Always worth taking a moment to remind you if you’re pirating authors’ book you’re a shitty person. You can rail that our profession isn’t a profession all you want. You can paint yourself as an online revolutionary liberating ideas. It’s all bullshit. You’re just a shitty person who hates writers.

First of all it's not a "distraction" that state governments are banning books. Second, the people banning books are *also* gutting public education! It's the same fucking problem! www.nytimes.com/2024/03/06/o...
