But at least it wasn't 'rape'

A thread on shakes that really, well, moved me enough i wanted to pass it on. sexual assault trigger warnings.



Shakesville: Lessons from the Rape Culture

(no subject)

okay, i can not articulate a post about the new fucking headesploding amazon fail that is so big i need a word bigger than fail to describe it. cataclysm? I JUST I DONT EVEN FUCKING KNOW.


I've been really WTFAMAZON since the damn kindle, which seemed like a great idea done horribly wrong, yay ebooks, boo proprietary drm bullshit. I do nnot understand paying more money to have access only to what the manufacturer wants you to have when my netbook was cheaper than a kindle and can handle multiple ebook files, just not kindle files.


but i stil gave amazon my money from time to time, in areas unrelated to books. just yesterday i paid amazon for a downloaded album, even. but no fricking more.
