Not mine. Each book has been better than the previous but sold fewer.
“Actually, in America, the reading of books is up. Sales of print books have increased nearly twenty-five per cent from a decade ago. The number of independent bookstores in the United States has climbed steeply since 2009, with a seventy-per-cent increase since 2020.” These nuggets & more in this delightful @NewYorker profile of James Daunt, founder of Daunt Books, CEO of Barnes & Noble, and Managing Director of Waterstones: newyorker.com/magazine/2026/…

Choosin’ Texas has been number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for 24 weeks and is apparently now the most 'successful' song of all time so I thought I'd better have a listen. It's an ok but fairly bog standard pop-country tune. What's going on?

Which way do you want your experience mediated?
Meta just blew this commercial out of the water. As everyone else stares at a screen, not truly living in the moment, you'll be able to watch without worrying if you caught it on tape, fully enriched in the experience. 10/10

Of course fuel duty is high. All that benefits fraud isn’t going to pay for itself

For fun I apply for jobs I don’t even want just to see how they frame ‘too old’ without actually saying it
