  • To be fair, I'm not convinced beheading a whale is lots worse than what our ex president is guilty of.

  • The one thing fascists can't stand is to be laughed at. Don't take them seriously - laugh at them and it hits harder than a gut punch.

  • Let's hope the other 140 authors also threaten to sue!

  • This is a seriously good idea! Employers want employees that are looking to improve themselves.

    Either you fucked up and they'll tell you so you can improve next time, or they'll just be impressed at your desire to grow.

  • After you get your library card go sign up for Libby! Free books and audiobooks from your phone/device.

  • Get yourself a boss that respects Mental Health days!

  • Oof @ 3 part time jobs. Hope life shapes up for you in the near future friend. Best of luck!

  • What's stopping you from doing this now? Seems like it would be naturally the place that industry professionals would flock to and would see dramatic success.

  • What are your thoughts on the headline: People No Longer Think Working Hard Leads To Better Life

    Is this just the natural state of things then?

  • Oof is this complicated. Yes, but no.

    If there is no IP then why would you bother creating or inventing?

    On the other hand, Disney extended the timeline of copyrights beyond reason.

    Edit: I understand not everyone needs monetary rewards to create something, however I think there are a lot of things that without the monetary reward would not exist.

    Do you like video games? Everyone here seems to think we can just copy the files without any harm to anyone. But if all games were free, what sort of games would be created? If game companies stood to make no money, why would they bother with such a large production? Why would Nintendo bother being Nintendo?

    It's not that video games wouldn't exist without the IP, it's that without the monetary reward there wouldn't be such a drive over such an extended period of time. But maybe we only need indie games and no one here has ever enjoyed AAA games. That's fair, if true.

  • Actually philanthropic billionaire? Cool, but we shouldn't have to rely on billionaire philanthropy to get by.

    Public office? To be fair he's as qualified as our most recent ex-president.

  • This was my concern, but if y'all think servers will give up their tax free tips... sure...

  • It does feel like we should be encouraging the end of tipping, not asking it to stick around forever.

  • Patent law is a fucking mess, don't bother getting involved with it.

  • They banned bots from WholesomeMemes and there were no posts for 2 days. Dead Internet is now, and it's at Reddit.

  • Great point. Can't risk our oil interests!

  • Why is the US so soft on Israel killing US citizens, but so harsh on... anyone else that does it?

  • "If those kids could read, they'd be very upset." But Trump voters can't and don't read so...
