7 months agoWhat a ridiculous way to measure books, I love it.
Grabbed the last 12 inches of (physical) books I read and added em up. Mix of very recent and older books (much thinner pages and smaller type/font), and now I want to see how much difference those variations make when comparing different stacks of books, but goddammit I know I had other things I was gonna do today
There are innumerable horror stories from cottage vendors bumping up against the money and strict gatekeeping of the nationally established conglomerates. This was in the US, but I know Canada also has, new, laws on the books to specifically prevent plant based cheeses from referring to their product as “cheese,” despite being the exact same process and a final product that you wouldn’t know side by side to the dairy version.
I’m not a vegan, but this is the just same ole regulatory capture bullshit that we’re seeing w ev cars, good imported rum, net neutrality and everything else
