This [link] came across my dash. It's an artist complaining that Disney stole her work--both line for line, and then a redraw based on it. I'm not sure how much control one can exert over the redraw (it's Alice doing the same thing as her picture, framed the same way, but a Disney styled Alice, not the ornate one like hers). But since they also seem to have used it identically, that becomes less relevant.
And now I have to track down that site that was for people who had their art stolen.
The clouds are moving so fast that it feels like watching a time lapse.
It is crazy windy outside.
Still on conference calls. Another 90 minutes to go before I get a break.
It's gorgeous here, and will be close to 70 today if it's not already. Unfortunately it's also stupid hot in this loft, and the ceiling fan doesn't work.
W/rt Thatcher, I know we're not supposed to speak ill of the dead, but Roz Kaveney has no such qualms:

Pretty impressive, and chilling.

I never understood that. What about Hitler or Stalin? Just because you're dead you shouldn't get a pass.
Yeah Maggie Thatcher can go rot in hell. Dag it's crazy gusty.
While I don't think you should worry about speaking ill of the dead, I'm not happy she's dead. It's just a thing. Her death doesn't change the world in any way for me. Hey, maybe alive and intermittently aware of her decay is an apter punishment than oblivion.
EXHAUSTED. I am blaming the wind, and the things it put in my eyes.
