My campaign to produce Shakespeare's Sonnets: A Graphic Novel Adaptation needs your help! Please sign up at https://www.patreon.com/fisherking for access to exclusive content and the opportunity to be a part of the magic!

I'm also producing a podcast discussing the sonnets, available on
industrial curiosity, itunes, spotify, stitcher, tunein and youtube!
For those who prefer reading to listening, the first 25 sonnets have been compiled into a book that is available now on Amazon and the Google Play store.

different types of language

this note inspired by a link from nystire:

the english language thrives precisely because it couldn't give a damn about rules. whatever sounds right and makes sense is in. dictionaries and grammar books only define what is essentially a snapshot of the current state of affairs at their time of writing, they're not a law unto anyone except those who mistakenly believe that they should be a law.

software code, on the other hand? too damn right, people who don't follow the (simple) rules should be banished.
