Dear Internet
You know that thing, where people write stuff, and it’s therefore their property, and you can’t steal it? That applies to work posted on the Internet as well.
It’s not okay to post what someone has posted on their website on yours, even if it’s because you really really liked the post and you want to show it to everyone. Republishing someone’s work without permission...
Meta and wise words.

katoleary:
how there are some people you only see once in a while, but every time you end up having a real conversation and saying things you didn’t even know you wanted to tell anyone? It’s nice to be around someone who (at least convincingly fakes that s/he) is legitimately interested in what you have to say. It is honestly such a rarity for me these days that it’s something I really...

Just bought 5 plays...
dorianisms:
For class. They are: Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf (Albee) Private Lives (Coward) Doubt (Shanley) The Seagull (Chekhov, trans. Stoppard) and Cloud Nine (Churchill).
There are others I need to read for my classes as well, but these ones were ones I knew I wanted in my permanent collection. The others I’ll probably take out from the library, and decide whether I want my own copy...
