I read Gabe’s post (😄) and am also working through Quenby Olson’s Miss Percy’s Pocket Guide (to the Care and Feeding of British Dragons). I’ve been enjoying it so far but it’s definitely a slower read than I was looking for at the moment.

If you were in reality a bot, are you confident that you would know?
Short version is that the admin went frEe SPeECh ABsOLutIsT, it went about as well as that kind of thing usually does and most users left.
When did this community become a podcast announcement feed for Krystal Ball and Saagar Emjeti?
I’m aware, but I also know that we get a sizable chunk of our imports of garlic and mushrooms from China.
Like I said, it is more than I thought, but less than I expected. Given how global a lot of products are anymore, it wouldn’t have surprised me if it was more than the 2023 numbers showed.
I had to go look it up, it’s more than I thought, but not as much as I ultimately expected. I included all food products for completeness. 2023 numbers:
| product | value | year| |——————————-|———-|———| | Fish, crustaceans, molluscs, aquatics invertebrates | $1.31B | 2023 | | Animal, vegetable fats and oils, cleavage products | $850.73M | 2023 | | Vegetable, fruit, nut food preparations |$833.00M | 2023 | | Miscellaneous edible preparations | $670.05M | 2023 | | Edible vegetables and certain roots and tubers | $358.31M | 2023 | | Meat, fish and seafood preparations | $278.46M | 2023 | | Cereal, flour, starch, milk preparations and products | $248.89M | 2023 | | Coffee, tea, mate and spices | $233.34M | 2023 | | Sugars and sugar confectionery | $204.28M | 2023 | | Oil seed, oleagic fruits, grain, seed, fruits | $171.07M | 2023 | | Edible fruits, nuts, peel of citrus fruit, melons | $131.20M | 2023 |
How much food including fruits and vegetables like garlic or mushrooms do you suspect we import from China?

Sounds like the Boebert crime family is at it again.
It was mainly a media critique. For example This was how The NY Times covered it. Trump’s 68% of the vote is “coasting”
Calibre automatically updates Goodreads so that ends up being my backup.
I’m torn between The StoryGraph and Hardcover. Hardcover is the better app/site in my opinion, but it’s still quite young so the book database is rougher with a lot of duplicates or missing metadata. But it also has a public API so hopefully someone will write a Calibre Plugin and I can stop with Goodreads all together.
That said, I pay for both, and Hardcover even with missing data beats StoryGraph by 10%, imho.
