How about you protect it from the DOMESTIC pirates in Silicon Valley that steal everybody's IP en masse with their AI trawlers and their endless, resource devouring greed?

Fiercely liberal, unabashedly nerdy. Cantankerous, mouthy, and defiant. Too many pets (as if!). LGBTQ+ ally and safe space. Fuck intolerance!

So sick of people begging for mutuals and then NOT following back. Mutuals are meant to be MUTUAL, not an audience to blindly absorb your content one-way. Don't even bother asking if you're going to be disingenuous about it.
That's not just an unfollow, it's a block.

At this point, Karma is the ONLY thing doing something about billionaires, kleptocrats, and oligarchs. And not nearly as much of it as their actions and beliefs warrant. But at least it's something.

Also I HATE the loaded language they use. "Refuse to work." Bullshit. What if they're sick? What if they have long-term back pain from stressful manual labor jobs with no medical coverage or adequate sick & vacation time? What if they have a mental health disorder that makes daily work difficult? 😝

I adore SO many of your books. But a modern adaptation of one to film, to see what was before only in my mind's eye, would be absolutely epic!
I know it's a completely different medium, and as an old school book nerd I totally prefer writing, but my broken brain is terrible at visualizing, so... 😁

Oh, and a more recent one! Watching my son get the true ending on Hollow Knight, and the look of joy and triumph on his face when he dealt the final blow, was every bit as much a thrill as the day I beat it myself. 😁
