Airbnb

You heard this and didn't immediately request for them to step up to the guillotine? Are you even a Lemmy user?

Oh shit, you're right. Why do I even still consider her a friend? I need to cut her out of my life.

Actually, I haven't talked to her in a few years. We went to high school together ('89-'93) and just reconnect every so often.

Also I just looked it up and I was mistaken about the retreats. They actually let people stay for free at the island for a week. They call it "Ideas Island" and let creative people stay there to help them get the creative juices flowing. I read a quote from her husband that went something like: "Your book could change someone's life. If there's a book in you, write it."

But yes, they do also rent it out as an Airbnb.
