Not entirely sure but that would likely run afoul of the legal agreement pertaining to the commercial exploitation of the album. Basically unless the current owner wants to lose even more money fans are fucked until 2103.

I've been marathoning Discworld books for the past 2 years, and I found absolutely nothing indicating that Sir Pratchett had any animosity or lack of acceptance towards LGBTQ people. If anything, he time and time again went out of his way of demonstrating that there's a lot more to people than what appearances and stereotypes would make one believe. Not just in the way of sexuality or gender, but also concerning race and nationality.

But Nolus, do you think the TERF movement wants to know that? Or even read their books?
They want an intelectual figurehead, since Rowling trashed her reputation in the mud and Margaret Atwood turned them down they are aiming for dead people now to validate their beliefs, because how can a dead person deny them. -
Yeah, Pratchett was definitely an ally.

How? That's literally the principle behind using manure and trash to produce biogas.

Reading about shit isn’t exactly something ordinary people generally have a particular interest in. And yes I say this in spite of once reading a Wikipedia entry detailing how to tell if you have healthy stool.

Shit, with all the talk about renewable sources of energy I thought biogas was more common in US.

Yakitate Japan did an aside on how shit would become a connoisseur type dish in the future I’m thinking that wasn’t true.

We’re too busy trying to disregard all other forms of alternative fuel sources.

I’m guessing trying to remind people that among the many shitty things the good book taught/encouraged was sexism.

It said "campus preacher", so I'm assuming they meant the preacher assigned to the church on campus. Most colleges of a decent size will have a church or even more than that for a place for their more religious students. On my campus we had both a Catholic church (well, the city's but it was right next to us) and a Protestant church. We also had available a rabbi, an imam, and a Buddhist monk to cover all the major bases. We also had a Pagan society but I don't think the college provided us with a witch, sadly.

"That’s what you get"
Her quote should be thrown back at her upon sentencing,
depending on the length of it.EDIT: Apparently multiple people are saying that the full details of the case involve the officer stalking the new couple for ages after a break up,
like a true Yandere. She apparently waited on her ex's bed for the other two to get home, ambushing them.That's pre-meditated and cold as fuck.
Surely the book must be thrown at her if this is the case…
Though it's always a struggle to get cops held fully accountable. -
Well fuck that definitely sounds even worse.

@MDL:

Though it's always a struggle to get cops held fully accountable.Well, she's a woman and, based on her name, I'm assuming, Asian. That should be enough that they won't have too many reservations about giving her the maximum penalty.
