Reader. Author PA. Copy editor and proofreader. Cat herder. Opinionated. Sometimes breathing.
Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.
OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.
Millions of books and scientific papers are captured in the collection’s current iteration.
Too many people forget that Ivanna Trump had to take out of her autobiography the bit about how he snatched parts of her head bald after a bad hair replacement incident, then raped her.
(from 2016, paywalled, sorry)
For his 1993 book, “The Lost Tycoon,” Harry Hurt III acquired Ivana’s divorce deposition, in which she stated that Trump raped her.
Trump minimizes domestic abuse during a talk at the Museum of the Bible: "Things that take place in the home, they call crime ... If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say this was a crime, see?"
So beautiful. So expensive. So going to make my savings account cry this month at his yearly vet visit. Buy my books and keep this cat in the lifestyle he's become accustomed to. payhip.com/skyladawncam...

I didn't know that either. I use a Samsung Galaxy watch that syncs to my Samsung cell. It does keep track of my O2 and that's handy.
Childhood literacy rates are currently on par with what they were in the 90s, so before any Millennial and older folks say something about "back in my day", our day wasn't better.
Also, we have pretty good ideas about causes for the declines and iPads are not it--or at least, not how you think.
All good here, thanks. And the cell phone doesn't always work down there. I need it to connect to the machines and I was actually putting a load in when I got the alert. A ton of rain here but that seems to be all.
I don't think it's illegal to sell them but are they typically marked as not for sale. I used to donate my print ARCs to the library sale but I'd wait until past the release date. Sometimes the library kept them, sometimes they'd sell them.
