- In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “Across the world, we’ve seen democracy in retreat,” writes A.G. Sulzberger, the publisher of The New York Times. “This anti-press playbook is now being used here in this country — and it could not come at a more difficult time for the American press.”
- Maybe the NYT shouldn't have spent its time focused on normalizing fascism. I would never give you another click at this point, let alone another dollar.

- That scene in Family Guy was absolutely hilarious.
- It is astounding to me how many people are trying to equate TALKING TO COPS as a form of civil disobedience. Like, what are we doing here?

- At this point, I question if he is completely compromised. He helped Trump get elected by pushing people away from the D column. He does stupid stunts like this to get his name out there to get more eyes. It's just all so dumb...

- There are absolutely people who are interested in doing VA work for books, even those with small/no following, just for the credit and experience -- and small compensation. It's painful to see the mistreatment of writers and VAs by the Amazon money machine...
- They've been doing this for more than a year now. It's always smaller writers who get the "virtual voice" (VV) treatment by Amazon. I would never buy them due to the awful VV, and Amazon throws them at you as part of your Audible membership for free, showing just how much they value those works...
- They could pair up people looking to get into audiobook narration with new editors/producers and the lesser-known works -- but instead, they turned it into a shit-factory of VV.

- Aww, how adorable. Does she always turn left?

- They've been doing that for years at this point. When there's "virtual voice" or whatever listed as the reader, there's no audiobook.
- Holy shit. There is some tab among my 400+ tabs that suddenly, without reason, appears to have started playing a podcast... twice? Like it started randomly, and then 30 seconds later, it started again? So it's the same podcast repeating over itself AND I CANNOT FIND THE TAB. HELP.

- I have had it happen where some account sends something, they get moderated out of existence for spamming, but the content is still loaded in the background, just hidden (which might be worse). That is using Telegram, maybe WhatsApp has the same privacy bug? Regardless, just trying to help. :)
