The Senate just approved the bill requiring the Justice Department to release the Epstein files, just one day after the House passed the legislation almost unanimously. The measure now moves to Trump.

I've been asked this question at events. Do you write for the audience and my question in response is, who is the audience? What is the audience? Do you mean what is "expected" by western readers? Do you mean what a certain magazine seems to buy? What's trending with publishers? Is it a monolith?
Been pondering the "write for yourself / no, write for an audience" convos I've seen going around. This obviously varies for everyone, but for me it's "write for myself, edit for an audience." I can't finish a project unless I retreat into a bubble and pretend nobody will ever read it--

Asking 42 million to reapply, and then thinking the USDA is going to process those applications in an expeditious manner, is obscene.

Just a reminder, people can both say occasionally reasonable things and also be blazingly racist Nazis who should be sent out to the corn field and not embraced as the future of your party.

The scale at which the President is profiting from his post is staggering. Perhaps past presidents and their self-dealing snuck out with a million or so — a briefcase full of cash. This time, it's billions, which you should visualize as a fleet of school buses filled with Benjamin Franklins.

Many hazards result from genuinely useful products. Lead paint was also really useful: durable and resistant to moisture. Asbestos is fire-proof and good insulation: our non-carcinogenic insulation options are imperfect. Cigarettes helped people self-medicate for mild mood disorders.

Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.

Trump is ordering Bondi to investigate Democrats tied to Epstein so DOJ can claim an “ongoing investigation” & block release of the files - even if Congress votes to unseal them. They will claim releasing the files would interfere with a current investigation
