LOL, Google... YES, Google... is suing a web scraper for copyright infringement. The company that has stolen everything ever by web scraping is suing someone for taking their shit.

The hypocrisy meter has broken, it doesn't go that high!

A dinosaur perk was that worn teeth got replaced. A section of the lower jaw of a big iguanodontian from the #IsleofWight shows the process. Tooth replacement was organised in waves known as Zahnreihen, so that large sections of the jaw weren’t left toothless (enlarge to see numbers). #FossilFriday

My parents were able to pay for college and I graduated without debt. I could take a risk to move to Silicon Valley, which led me to writing Automate the Boring Stuff with Python and my author career.

The goal of socialism isn't "free stuff". It's to give the benefits of generational wealth to all.
Law school cost me $190,000.

I have paid $206,000 since graduation.

I now owe $223,000.

I pay $830 per month, and next year it will be more.

I genuinely believe law school student loans are designed to make pro bono representation impossible.

Anarchism has some problems as a theoretical framework, but its basic formula of:

- no masters above
- no servants below
- chuck a bomb at the czar every once in a while

Almost never fails to be correct.

In a sane world, the government guilty of committing genocide would be dismantled, and forced to pay reparations. Instead they are allowed to corral their victims into a concentration camp and steal their land. We live in the most obscene of all possible timelines.
