Idle fanfic thought

Harry Potter / Culture crossovers really don't work very well because the magic doesn't work rationally, but Young Wizards magic would fit into the Culture very nicely - just another set of natural laws and a new way of manipulating them. I'd imagine a Mind would be VERY good at it...

Elephants

There's a petition to reverse Trump's idiotic ruling on ivory. So far a tad under half a million people have signed, but more would be nice

Good Grief

Just had to send a DMCA Takedown Notice for a site that has pirated copies of Diana: Warrior Princess and Elvis: The Legendary Tours. Not Flatland though, so I'll be charitable and assume that they didn't upload it because it's a charity product. Unfortunately it's more likely that they simply weren't interested. I think this is only the second time I've had to to this, let's hope things don't come in threes.

Taken down in a little over an hour - I think last time it took a couple of days, but that was a more complicated situation where there were a lot of magazines I'd written for that were pirated.
