If I could convince people of anything, it would be to learn how to mend clothes. Mending doesn’t have to be complicated. It doesn’t even have to be good. It just needs to extend the life of clothing.

Okay, in regards to the recent porn/ban talk/legislation I need to reiterate something very important:
ANYONE making the argument that you can tell enough about a person's character from the fiction/art they make to take retributive action against them is UNTRUSTWORTHY
THIS IS A BAD-FAITH ARGUMENT
