This is probably not the case. He wants to be able to "see the boxes." Rather, as a typographer he would have to have been a master of stippling. It's not so much that his "vision is blurry" any more so than your peripheral vision is blurry. It's just that he only has peripheral vision to work with. You can still see these details with enough zoom, which is what the computer affords him. I suppose he could also do it with traditional optics (e.g. a jeweler's loop), but that would probably make the actual painting part pretty awkward.

How can you talk about board games and not mention Catan?

Since when is trading in futures of a commodity you do business in insider trading? Isn't that the purpose of the commodities market? Also, storing commodities for future sale at higher prices is exactly how people do business in commodities. Why do you think wheat silos exist? Cornering markets is unseemly, but most people that have tried that with any major commodity end up ruined. To pretend that GS has the clout to corner the oil market is absurd. I don't understand the complaint.

The fuck happened to Hannah Montana?

He's all "You mean coitus?"

I don't know how much you all know about vision, but for him to create those with central vision loss is absolutely jaw dropping. It just goes to show that the art is in your mind, not on the paper.

@blankfist Very strange indeed. How far do you suppose most people have to walk in order to "originally appropriate" land? How was land "originally appropriated" in the first place?

I'm sorry, that must be a miscommunication. It isn't that they are "forced" to stay on the island necessarily. It's that they lack the means to leave. That is, chopping down a tree to build a boat would be stealing, and they can't swim the distance necessary to get to any other dry land.

@blankfist Okay... for example: suppose a wealthy family owned an entire island in the north sea. They choose voluntarily to allow people access to their land's resources in exchange for labor, but only at a very low level of compensation. They never parted with any land (that is, you had no option to be on the island without being on their land). Assuming you were born into this situation, were unwilling to agree to their terms, and were unable to leave the island, what freedom is left? How would one "reappropriate" that land without violating your second principle?

@blankfist How does one originally appropriate that which was already appropriated?

She never listens. I asked for a sammich.

SAY WONDERFUL AGAIN!

There you go makin' assumptions.

In fairness, doesn't Beardyman usually use looper pedal?

Is that what you call a hummer?
