"Your failure to plan does not constitute my emergency".

Sounds to me like they're just choosing not to comply with FOIA, a federal law.

This is a bullshit ruling and everyone involved with it knows it. They have my information, I require a copy of my information, end of story. Not providing it is noncompliance.

But of course nothing will happen because the American federal government is broken.

What if I didn't turn on my office lights, so now I can't read any written materials. I decline the use of technology like lights to help me with this. Now we don't have to fill requests for written materials.

I threw away all speakers and headphones. Any audio cannot be processed because we lack the technology and we do not have to get more.

See how stupid this is???
