Also, when you get your library to buy my book, it's on your library's shelves. A hundred extra people might lay eyes on it a week, in person, and pick it up on a whim. How many books that you love have you stumbled across just because you liked the cover or saw it in a library display?
Libraries purchase books. When you see a book at the library, it isn’t “free”
the library bought it.
which in turn means that the community bought it.
In other words, library books are not lost sales for authors and publishers; they’re positive sales. Active sales. Those are bought.

My latest for @hyperallergic.com looks at a late Roman shipwreck (ca. 320 CE) found off the coast of Mallorca with over 300 amphorae.

Starmer does not want to be held responsible for any decisions - so he ducks making any decisions.
Instead of leading, he maintains the status quo, or lets decisions be made by the courts/ advisory bodies, so he can point elsewhere and say it was “their fault” come election time! 😣

Its decision to leave the Tory appointees in post at the BBC is one of so many Labour have made that I can't begin to understand. Any guesses?

Well... bollocks...didn't realise MSPA was still re-uploading all the pages of Homestuck to make it accessible again. Today I reached the point, around 7000 pages in, where we are presumably getting daily updates.😐😑😣 Fuck. Slow updates were why I didn't finish first time 'round *vibrates worriedly*.

I’d rather be let down by the Green Party actually *trying* to make our lives better because at least you could say they’ll have a go. We’ve been let down by Labour deliberately & intentionally making life in Britain harder & making crap excuses for punitive political choices

In Icelandic we have 'Ókind' for monster. But the translation is un-sheep. So everything not a sheep is dangerous.

Genuinely, a corporate death penalty would be an appropriate remedy in many regulatory incidents.
Imagine a situation wherein no individual is found criminally liable for a massive harm to the public by a corporation. Automatic death penalty, since it organized itself to dissolve responsibility.

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved.

Welp, sorry Steam, you're just gonna lose my custom then. I've never had a credit card. Never want one, and ain't gonna be pressured into getting one either. Until the UK unfuck their current stupidity, I apparently won't be able to purchase games from you. 🖕🤬...

Politicians in government are utter prats. The Conservatives looked like fools when they banned face-sitting & Labour are equally imbeciles for trying to make strangulation illegal. All this from a misunderstanding of consent/safety measures within kink communities & elitist bedroom policing. 🤬
Just a reminder that UK politicians never look like bigger idiots than when they're trying to criminalize "extreme porn": maggiemcneill.com/2014/11/02/t...

Pets are wild, man. There's just this little dude or little lady living in your house, being a whole ass creature, living their little lives and following the tune of a song you'll never fully understand. It amazes me every time I look at an animal.
