They're trying to recycle that old Vince Foster conspiracy from the Clinton era. These folks are not very creative liars though admittedly their base doesn't really demand high quality misinformation.
Moments after Donald Trump pleaded not guilty to federal charges that he hoarded classified documents and then conspired to obstruct an investigation about it, the Republicans in Congress had his back.

At least you all just had a commission that seems to have made some definitive statements about Boris today. (Not being Brit I fully admit to not understanding the full import or procedure, but at least it was gratifying to observe at least some repercussions.)
After participating in a 48-hour blackout protest against Reddit's decision to charge third-party developers for API access, moderators of the World of Warcraft subreddit have announced that the subreddit will be indefinitely returning to private mode in continued protest.
I'll admit, that was one of the few that I usually had pinned to the Reddit Enhancement Suite top bar and would browse.

I'll be honest... I basically don't track my reading. There are enough metrics in my life that I don't have control over, that I don't feel it necessary or useful to apply a tracking to what I do in my spare time. I try to make sure I get the book club book read before the monthly meeting, and otherwise I guess the tracking is the pile of books in the TBR pile and the read pile (and what's on bookshelves. I figure if I don't remember a book well enough to recommend it to someone, it was probably fairly forgettable, and if I do it was probably pretty memorable and that's good enough for me!
