When Amazon launched in 1995, there were 5,500 indie bookshops in the U.S., with 7,000 locations. By May of 2023, that number had decreased to 2,185 indies & 2,599 locations.
When you purchase audiobooks via Libro.fm vs. Audible, you directly support indie bookshops. Let's make that number grow ❤️

I just got a report that a terminated employee from another agency got their job back after replying to the termination email with their good perf appraisal.
If you are still connected, might as well try. It makes for good documentation if nothing else.
Let me know. So far only this one anecdote.

"Stop romanticizing toxic tropes in fiction"
Bro literally never heard of 'Romanticism' (1790 - c. 1850) and how it's a deliberate rejection of order, harmony, balance, and rationality and celebrates the irrational, personal, emotional, weird, occult, and monstrous by design, how embarrassing 😞

Perhaps Trump thinks that if he says DEI enough, you'll forget about all the things he did to weaken aviation safety. But you're smarter than that, right?

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
