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.

Strike vote starts tomorrow for 16K nursing workers
These workers saw a real wage cut of nearly 25% in their last two contracts, and their last contract expired over a year and a half ago.

Alberta announced today the COVID-19 vaccine this fall will cost us $100 per dose.
So for my family of four, that'll be $400.
Alternatively, we could spend $400 on an overnight trip to Golden or Fernie, B.C., get immunized for free, and make a little mountain vacation out of it.

5 months later. Carney is terrible. PP is still 50x worse.
They apparently don't make politicians I want to vote for, just those I feel I have to vote for to avoid something worse.

Love that BlueSky has reached the point where there's a MCOTD. My favourite thing about the old bad place was the collective infatuation that some days brought.
I have no idea what happened today or who the main character is but I am determined to find out!
