NEW: The Pentagon told journalists it will require them to pledge they won’t gather any information — even unclassified — that hasn’t been expressly authorized for release, and will revoke the press credentials of those who do not obey. @washingtonpost.com
Pentagon demands journalists pledge to not obtain unauthorized material

The books I’ve read in 2024. Didn’t think was going to like and started it and then I confirmed I didn’t like it. Then started to like it, then really like it. Characters speak in abstractions about often mundane parts of the human condition. Literary ayahuasca.

The books I’ve read in 2024. Most often compared to Pynchon, Erickson writes like no one else. He’s his own genre. The most underrated writer alive as best as I can tell. I’ll be completing my 10th of 10 SE novels this month and loved every one.
