Federal prosecutors had a warrant to collect evidence from Good's vehicle, but Trump leaders said to drop it. About a dozen prosecutors have since departed.

I've given a lot of support to writers over the years, and someone said, "You should charge for this kind of service."
I never wanted to... but now I do. Why? So I can take the money and turn it around to pay other writers to grow @debutiful.bsky.social even more!

Great read from @lydiakiesling.bsky.social. Debutiful lives and dies with book listicles and interviews. Never dipped into reviews for a myriad of reasons. I think a lot of what I do is interesting, but I wish it had more depth.
When the AI slop summer reading list dropped last year I knew I had to write about making book lists. Thanks to @thebaffler.com for letting me go long with bewildered nostalgia & regret on 20 years of Internet book culture & how we made the slop book list inevitable. thebaffler.com/after-the-fa...

The labor involved in making lists was as close to the opposite of a transcendent reading experience as a disillusioned culture worker could get.
