News Digest Post for 8/22/19

Opening/Random Thoughts

Hey friends! Let me apologize for not writing one of these in a while. Switching to daily streams — which if you’re unaware of, read here — has taken a lot of my energy, but things are balancing out, so now I wanna do a news-only post to get y’all caught up. I’ve over eighty pieces saved, so we’re just gonna plow through them.

I do hope to do these posts weekly AT THE VERY LEAST. Daily ideally, hopefully. Thanks for your patience everyone, now let’s dive in.
