That article was really worth reading. Thank you for posting it. I didn’t know how much upheaval there has been surrounding endorsements in the field of journalism. It’s crazy that we’ve gotten to the point where the owners of two major papers both got involved to stop an endorsement over the same election against the same candidate. The article mentions that people have been canceling their subscriptions in protest, but… it doesn’t seem like enough.
If someone by now isn’t concerned about defeating Trump, there’s literally nothing we can do about it other than to call them out for being a shitbag for voting 3rd party.
It must be nice to have the luxury of making a protest vote. They must think their life wouldn’t change either way.
But it’s literally how it works in the USA with voting. It shouldn’t, but it DOES.
Well, I had been happy with YouTube music for years, but I’m frustrated by this at the moment:
Yeah, thank fuck he beat Trump or both Ukraine and Gaza would already be gone by now. I really wish he would stop selling weapons to Israel though.
Hi! Yes, I have a question.
Grocery prices have been hitting hard lately, and I’m looking into alternative meat sources. I would like to know if I were to join your company, could we literally eat the rich? Or, second best, take all their stuff?
Ugh. We caught a kid doing that in my high school library last May. We radioed for help. The campus supervisor walked him outside, talked to him about it, and sent him back to us to finish the test he was working on. I couldn’t believe it. Later, we told admin about it and had to write witness statements. He was a freshman and said it’s what he does at home when he’s sitting around, and didn’t realize he was doing it. None of the students know, as far as I’m aware. We all kept it very quiet.
There are three subreddits I miss after leaving reddit, and one of them is r/freefolk.
Brando Sando has answered the question a bunch of times, and said he’s not interested at all. Also, GRRM previously said he would never allow it to be finished by anyone else. Who knows? Maybe the publisher will force it.
Those were a little too intense for me. The acting was phenomenal and the story drew me in, but it was too much tragedy porn for me. Daredevil was also pretty dark, but not like Jessica Jones and Luke Cage
Oh good call! I bet you’re right!
For you and anyone else who missed it:
“And I gotta tell ya; I can’t wait to debate this guy,” Walz continued, before pausing for dramatic effect. "That’s if he’s willing to get off the couch and show up. “See what I did there?”
The crowd was roaring. I’m not sure if he really paused for dramatic effect. They wouldn’t have heard him if he had said it right away. But either way, it was very funny.
That’s what happened to us with the Camp Fire, but a guy started the Park Fire (currently at 401,199 acres and 27% contained).
Fun fact! Erin Hunter is a pseudonym for a collective of authors including Tui Sutherland! She wrote Wings of Fire after she stopped writing/editing Erin Hunter books. I found out while I was working in an elementary school library.
Not my favorite, but I recently finished the A Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J. Maas. Nothing in them is original, and she heavily borrows from folk tales and mythology, but she makes it very satisfying. She’s REALLY good at knowing what her audience wants, imo, so it was fun to read.
It’s not that easy. They don’t have much money, and that’s why they were living where they were. The city nearby where everyone works became too expensive after the Camp Fire (rent has almost doubled) and then COVID. It’s really hard. They would’ve had to start over completely somewhere else without nearby family, friends, or their jobs. It’s just not that simple. Towns burning down is a pretty recent recurrence.
Oh weird. I don’t think I’d ever heard that before. Wikipedia said it was a “somewhat common” practice in the south at the time.
