Reply to comment by Mittttzy in Classic literature that’s also very readable. by MinxyMyrnaMinkoff
I was surprised how modern a lot of Dostoyevski seemed. Take out the long names, and so much of his prose is quippy enough to fit right in with contemporary lit.

Spiritually? What, am I going to be so sleep deprived from juggling my job and my new projects that I'll start hallucinating mystical entities?

Michigan is like if the dumbest yokels from Alabama had money.
Everything outside of Detroit is basically Atwood's Gilead.

Reply to I’m Vivienne Chang and author of picture book THIS IS NOT MY HOME (publishes today!) and college senior at WashU. My best friend and co-author Eugenia & I are one of the first traditionally published GenZ picture book authors. AMA! by [deleted]
Calling yourselves "the first traditionally published GenZ book authors" sounds fake and gimmicky. I've seen articles about genZ authors for at least 5 years now -- are none of them traditionally published? Maybe shift the narrative from "we got there first" to "we offer a perspective unique from all the other first-generation-immigrant college kids".
That said, congrats on the book! What literature trends would you like to see become more mainstream in the next few years?

Waze is way better at warning you about speed traps. Google does this weird thing where they'll show you a speed trap but not announce it. Worried that the merge will make this feature less functional.

Providing for basic needs and living a meaningful life are two different things.

Reply to comment by Wigu90 in Poland scraps easy access to labour market for Russians by hieronymusanonymous
Isn't this the case for most refugees? Most refugees love their country, but when their country becomes too dangerous to remain, they have no choice but to flee. I'm sure a lot of them would love to return to the place they grew up if it was safe. Why is Russia different to you?

Lol, are you seriously not aware of temp email sites? What do you use when a subscription or internet service asks you for your email, do you give them your real email? Holy shit
Ok, basic data safety: you should have 3 emails -- personal, work, and a separate gmail for the legitimate services (electric, isp) you use, and give every other website should be given a temporary email. Examples of temporary email providers are guerillamail and cryptomail.

If you'd only read the article, you wouldn't need to do the calculations since $18,000 is given as the exact figure.
