The day the whole world went away

male coworkers after you joke with them a little bit

There was recently a copyright infringement case in YA and I need everyone to know that the following sentence was in the legal decision:

“Regarding setting, the court held that both works taking place in Alaska high schools was not protectable because Alaska is a public place and setting a teen novel in a high school is a common genre convention.”

I've read the entire decision (skimming over the purely legal precedent/definitions bit) and here are some of my favorite bits:

THE JUDGE: after review of all her liked posts, we determine the defendant to be sexually perfect and of sweetheart nature

Okay I don’t really do this often but we have bills do today and we’re kind of desperate and needs 270 dollars or else we’re screwed so um…

Also please feel no pressure to do so we can find other ways this is just easier 😓
