Yes this 100% has made me stop donating to candidates. It simply will not stop.
Do they even understand how much they’re pissing people off by doing this. Whatever research that convinces them that spamming everyone is all upside is bullshit. It is like they’d rather have all my contact info to sell to other campaigns forever than receive my donation. It sucks.

More importantly, those sales teams have shrunk down significantly while lists grow so there’s actually no time for these teams to read and recommend like they could even 5 years ago. Sales teams in publishing have to sell hundreds of titles every year with very little time or information.
I spoke about corporate consolidation and how sales teams across imprints are told which books to prioritize. And also book coverage in general interest outlets -- where once these publications were tastemakers, now they want to talk about a book only once everyone's already talking about it.

An armed community member. Jesus. The public is getting REAL comfortable wandering into active shooting situations and firing off regularly.
Three children and a teacher were killed on Thursday in a shooting at an elementary school in Oregon, and the shooter was also dead, officials said. Authorities identified the gunman as a 16-year-old Bend resident and said he was shot by an armed community member. Follow live updates.

We also gotta get out of the panopticon mindset and start reading and dancing to music again and stop video-ing each other doing anything slightly weird and taking pictures of strangers on the subway like volunteer cops. Documenting an uninteresting life nonstop instead of living interesting life.

I mean, I would go with the premise of the original show/the singular episode they just did that was a massive success but I guess I’m just built different
There are currently no active conversations for a full ‘MUPPET SHOW’ series revival. Disney, The Muppets Studio and Point Grey Pictures have had difficulties with deciding on a premise for the series that they can all agree on. (Source: Deadline)
Dark shit. The only good news here is that some ICE officer is gonna electrocute himself trying to jerk off with these at some point.
This is genuinely so embarrassing. If I learned this about someone I knew, I'd have no choice but to excise them from my life for being the most pathetic person I've ever met.
Axios writer: I melted my brain with AI. Not only can I no longer read, but I don't even understand the purpose of reading anymore. Here's how you can also do this. www.axios.com/2026/08/11/r...

I wrote about a frustrating, brilliant novel that deals with how devoid of connections and curiosity the world has become, and then, fittingly, I wrote (again) about how AI is ruining the book publishing industry. www.themarisreview.com/the-maris-re...
