Shorty calling people against gambling ads "anti gambling zealots" I guess me, a homebrew is also an "anti drinking zealot" since I don't want that advertised. I also love acid and don't want that advertised so I guess I'm an anti LSD zealot too.

I HATE our lords and masters so much. Their spineless doublespeak, their beady-eyed bean counting. It's so incredibly civilised to measure out acceptable allotments of misery.

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. - Ursula K Le Guin
