If Children’s Health Defense was a random extremely online proto-org that was mostly a handful of people in a church basement, this story would still be unnerving. That this is about the conference of the org the Secretary of HHS chaired for the last 10 years is downright ice-in-veins bone-chilling.
It is also heartbreaking that many of the parents of these children are so deep in conspiracy land that they blame the hospitals not the lack of vaccines for their childrens' deaths. This op-ed begins with one such story:

To be fair, it’s in no small part because the adaptation is being made by the exact same people who made the (emergent, improvised) campaign, who in turn repeatedly refer to the AP as a “writer’s room.”
It’s a pretty stunning & singular circumstance, as @mariakalberto.bsky.social has studied.

One of the fantastic things about Critters (the Critical Role fandom, for the unfamiliar) is how chill they are about the animated adaptations taking liberties with the campaign. They understand it's all in service of telling a better story, unlike comic book fans who lose their minds over changes.

A thing about rewatching The Wire is you can see why the actors whose careers took off after it succeeded, but you can also see a couple of dozen GREAT performances from people who got zero bump from it. Some of them are local Baltimore actors, but a lot of it is just the dumb nature of the biz.

Whenever you see Bari Weiss' name, remember:
PROFESSOR REFAAT ALAREER TOLD US TO HOLD HER ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS MURDER!
Bari Weiss made his home a target, and they killed Dr. Alareer, his sister, her 3 children, his brother and that brother's son.
Bari Weiss is a proud propagandist for racist murder.

I got a Twitter DM from the publisher of a book by Jeffrey Haas (Fred Hampton's lawyer) that I'd recommended in a thread that went viral, thanking me for the unexpected spike in sales. I'm sure we're talking dozens, not hundreds, but they were like doing highkey internet sleuthing to figure it out!
I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Calling authors petit bourgeoisie is indeed insane. We are artisans and we deserve to profit from our labor.
That said, digital piracy has never been shown to represent actual lost sales, and may in fact DRIVE sales. I think authors should cool out about it.

Robert McNamara was one of the 20th Century's monsters, but his take on the strategic bombing and subsequent atomic bombing of Japan was the first big slap to my conventional, propagandized take on the Pacific War. He considered himself an unprosecuted war criminal.

Nothing but crickets from the Obama’s on the troubling things their former speechwriter keeps saying about hiding the Gaza genocide. This is exactly the reasoning Moms for Liberty used when they argued against teaching children the history of slavery and Jim Crow and for banning library books.
