Finishing this audiobook as we speak. I’ve enjoyed so much, that I might just start over at the beginning of the series. There’s so many characters and such great world building, that a refresher is in order. That and I just love all the characters so much.
Over a year of waiting finally come to an end.

Trump to UAE president: "We have a term 'groceries.' It's an old term but it means basically what you're buying, food, it's a pretty accurate term but it's an old fashioned sound but groceries are down."

Oh, they’re laughing at him, but it has nothing to do with his transportation.
Trump "has told aides and advisers that it is 'humiliating' for the president of the United States to fly in an outdated plane and that foreign leaders will laugh at him if he shows up at summits in the older aircraft .."

Every single commercially successful book I've ever written got rejected the first time I pitched it. Every single one.
Yes, I've seen the account that alleges to be from someone at a literary agency, making fun of queries that come through the door. If real, it's shitty, unethical behavior, also, I just wrote a best-selling book about the moon turning to cheese, so fuck anyone shaming writers for "out there" ideas.

All I keep thinking about is how Pete Hegseth raised questions of the competency of a Black four-star general and Air Force fighter pilot who was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Hegseth asked did he get the job “because of his skin color? Or his skill? We’ll never know, but always doubt.”
