edited by the great Robert Chandler This book turned me from a short story skeptic to one less skeptical of short stories. You’ve got Pushkin, Chekhov, etc but also avant gardists like Daniil Kharms.

*The Best Short Stories of Fyodor Dostoevsky* and/or *The Gambler and Other Stories*. There’s some overlap in stories included depending on the edition but worth it to be able to read all of them!

C'mon. It makes you feel good; it makes them feel good. You have to mean it, though. Years ago I thought there was integrity in being withholding, till a prominent online (now print) editor with the initials C.S. began liking the tweets I posted for my day job. If this person wasn't too good to hit "like," what was I being so full of myself for?

Really more about the causes of the holdup in the rollout of legal weed stores. I’d skip part one of the two-part Search Engine podcast series. This ep has all the committee meetings and interviews with frustrated people granted weed-selling licenses your heart desires.
