What grades determine:

  • Your ability to memorize mostly useless things
  • Your ability to regurgitate information in the way others want you to
  • Your ability to understand what adults want from you and give it to them
  • Your tolerance for working on tasks you don’t find useful because others want you to do them or believe them to be helpful/socially acceptable

What grades do NOT determine:

  • Your intelligence
  • Your creativity
  • Your emotional capabilities
  • Your likeliness to succeed
  • Whether you’re a good person

I’m not saying that we are all criminals for participating in file sharing. It is my hope that content distributors will start to realize why people pirate. That it isn’t just because it is free. It’s also goddamned convenient. They need to accept that times have changed. We don’t want to buy their DVDs. We don’t want overpriced cable bundles with 40 channels we will never watch. Photoshop should not cost 700 goddamn dollars. We want safe, reliable content available for download instantly and priced within reason. By not providing this, distributors are almost begging people to steal their shit."

As so eloquently put by Frogman.

Steam is a fantastic example of this. Big media really need to start thinking outside of the box, get with the times, and comprehend fully the changing landscape.

Creative media developers also need to realise that increasingly large numbers of what would once have been considered ‘lay people’ are now very much competent in the use of complex creative software, only they don’t have the budgets of professional studios to be able to afford the absurd price tags attached to products such as Photoshop and Macromedia software.

lie of our reunion | a playlist for nigel and alex (for fulgurite)
Even though his jaw hurts and the muscles of his face scream in protest after being so freshly-bruised, Nigel opens his mouth a little wider — not really doing much beyond trying to get Alex to give him more. More of what exactly isn’t clear. More of his anger, more of his body. Nigel doesn’t really care. As he does so, his mind wanders a bit as he remembers what it was like to cut out that one man’s tongue. He’d put it in a jar for the doctor for her to keep as a sign of devotion and Nigel wonders if he were to put Alex’s tongue in a jar whether he would give it to the doctor as well or simply keep it for himself. It’s a nice thought.

There’s an important difference between saying “I don’t enjoy that” or “I don’t understand what draws people to that” and saying “that sexual act is bad/sick/weird.” When someone expresses an objection to a sexual practice, there’s often a theme of judging the people who do it and of saying that there’s something wrong with them for enjoying it. Even if it’s not intentional, that judgment is still likely to come out."
