D. Koolock-Ization

Mike Downey: I loved the etymology of being a freelancer. Your lance is free. You serve no Lord, right? The gig sounds less dimensional, more frivolous in the same way that the vocational arts used to be this really wonderful way to talk about the mastery of a skill. It literally kept the art in the very description of the thing. He says D. Koolock-ization feels like an assault on the vernacular. "We're trying every day we're trying to look at California law through that lens," he says.
