Just to confirm that this was in my contract as well with Unbound (para 16 in mine) as I checked earlier. And I absolutely do intend to use it to tell Boundless to fuck right off and give me my rights back. The tiniest bit of sympathy they had from me is well gone.

How could 2 craft breweries (New Belgium and Bell's) put out more beer than 9 craft breweries backed by the biggest multinational macrobrewer in the world? In my column this week at @vinepair.com, I laid out why this was a long time coming for Anheuser-Busch—and why Molson Coors is next.

It's possible she may be guilty of this crime, but it's unreasonable for her to pay too high a price for 20 seconds of action. Think of her future! Girls will be girls.

"Yes, Cuomo is awful, but I have some policy differences with the progressives, so this is hard." This is not hard. What you do is, you set aside your precious little checklist, and YOU DON'T VOTE FOR THE AWFUL PERSON.

Absolutely surreal to have lived through the Napster days and watched as the titans of industry moved hell and high water to lock down any possible chance that someone's song might get swapped online without giving the studios a cut and now those same people are just like "well we gotta steal music"

Never make the mistake of thinking the BBC doesn't talk out of its arse when it comes to energy infrastructure and climate change. It's as bad as the rest of UK mainstream media.

That an unelected advisor does not want to "appease" elected MPs speaks volumes for the way party strategists think about Parliament. MPs are there to represent the concerns of their constituents. Govts that stop listening to MPs - like Thatcher on the poll tax or Blair on Iraq - usually regret it

Never take seriously those who ridicule low income people for having a smartphone or laptop. “If they’re so poor how did they buy an iPhone???” Because they’re trying to escape poverty, not the 1700s, genius. If you think basic tech access is unnecessary or a luxury, survive a month without it.
