Yes, and I've been using beehaw less and less because of it.

"They said nothing, therefore they asked for it" isn't a great opinion, friend.

I live in Texas (a state that will go a certain way) and I will vote Dem. It makes no sense to me to help make a bigger gap between the Republicans and everybody else just because the Dems suck too.

The "principled stance" a protest vote makes only helps embolden the current political hellscape within my own state. If I can chip away at the Republican power structure, I will do it.

God, I miss Reader. It really was a great thing that Google ruined because they couldn't somehow cram ads into it.

Capitalism only functions when it can absorb the things that can be an alternative to it.

I mean, sure, I'd rather not hear that much about it, but people are grieving. I'm sure it'll die down and people need room to work through their feelings.

Exquisite Corpse by Poppy Z. Brite. It's the only book I've ever loved that it recommend to exactly nobody. It's very graphic (violent).

I think it's like 3D movies. You will make some money off the people who buy into the gimmick, some more off of the people who remember and want the Razr again, and the rest acts as a kind of "hey we're innovating here!" commercial for the manufacturer.

It's a dumb gimmick, but it seems like capitalism is almost exclusively dumb gimmicks at this point.

Neuromancer. It's okay so far.

I just finished Wolf in White Van by John Darnielle. I LOVED it.
