2/2: This should be on your to-be-read list, right after you catch up with her journey that began with the Bill Hodges trilogy, The Outsider and If It Bleeds.
1/2: Finished Holly by Stephen King earlier this week. This is a fantastic - and disturbing - story that showcases one of the things I love best about his writing. He always delivers great, memorable characters that you can't help feeling strongly about and become invested in.
Some folks love the Holly Gibney character, and others do not. I think there's something really special about her, and how her character has grown from her first appearance in Mr. Mercedes.
Randahl FinkI have often wondered why Putin's attack on #Ukraine angers me so deeply.
Walking on the beaches of Lillebælt, I realized it is because of this:
To this day, we Danes still see the concrete fortifications left by the Nazis on our shores, because 1 fascist leader got the insane idea, he had the right to topple our democracy.
He had no right. All he had was the delusion he was somehow supreme to everyone else.
We stopped the fascist in 1945.
We will stop the fascist now.

flexghost.Some Republican women are switching parties from outrage at Ron DeSantis
Hold up.
I’ll translate from Republican to English:
Desantis signed SB 1416 into law ending permanent alimony. Money is now based on the length of marriage
So they’re not outraged for:
Inspecting youth genitalia
Destroying trans rights
Human trafficking migrants
Destroying Florida’s economy
Attacking teachers
Rampant insurance corruption
No. Something happened to them, personally
And it’s about money
Need another opinion on the #privacy nightmare that is the new #Threads app from #Facebook / #Meta ? From the article: "...mandatory disclosures required on iOS shows the app may collect highly sensitive information about users in order to profile their digital activity — including health and financial data, precise location, browsing history, contacts, search history and other sensitive information."
Dwight SilvermanHoly crap. Take a look at all the personal data that “may" be collected by Threads, Meta’s upcoming new Twitter clone.
Very on-brand, and a privacy nightmare.
