    You can get pretty far by stealing from others too

    You really, really can't.

    No, you can. Literally every single creator owes a massive debt to people that inspired them. If you look at their early work you will absolutely find a good amount of it cribbed (intentionally and unintentionally) from people before them. Very, very few people arrive as this totally original genius.

    Being inspired by and stealing from are two entirely separate things.

    They're closer than you think.

    i don't think I'd ever use kevlar rope for any load bearing applications because it self abrades and is degraded by UV. Spectra is where it's at.

    Good to know. Fortunately it's not load-bearing here. All the mechanical stress should be on the chain and the eye hook drilled into the wood core.

    I may replace the chain with welded link and swivels for that reason.

    I totally fell in love with The Leftovers last night. Lost is one of my favorite shows ever and last night it really felt like watching Lost. I obviously can't be sure it'll stay like this or continue to be good in any way but I currently am fully behind the show.

    so if you're thinking about it, watch it!

    There is straight up plagiarism, which is taking shit verbatim, but there are subtler forms of theft. You can steal cadence, voice, structure, pretty much anything else. You can also steal content and rearrange it. All of that stuff is a degree of thievery.

    A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

    i have a shirt from a band I like that I bought on their EU tour

    they very obviously did up a load of GIldan shirts for the tour as everything on their US store is American Apparel or Bay Island

    i am this close to buying the exact same shirt online just to have it be a from a different manufacturer
