@drwho Again, yes, always. Or I wouldn't have said it in public.

@strypey I really should make a list of folks who gave more-or-less permanent permission to refer to.

Thank you, though.

If that works for you. But you could also just open the post in a browser, using their instance. If you can see it, it's public, and you have a well-established right to quote it. One that needs a robust defence against the CopyMafia ongoing attempts to erode our Fair Use rights.

People want to use the power to publish comments to the world, without having to take responsibility for them. I don't buy that.

@drwho @strypey if you do make that list, you can put me on it. Anything public from me is fair game, but maybe ask on the followers-only.

What I'd love is to see *where* I get quoted blobcat3c

Let's select a well known figure and, hypothetically, drop them into a different time and place, specifying the setting.
