@AlexClark3 @niewview @prototypepubs I'm currently reading the copy of "Fair" that I bought at @edbookfest, and my blood is boiling at the unfairness of it all, not only what @niewview recounts about her own journey as a literary #translator, but also the parts of it that apply to my work as a commercial translator

🚨 Democrats are refusing to reopen the government unless Republicans support the expanded COVID subsidies Biden created—which they voted to end! This has zero to do with affordable healthcare. It's an organized looting of taxpayers. FGA CEO @TarrenBragdon for @dcexaminer.
