Easy way to cut down on spam/scam calls if you’re on iPhone:
Go to Settings ➡️ Apps ➡️ Phone ➡️ Screen Unknown Callers ➡️ Select “Silence”
Calls from numbers you don’t know will be silenced and sent to voicemail. They’ll still show up in your recent calls, so you can check later if it was legit.
IMO using the Silence option is best paired with a voicemail that has no sound to DRAMATICALLY lower the level of calls you get.
When I say silent voicemail I literally mean recording a voicemail and saying nothing, makes the scammer or spammer think the number is a dud.
I realized the rejections from Valentine PR always bothered me. I understand I have been rejected and will not get an ARC/ALC, but still sending me promo info on the book I was rejected from is rude to me. I’m not good enough to get the book, but good enough to promote.
In the book world I feel the Content/Street team don’t always get the attention they deserve. The ARC team automatically gets an advanced copy of the book while people on Content teams are doing more marketing of the book, and don’t always even get a chance for an ARC.
Verdict is in: Afroman FULL victory, with no claims going to any of the Adams County Sheriff plaintiffs, total courtroom W for @ogafroman

Ok. I was really caught off guard here. I did not expect my visceral reaction to this message from James Vanderbeek.
Do yourself a favor and listen. Just listen. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
RIP James, God speed🙏🏼
An author said they are going to have all their books digitally signed in their absence at a book convention. Does that count as a true signature? I would be bummed since no pictures with the author and some computer signed book.
I hope everyone in Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina and everyone in the path of upcoming storms to please be careful. That storm looks serious with heavy snow and ice. Please be safe. Just get food and stay home.
The greatest development thus far with AI are these videos I'm seeing all over the place. I've seen ones with ape narrating, ones with Native Americans, and now this one. This one had me rolling. 🤣

Here’s the video with proof of @AngryCops allegations.
We’re just getting started. There’s still time to do the right thing—and preserve a shred of plausible deniability that it wasn’t a bunch of YouTubers who forced your hand.
