Today @lataco.bsky.social launched a fundraiser to help me start their investigative news desk. We're hoping to raise $25k to help pay for lab tests, analyze ICE data that the Daily Memo's been compiling + work with more freelancers. Been dreaming of this for years!

We’ve made it to Round 3 and I’ve really tested the bounds of Buffer’s free account level
Well y'all it's been a few days of hiccups and surprises, but we did it, we made it to Round 3 of #RomComBracket! Like yesterday, there will be two separate threads for the West and the East.

I very much was thinking of "military industrial complex" when looking at Barsha Corp. As I said on a recent interview, Barsha Corp is so high above the law that there is no morality, only transactions (the underworld is the inverse, the same thing but below the law)
In looking at @mikechenwriter.bsky.social's #StarWars #LowRedMoon, I felt strong links between the Barshas’ situation, and that of the German industrialists after the Nazis rose to power. Like the GIs, the Barshas supported the changing government of the time, but neither fully understood- 1/4

Probate has been a lot, but getting to go through our life together, one photos, one letter, one record at a time… it’s honestly healing. I miss her, but I am so thankful to have had the love and care I did from Mimi. 💗

This and the incident where they arrested staff at a Mexican restaurant, but only after letting said staff first serve them a meal are just diabolical. They’re assaults on basic humanity and decency. Publicize the hell out of this stuff. Let Republicans try to defend it.

College journalism programs failed us by not warning us of the fights we’d have to have in newsrooms. How we’d always have to be the ones asking about bias toward power, how we’d be asking for better community-centered coverage and how we’d ask for respect internally (and get none).
A conscientious journalism grad withdraw from a job when she learned the Cleveland Plain Dealer uses AI to write its stories.

Now the editor is castigating her and journalism professors for not being “prepared for the workforce.”

You can’t make this shit up.

Part of why we were so excited about these is that he designed them to print on their sides, so you can pack 100 onto the A1 mini plate easily! I did my first 100 whistle test run and omg I LOVE THEM NOW THE RAINBOWS GO ACROSS THEM???
