I see Trump embarrassed the country at a light-hearted family event. IT HASN'T EVEN BEEN ONE YEAR INTO THIS SECOND APOCALYPSE.

About 40% of SNAP recipients are children. Around half of ALL children in the country are covered by Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program.
And the so-called “party of family values” gutted both programs by billions of dollars.
Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

Literally buying one copy of a book at your local indie bookstore can mean the difference in whether they buy future books from that author.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

If you have ever thought that my journalism or my first book were net positives for the world, understand that they probably would not exist if I did not have a spouse who paid the mortgage. If I'd been a solo earner/parent, I likely would have left criticism, journalism or book writing long ago.
And the folks who are actually writing full-time generally only got there after years of day jobs, family support, or both.
The point of sharing this is not to demoralize anyone, but to let emerging writers know they're not failing if they can't make a living off writing alone. Almost no one can.

almost every novelist you read who's not from the airport fiction or bestseller sections is working a full on day job, including multi-award winners and absolute legends, or they have a spouse or trust that supports them. virtually across the board. just normalize in your mind that's how it works.

I see people in power don't even know what soldiers can and cannot do. Orders from a superior are presumed to be lawful. Otherwise, we wouldn't have a military. It is a crime to disobey an order. In this interview by Glenn Kirschner, the question is answered:

Morgan Geyser (23) was caught on the run because she was loitering, sleeping on sidewalk at some kind of truck stop. The person with her is over 40. Someone she called her friend. In the bodycam footage, that other person was shaking considerably.

After two infants died, the Louisiana Dept of Health under the leadership of the new incoming deputy director of the CDC, delayed notifying the public for months of a whooping cough outbreak. Instead, he ordered DOH to stop promoting vaccines. Pertussis is currently a national health crisis.
Louisiana officials waited months to warn public of whooping cough outbreak
After a whooping cough outbreak killed two infants, Louisiana health officials waited months to officially alert physicians or do public outreach. That's not the typical public health response.

Does anyone use the site "Skool"? I keep getting invitations. I glanced at it and had a good laugh when I found a pick up artist channel for $6k / year. There's a lot of "grow your money" types and unrealistic workout programs.
