Welcome back, fillies and gentlecolts!
I've got a special treat for you today – a story I stumbled across (and I'm not telling you how) that's about as perversely weird as anything I've ever read. It's called "Fifty Sheaves of Paper", and it's by Amit, but before I give you the link, let me tell you a bit about this story.
