You and your publisher are probably aware of this, but I want to make sure you are. BLACKTOP WASTELAND is one of the books Anthropic, the company behind Claude AI, used in training. Anthropic must pay $1.5 billion for stealing authors' hard work, and that still isn't enough.

For all those who turned down your stories, I wish I could see their faces now. For those who accepted you, the world owes them tremendous gratitude.

Yeah JD, we remember. We will never forget your boss was best friends with the guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring.

Looks like you're about ready to get in the ring. I wonder what your wrestling moniker would be.

One of the biggest problems with the world is that fools are always so sure and certain about everything and intelligent people are so full of doubts and uncertainties.

Gov. Gavin Newsom: "Congress is nowhere to be found."
"Speaker Johnson has completely abdicated that responsibility. The rule of law has increasingly been given way to the rule of Don."

Warnock: Trump using military to convince us 'we are at war with one another'
Sen. Rev. Raphael Warnock on Trump deploying troops to Los Angeles: “He is using the symbolism and the uniforms of our service members in a campaign to do what he's been doing for 10 years, and that is to convince us that we are at war with one another.”

The ER tech just came in and asked me if I would like a warm blanket. I’m just a visitor and I greatly appreciated it. I am fearful for our healthcare system, but good providers give me hope.

Thanks for THE OLIGARCH'S DAUGHTER post. I finished reading it last night.
Paul has an oligarch, the FBI, and the CIA after him simultaneously. Here's my Russian translation: He's in deep shit.
Hey, teacher. You got another? I'd like some MORE homework, please.

Elon Musk claims "the leftists" are bad-mouthing his company. This isn't true. It's ordinary car buyers who are fed the fuck up.

I stopped shopping at Target as soon as they scrapped their DEI policies. Not gonna support a business that doesn't support my community & who easily folds to corrupt / toxic administrations

Ummmmm who’s gonna tell CNN that the boycott that started last month after they pulled their DEI stunt never ended? We ain’t going back to buy over-priced Chip and Joanna Gaines’ Chinese merch.
