Report from hour 4 at AWP. I was wandering the street near the hotel while my roommate took a zoom, puffing a preroll, then stopped to get an ice cream. Walked by a local TV news crew, got interviewed.

(1) After each engagement, Parties to the conflict shall, without delay, take all possible measures to search for and collect the shipwrecked, wounded and sick, to protect them against pillage and ill-treatment, to ensure their adequate care, and to search for the dead and prevent their being despoiled.
(2) Whenever circumstances permit, the Parties to the conflict shall conclude local arrangements for the removal of the wounded and sick by sea from a besieged or encircled area and for the passage of medical and religious personnel and equipment on their way to that area.

As I've addressed this issue in a few interviews today, here's Article 18 of the Second Geneva Convention which bears on the duties to search for and collect the shipwrecked following engagements at seaβ€”such as the sinking of the Iranian warship in the Indian Ocean.

If you notice yourself turning to ai for solace, go outside and talk to a tree instead

If no tree is available, talk to the earth

If no earth is visible, talk to the sky

If the sky is hidden from your view, kill your jailer

A man asked me last night what publishing needs to do for literary fiction to begin appealing to men again. I said, as nicely as I could, that, with over 2,000 books published every Tuesday, of which many would appeal to men, it’s not a publishing problem, it’s a men problem.

Has anyone else had the built-in recording app in their iPhone just stop recording a phone call for no known reason? It happened to me last night (I was interviewing Lindy West!), and it did announce it was stopping but still: why? what the hell?

Also that Jimmy Carter wrote a book whose title made the case more than three decades ago.

I don't remember a lot from that time because I was basically bedbound due to the meds I was on. Worst pain of my life.

You're so kind! I'm in NJ now but I agree that a good dental team is crucial.

I had a cracked tooth that led to an infecdtion that presented atypically and so wasn't picked up when I showed up at the ER with pain at a 9 (worse than my unmedicated childbirth). I was misdiagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia and treated for it for a few weeks. Thankfully my dentist looked closer.

I was definitely a bit messed up by this. Considered β€œhottest” when I was a chain smoker destroying my lungs and general health. A friend called me β€œwest village thin” then. I’m NJ plump now πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

When we lived in Boston there was a boil water order that shuttered all Dunkins for two days & people were so batshit furious about it that when they reopened on a Tuesday they were giving away a free coffee per patron all day long. Coming for people’s Coolatas is how you get American Revolution II.

On the train to AWP in Baltimore. There's a woman across from me who has her hair pulled up into an evil eye hairclip that's seriously like 6 inches long. I want to hear her story.

RFK Jr. wants Dunkin’ to prove drinking its iced coffee is safe - The Boston Globe The warning comes as Kennedy is leaning heavily into his agenda to improve American diets.

This moron has no idea how much of a third rail this is. If he goes through with a public fight with Dunkin he will never live this down. In the words of my people "fuck ya motha."

If you maintain your work and business WITHOUT generative "A.i.," you will be ahead of the game when these companies jack up their prices before crashing and burning.

Also, your work won't be trash.
