Isn't the normal construction with a comma to have a verb in the first phrase that has the subject actively speaking, and then the quoted texted separated by a comma from that phrase?

Eg:
From the kitchen, Maddie said, "who likes their tofu burned?"

On this writer's way of writing, that would be:
Maddie was in the kitchen, "who likes their tofu burned?"

That is, the author is missing that linking verb. Can you add those in, or are those part of the author's unique voice?

The conflation of current Russia with communism from the USSR (it's been more than 30 years) is a masterstroke of American imperialism propaganda that allowed the prior 70 years of anti-communist cold war rhetoric flow seamlessly into russophobic hate.

I'm mostly surprised about how many Beanis herds I've found so far. I like the addition of animals, but it's an unexpected crossover.

Just hanging out near the grocery store of course. A group of them. I have to say I was surprised.

I'm loving the new crafting of makeshift weapons!

Adorable! I haven't seen any animals except for a Beanis I saw in Muldraugh
