I thought most of the sales for those books were orchestrated to gently caress with the stats. I guess she doesn't have any of those connections to draw on?

Yeah. Big money backers will buy them in large numbers at wholesale and distribute them at events and such. It’s a way of funneling dark money into a figure you want to prop up. The NYT list even puts a little fluer de lis looking thing on their bestseller entries for those

Don't mainstream dipshits normally just buy a shitload of their own books to get in the NYT bestseller list or something?

Only if it’s a pure vanity thing. If they’re trying to make money the game (as mentioned above) is to get somebody else to make a huge bulk purchase of your book. But apparently she couldn’t wrangle that lol. Probably had a decent advance payment from the publisher so while it’s embarrassing for her she’s not really out any money

I assumed it was a vanity thing. As much as i can tell, that woman's career up to this point has been riding her father's coattails to get attention

5-4 episode on the leaked Dobbs ruling goes hard

Also, anyone have any podcast recs that are more focused on left-leaning policy goals? For example I'm subscribed to Volts which is a guy talking to people about various initiatives in the clean energy space. It's...fine. Kind of dry but it goes over some neat topics.

Tech Wont Save Us talks more about this on the tech-socialism, etc side sometimes: https://www.techwontsave.us/. This Machine Kills is pretty much the same but jeremy sucks compared to paris marx.

I enjoy Space Commune. They live in Peter Buffet's personal project city and they work(ed?) as tenets union organizers. They have some really insightful criticisms of how the broader left conceives of energy and policy

Thanks, I'll give these a go. Doesn't necessarily have to be in the tech/energy space, that was just the example I had on-hand.

if you installed TilTok freely of your own volition you’re a zoomer, if you had to be bullied by friends into installing it you’re a millennial. no I will not be taking questions

I like the 9/11 test for determining Zoomer or Millennial. If you remember 9/11 happening you're a millennial, if you just know of it you're a Zoomer.
