I ... Did not know this. Buy the damn book!
I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Watch these rap niggaz get all up in your guts
French-vanilla, butter-pecan, chocolate-deluxe
Even caramel sundaes is gettin touched
And scooped in my ice cream truck, Wu tears it up

One time you walked through the night
One time I lost my mind
One time you found your life
One time I had no right
One time I walked through the night
One time you lost your mind
One time I found my life
One time you had no right

[Chorus]
When I see the northern lights
I lose my mind

The scammer is concerning but how where was able to get so many stories published is just as alarming. The death of fact checking is the death of journalism

Bellingcat’s contact email has always been a magnet for people with fairly unusual views; paranoid delusions, sprawling conspiracies, the works. But recently, the pattern has shifted, we’re seeing more and more emails clearly written with ChatGPT.

When we first heard about chess boxing, we thought it was a joke. Chess boxing? Could it really be a thing? Turns out, it is, and it's just what it sounds like: alternate rounds of chess and boxing. cbsn.ws/3K6fXEU
Checkmate or knockout: The sport of chess boxing combines brains and brawn
Chess boxing, a sport testing both brains and brawn, has been steadily rising in popularity. It's been a big hit in Russia, with the U.S. now catching up, one fighter at a time.

In my brief block by block encounters with crossing guards I see how drivers menace them, inching towards. What a whole shift must be like.

The Premier and other politicians, Toronto Police, other forces, have taken the lid of all this. A death drive amid other bs rhetoric of public safety.
A crossing guard was killed by the driver of a dump truck yesterday. absolutely heartbreaking.
Look at our intersections, look how hostile these are for people/children - this is what we continue to build and defend at all costs. These aren't accidents, these are results. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
