Folks, if your library doesn’t have a book you want to read, ask them to buy a copy. Most have a convenient form and will let you know when it comes in. If your library offers ILL, they can even borrow books from other libraries.

Why do you think eReaders never took off? They're kind of like VR for me. Amazing in principle, but I just find myself wandering back to the old tech. I just like books. Also, not incidentally, I kept breaking kindles.

I love how every artist has a different style that's wholly and uniquely them. even if ppl draw in the same general style, there's still just ✨something✨ about it that has the fingerprints of its creator and I think that's part of what makes art so beautiful

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".
PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

Snitching to corporate and getting 30 people fired is not mandatory — rats have to make that choice for themselves.
PMG understands Rockstar became aware of these messages after at least one non-union member of the server raised concerns about these discussions with management and this either kicked off, or contributed to, a wider investigation.

In all my years roleplaying in world of Warcraft gnome and goblin players have always been super rare. I decided to run a D&D campaign set on Azeroth with players that know barely any of the lore and we have one night elf, an orc, two goblins, and two gnomes. This party is going to be wild hahaha

It's time to end the arguments, they've gone on much too long. Here is the definitive ranking of Star Wars:
1. Star Wars (film, 1977)
2. Star Wars (comic book series, 1977-present)
3. Star Wars (video game, 1983)
4. Star Wars (novelisation, 1976)
5. Star Wars (proposed missile defence system, 1983)
