Law Above Government

The law must stand as a fixed, independent framework that governs the government itself—not as a flexible instrument the state wields to justify its actions. If those in power can rewrite, reinterpret, or bypass the rules at will, then legality becomes mere policy, and justice becomes a matter of convenience. True accountability requires that the constitution be difficult to change, that courts operate without political interference, and that every official—from the highest minister to the lowest clerk—answers to the same code as the ordinary citizen. When the government is bound by the law, the people retain their liberty; when the law bends to the government, the people lose their shield. That separation is not abstract philosophy—it is the mechanical guardrail that keeps power from becoming tyranny.

I Need To Stop Making Promises I Can't Keep

Building fanfiction.lol taught me that some promises are impossible to keep. I wanted canonical tags for everything and 'write whatever you want' as a tagline, but Canadian obscenity laws and the philosophical complexity of tag wrangling forced me to adjust. Here's what I learned about running a community archive, the legal constraints I face, and the promises I can still keep.
