Don’t be shocked when one day a usb thumb drive is seen as negatively as a tiny bag of cocaine & you get arrested if you’re found with one
Anonymous asked: I just read the LM/Cat discussion and I'm wondering if she does something to those that upload/share her work. I've shared her book on a private tracker. Two weeks after it got taken down by dmca I got laid off, among other things - makes me wonder how far her rage will go.

TSA's brags about not catching any terrorists,... →

Note that they fail to point out that the firearms and knives would have been just as easily caught by pre-9/11 screening procedures. And that the C4 — their #1 “good catch” — was on the return flight; they missed it the first time. So only 1 for 2 on that one.

Welcome to 2012. You’re now one year closer to death.
You’re welcome.
Had a great time last night & today with abadwordforsomethingnice IRL. More in 2012 for sure.
Anyone else feel awkward about the flood of “Have a ______ New Year” posts coming from big businesses?
