[P2P-F] couchsurfing becoming for-profit

[{ brad brace }]

yes, yes, even more eternal equivocation... but hey, why not
at least buy a button? finally do something meaningful ;))

the continuous cultural bail-outs, conceptual ponzi-schemes,
and insider quid-pro-quo ("critical mobility...") are
finally coming to a joyously redemptive end; the options for
(non-complicit) artists will no longer be reductively
dependent on obstructionist oligarchical art-agencies

to celebrate this event and concurrent devaluations, I've
quickly (without any funding,) designed a FREEE pinback
button appropriated from US Federal Currency Seals:
ENCUMBRANCE EXCLUSION EQUIVOCATION (only $2.99 for shipping,
delivered anywhere); provide cash, cheque, or paypal with
delivery address via bbrace at eskimo.com
