which makes no sense, given that people typically had to fold these sheets before they can slip them into the ballot boxes, and 2) that the handwriting on so many of the sheets which are votes for ‘Ahmadinejad’ are the same handwriting (and very clearly so).”-via Iran Uprising Live-Blogging (Tuesday June 30) Photo.

Don’t let me get out of this kiss
Don’t let me say what I say
The things that scare us today what if they happen someday
Don’t let me out of your arms
For nowWhat if the sword kills the pen
What if the god kills the man
And if he does it with love
Well then it’s death from above
And death from above is still a deathI don’t want to live without you
I don’t want to live without you
I don’t want to live
I don’t want to live
Without youFor those who still can recall
The desperate colors of fall
The sweet caresses of May
Only in poems remain
No one recites them these days
For the shameSo what if nothing is safe
So what if no one is saved
No matter how sweet
No matter how brave
What if each to his own lonely graveI don’t want to live without you
I don’t want to live without you
I don’t want to live
I don’t want to live
Without you
The Sword & the Pen – Regina Spektor, off the bonus track edition of the new album Far.
