Nicely spaced weigh-ins. But Rooklet and Tali are still growing and filling out, are they not?

And I mean look, if you're going to pirate a book, there's not really anything I or anyone else can do to stop you from doing that. Whatever. You just can't expect everyone to pat you on the back and tell you what a good leftist you are for doing it.

As in, the car has a leak - in have stopgap measures in place but the forecast is for RAIN - I'm trying to get this dealt with as something of an emergency - but sure, let's prioritize changing out somebody's spark plugs over something that has the potential to expensively ruin a car, why don't we?

Anybody who is like “Piracy is activism!”—trust me, supporting your local library is about 1000% more effective activism, and it’s still free for you and authors still get paid!

Can I buy one in Utah and use it in a different state ?

And update. "We're going to need the car for three days and we're going to need to gut the inside for the job. Hey the good news is that it's covered by the warranty..." :headdesk:

REMINDER: if you think your right-on lefty/socialist/communist/etc. politics justifies pirating books, well guess what? Most writers don't make a living wage from their books or writing work, and stealing from them makes you a class traitor.

If you want literature to exist you have to support it and that doesn't always mean you, personally, will pay. The more we USE our libraries the better they can justify their funding, and the more people they can serve.

By stealing instead, you're cheating your neighbors AND the artists. Dick.
