I am high and listening to Snoop reading me Danish jokes about Germans from World War II
I have an app that reads to me in Snoop Dogg‘s voice. Also, I study the Holocaust so the stuff I need read is pretty terrible — but somehow easier to get through coming from Snoop

Hello #BookSky and #author friends. As host of a book livestream, I’ve been making book trailers for three years. Recently, friends have said getting a trailer done costs $$$$. It shouldn’t. If you need a trailer, let me know. I don’t use AI, I license everything. Some examples follow:

a PSA: most nonprofit newsrooms right now are probably participating in the NewsMatch program RIGHT NOW. That’s a program funded by a few foundations that “matches” your end-of-year donation.
If you set up $10 monthly, that literally unlocks $120 from NewsMatch.
So who could you support?

Hey, I'm going to take a scroll through these wishes and call out a few that I find extra adorable. They're all be under $100. Let's end a mostly crappy week in this country by granting some wishes for kids in foster care.
🧵 We are, in fact, doing the thing again for @onesimplewish.bsky.social. In 2024, the kind people of this community put the money cannon on blast to help grant $75K in wishes for children in foster care. Toys, tech, a suit for job interviews. Here we go again! 👇

The New York Times' story about Trump calling for the execution of members of Congress ran on Page 16 today, with an itty-bitty promo on the front about halfway down the page.
No wonder Trump thinks he can get away with anything.
