This sentence was there at the top of the published blog page in less than 5 seconds.
Version 2 of my workflow is now under development. Two distinct parts.

Trying out ReadWise - using a two month free test thanks to a Nick Milo link … and yes - I am exploring the Readwise integration with Obsidian … it was Nick that gave me the idea!
“It would be difficult to use “warlords, racists, scammers, politicos, dictators, secret police, surveillance experts, manipulators, medical quacks, ponzi perpetrators, predators, misogynists, revisionists and opportunists ‘First’ as a slogan”
