Large Fierce Mammal

“The Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog” by Caspar David Friedrich

Welcome, Dear Reader, to yet another season of Dark Sentiments; being our traditional 31 October days of musings, revelations, exposé, poetry, literature, visual arts, and myriad dark expressions of the Human spirit, all chosen from the sort most in the world have spent the past year trying desperately to avoid, or pretend into nonexistence.

This series first saw moonlight in the month of October 2010, and has cruelly continued every year since then. For those curious, foolhardy, or nostalgic enough to pursue the matter, links to the introductory piece for each past season are listed hereunder:

• Dark Sentiments 2010
• Dark Sentiments 2011
• Dark Sentiments 2012

From each, you can navigate through the entire associated season by using the forward and backward navigation links at the bottom of each page.  Should you choose to dabble in these sins of the past, there is a chance you will find broken links or video presentations that either no longer work as intended, or even still exist. We make every effort to stay on top of such things, but nevertheless beg your indulgence in bringing such occurrences to our attention should you encounter them in your travels … or even travails.

This season will bring out the latest news on some old favourites, and delve into some previously unexplored territory. If you remember as you read this that you’re running a sleep debt, it’s too late now.
