just had to read several books 'at speed' for reasons, and can confirm, the sweet spot book-wise is 40-50000 words; it's got to be really good to be more than that, and most simply aren't!

The measured consideration of each bite, oh my goodness
more memories than I wish I had of arguing with grad school classmates about how people probably weren't voting for Trump because he was somehow antiwar
hmmm
It has no intrinsic value and is therefore extremely volatile? @cnn.com
Civic minded multimillionaires, let's talk about @heartlandsignal.bsky.social
truly the only app I feel comfortable letting my kids 'run wild' in
In this week's newsletter I wrote about Republicans' plan to win in 2026. Is it doing popular things? No, it's trying to get Democrats to nominate candidates with lots of baggage radio-free-america.beehiiv.com/p/why-are-mi...
