You guys know that boy who beat Tetris about a week ago now? He's from Oklahoma! (Yes, i'm just now learning this but also: Finally, something good from our state!)
But I've been thinking about this news in relation to that one Sky News reporter (you know the one), and I'm starting to wonder if her hostility was not only because of his age and her lack of understanding about how important and credible video games are to a younger generation, but also because he's an American.
To add insult to injury, he's an American from the Midwest from a town no person in Europe has ever heard of.
He's not from Boston, LA, Tampa, or any other buzzworthy place. He's a boy from a small area whose done this amazing thing, but because of all these reasons, it was beneath her to have to report about such a person.
And honestly if that's the case... she deserves to work at Sky News.
Oklahoma is attempting to pass a bill that would ban explicit romance novels. Authors, narrators, and sellers could all face fines of up to $100,000 and up to 10 years in jail for each instance.
If you live in OK, call your representative and tell them this bill should not be allowed to pass.
This is likely a test case. Republicans will try to pass it in OK and if it passes other states will likely try to pass similar laws.
In the meantime, get physical copies of books you like. Download those pdfs. Archive your AO3 stories and keep them on a physical hard drive. (Storing those files in the cloud could be problematic in the future as the company managing the cloud service can see what your files are)
