Remember: they used thousands of academic books too! If you’re a scholar, check for your books too. This isn’t just novelists and pop writers, it’s academic books too!
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action

I had a call from my car insurance company and they found some surprise! Additional damage bringing the total expenses to now over $7,800 BUT they were able to get my windshield in even though it was supposedly backordered and that was the biggest delay concern so 🎉

John Oliver's season finale was great, glad he focused on public media, and how important it is to fund. Red states tend to benefit from it the most.

He has an auction site up to help raise money, johnoliversjunk.com, which even has an actual Bob Ross painting on it (but it's at 1 million).

We’ve had a wind storm all day and I scheduled out my day accordingly. What I did not consider, however, was the possibility that I didn’t lose power, but that they DID lose power across the street where my water well is.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

Charlotte friends, if you know an org that needs whistles, you know who to call. 💕
I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte.

ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.

We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:
“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.

But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:

Rudy Bridges is younger than the Sitting President of the United States and 29 sitting United States Senators
It’s useful for people of my generation to be reminded that this wasn’t that long ago. Ruby Bridges isn’t just still alive—she’s only 71, not ancient!
65 years ago on Nov. 14, little Ruby Bridges was escorted into an all-white elementary school in New Orleans. Norman Rockwell, renowned for blissful depictions of Americana, did this remarkable painting for Look magazine. Printed as a double page, over-size spread, it's his masterpiece.

I don’t know if this is everywhere, but my Dollar General has a 3 day sale ending today (11/15). Disney toys were buy one, get one 50% off. And at my store, we had a bin for our local toy drive. I bought four Disney toys and dropped them straight in the bin before leaving the building.

There’s a woman in tiktok who must be relatively wealthy. She keeps a fridge for all of her delivery drivers to get drinks from, puts out snacks, has a white board for them to make suggestions, and recently put out a claw machine game where every prize has $5 in it.

Twenty-one people were arrested Friday morning during a protest outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement processing center in Broadview following a skirmish in which several police officers were injured.
