PSA: Even if your Anthropic settlement notice says there are no disagreements, don’t assume everything is in fact all good. I was extremely displeased tonight to discover that four of my books have claims with which I very definitely disagree.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Kirkus liked The Scot's Seduction, out 9/30: "a signature strong-minded Frampton heroine, packed with charming banter and steamy scenes...[t]he strongest element of the book is the depth of emotional connection that develops between the leads, leading to a satisfying ending in more ways than one."

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Trump’s allies now control X, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, & TikTok. They own Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ & NY Post. They own Sinclair Broadcasting which has 200 tv stations and local news in 100 markets. “Freedom of speech” is now what Trump and his billionaire pals say it is.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com Larry Ellison, a major stakeholder in CBS and Paramount, now has CNN, HBO and a major share of TikTok in his sights, William Cohan writes. If all goes as expected, Ellison is poised “to become one of the most powerful media and entertainment moguls America has ever seen.”

It was more for social status, not tax benefits. There was no federal income tax. It was en vogue for ladies to have charity causes. Carnegie donated because libraries were his pet cause, and he had more money than he ever intended on keeping.
