I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

I’ve heard it’s unreadable.

What a terrible day to know how to read

Hahah. R1 flagship state school. Same diff really.

And not the university that wooed them based on the sports team and the promise to nab a job after.

The union is asking that you not patronize any Starbucks, even ones that aren't unionized, for the duration! Time to find your new favoriteocal coffee shop. To donate to their strike fund: sbworkersunited.org

Good lord, the horrific pedophile is guessing at the end of each sentence how to punctuate. Spaces? Periods? Combo of spaces and periods?

I'm not saying he'd have been a better person if he'd learned to write a sentence. But he wouldn't have been worse.

Starbucks workers this Thursday 11/13 are starting a long strike to win a first union contract

*** NOBODY SHOULD BUY ANYTHING FROM STARBUCKS AS LONG AS WORKERS ARE STRIKING ANYWHERE IN THE COUNTRY***

Consumer boycotts are very powerful when combined with workplace militancy

Where is this? A house where AI lives??

That seems like a lot of effort!

Exactly.

The way Kirkus did not name my book a best of 2025 after also not reviewing it.

The NXIVM extended universe is wild. Just when I think there can't be another documentary/podcast, it keeps on giving!

Celebrating like only writers can: SPELLCHECK AND PRINT, BABY!!
