As an author, I don't make a whole lot of money, but at the same time I need to read a lot of books to stay aware of trends and support my fellow authors. Obviously if I spend all my profits on other people's books, I'm not coming out ahead!

So: ways to read lots of indie books for cheap.

Another baby has just died of whooping cough in Kentucky, thanks to RFK Jr. and his merry band of anti-vaxxers.

My feeling toward RFK Jr. and the Republican Senators who confirmed him is utter contempt.

This is why disabled people are shouting about the eugenicist undertones of Assisted Dying policies.

All he needed was a specialized mattress, which all hospitals should have, and proper infection control.

He just wanted to be treated with dignity.

The coroner's inquest was concluded today, and it turns out he contracted Covid during his hospital stay as well.

A man with disabilities goes into a hospital for care, and comes out four days later so sick he feels like a 'burden' and opts for Assisted Dying.

Normand Meunier is a Canadian man with quadriplegia who accessed MAiD (Medical Assistance in Dying) after being left for 96 hours on a stretcher in the ER.

His requests for a specialized mattress were denied.

He wasn't turned regularly.

He developed bed sores so bad, he opted to end his life.
