Prairie Wife by Cheryl St. John is only $1.99. This is a marriage in trouble story that damn near ripped my heart out when I read it back in 2005. A couple has to find their way back to each other after the tragic (off-page) death of their toddler son amzn.to/4ppvIGD #Romancelandia

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

I feel like the people saying this would be convenient or is common in other countries are missing the part where THIS IS NOT YOUR PERSONAL TOILET SHOWER. Someone else was shitting in your shower just a few hours ago!
I am staying at a place with the toilet in the shower and it is >$400 per night

I can't recommend Detectorists enough. l also can't explain why it's so good.
It's quiet, but not quite cozy.
It's hilarious & sad & kind but with an edge? Isobel Carr recced it to me years ago & I'm jealous I can't watch a first time again. But YOU CAN.
Bluesky people, do you need a break from the humdrum? Is the world ä little too harsh and unforgiving right now? Do you need a story with somebody who is like you, struggling to deal with ä weirdass and hostile world, but has a small gentle dream?

This show exists! Give it a go.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Very interesting thread. 🧐
An easy way to explain luddites:

Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.

And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.

That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

Shiiiiit. Book is due Friday & I just realized I need to add in a very dark new subplot that starts at chapter 4. 😬

Amen!
I have always found the POV wars somewhat amusing in a disconnected way, like I can not tell you what POV a book I enjoyed was written in most of the time, because if I'm sitting around paying attention to the POV then it is clearly not engaging me enough

One winter hour in my mountain office:
-It’s 20 degrees & snowing! I’ll wear my cozy sweatshirt.
-The sun came out, I might pass out from heat.
-Close the blinds, put on lighter shirt, no, no the sun has gone!
-Shivering, I clutch my electric handwarmer.
-Hands sweating, I strip down to nothing.

Listen, if AI can replace executives and NOT real workers, let’s get to it. 👋🏻
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.

I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?
Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests
Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.
