mateytheir logic is, we can offer MORE books if we placate these drm arseholesMar 16 12:53
mateywhich is a position im againstMar 16 12:54

DaemonFCIf someone were to be smart enough to "defrag" the offices that are not going to close and convert the empty buildings to urban greenhouses, imagine all of the food they could produce.Mar 16 20:11
