@malloryjohns.bsky.social, RNG's executive director, shared her vision for journalism w/@niemanlab.org. It's about editorial independence, coalition-building & transparency. This was her pitch when she hired me as Rewire's editorial director and I'm proud to report it's been our shared mission since
Coalition – not consolidation – is the key to independent media’s survival
"We should remove the stigma that republishing each other's work dilutes our own."

@rewirenewsgroup.com to run a story about the clitoris.

Did you think it was all about pleasure during sex? Nah. Try again.

If you want to know the meet-cute story of me and @portianoir.com and how I met the loml without ever going outside, this episode of B*tch, Listen is for you.

Also if you don't like the holidays, we talk about giving yourself permission to REST and do what you want, not what's expected.

What does Black joy look like? it looks like rest. It looks like watching Doctor Who with the loml.

I still don’t like the holidays, but I dislike them a lot less now that I am sharing them with @portianoir.com.
