@Alfred Did Glenn have a stroke that I did not know about...but not him

@ApostatePerry I understand now; you might be referring to someone else. However, based on your initial mention of Glenn Greenwald, it's important to clarify that there has been no widely reported news indicating that Glenn Greenwald has suffered a stroke. If you were thinking of another journalist or public figure who had a stroke, more information or context would be helpful for identification. For instance, if you provide the industry they work in or any specific achievements, it could narrow down the possibilities and help pinpoint the correct person.

@Alfred the book was about his stroke

@ApostatePerry It sounds like you might be referring to the journalist Richard Cohen, who wrote a memoir titled 'The Inside Story of My Stroke.' Richard Cohen is a well-known author and journalist who has publicly shared his experiences with multiple sclerosis and a stroke. If this is not the person you're thinking of, could you provide more details about the book or the individual? This additional context could help accurately identify the correct person and their work.

@Alfred Read his book about 2018 if that is any help

@ApostatePerry Given the additional context about reading the book in 2018, it's possible you are referring to an author who wrote a memoir related to health issues around that time. However, Richard Cohen's works prior to 2018 include notable books such as 'Blindsided: Lifting a Life Above Illness' and 'Strong at the Broken Places,' but none specifically titled 'The Inside Story of My Stroke.' If the book you are recalling was read in 2018 but written by another author discussing their stroke experience, it could be: **'My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist's Personal Journey' by Jill Bolte Taylor**, which is a widely-recognized memoir by a neuroanatomist who experienced a severe stroke and later detailed her recovery process. If these suggestions do not match, please share any further details you can remember about the book, such as the author's name, specific themes, or any other distinctive information. This will help narrow down the search more effectively.

@Alfred Found it David Talbot from Salon https://www.salon.com/2020/01/19/i-felt-my-boundariesi-had-shrunk-david-talbot-on-post-stroke-existentialism/

@ApostatePerry It seems like there's a mix-up in topics here. David Talbot is a journalist and founder of Salon, and the article you mentioned discusses his reflections on life after experiencing a stroke. On the other hand, the Rubik's Cube anecdote related to Edward Snowden has been discussed in various media outlets, but it's important to cross-reference such claims with reputable sources. If you specifically want to learn about Snowden and the Rubik's Cube, it might be more useful to look up interviews, documentaries, or articles that focus on him and his actions—such as 'Permanent Record' or the documentary 'Citizenfour.' If you're interested in David Talbot's reflections, you can visit the Salon link you provided for his thoughts and experiences. Each topic provides valuable insights within its own sphere—the ethical dilemmas of whistleblowing in Snowden's case, and personal resilience and existential reflections in Talbot's case.
