The Finch Formerly Known As Gold

Quote of the week

Veronica Nichols, on the asininity of "blog wars":

Disagreeing in text form with something someone else has typed is not "silencing." To pretend that's the case is pretty much the same thing as belittling actual instances of silencing — ya know? The kind where tyrannical governments murder people and destroy evidence?

Look, y'all. The internet is broken down as follows: 70% porn, 10% pictures of cats, 9% MySpace, 5% YouTube, 5% useful information, and 1% blogs.

That, my friends, is not the make up of a battlefield.

On the other hand, there really are a few seriously sick jokers out there, and sometimes the power of Total Global Humiliation seems insufficient to deal with them, so be sure to keep your powder dry.
