This is one of the most remarkable pieces of longform journalism I've ever read. I will be thinking about Red Bull for a long time.
Last year, a human trafficking victim trapped in a crypto scam compound in the Golden Triangle region of Laos contacted me. He then proceeded to leak to me a huge collection of the compound's internal materials.
Then he had to get out alive. This is his story.

FUCK THE BLOCKS
NEW: Publishers of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette announce they are shutting down the newspaper on May 3, 2026.
Hours ago, the Supreme Court of the US declined to extend a stay on a court order for the paper to pay its journalists following the end of a 3-year strike.

hey @bencollins.bsky.social - some sad news today that Pittsburgh's only print alt-weekly is gone. i know previous incarnations of the Onion used to do local distribution w/ a section for real local news. wonder if there's any room for such a thing today
Well folks, some news. Ownership is folding @pghcitypaper.com. I wish I could say this was more surprising. I'll be on the lookout for new roles while I continue to teach and hopefully find places to publish some stories I haven't finished. In the meantime, I'm all ears for opportunities.

This has been a little bit of a journey, but it's very funny to me so please bear with me.
There's movie called The Scarapist (2015), which is about abusive therapists. It's...let's just say it's a horror film. It's by Jeanne Marie Spicuzza.

highmark, you literally just need to say "hey yinz fahrworks are happening at midnight." you did not need to ask ChatGPT to spit out some copy slop that classifies the period of time between 2007 and 2025 as "nearly fifteen years."

There are versions of section 230 reform that I’d support. Like stripping it if a platform algorithmically serves you content. but stripping it entirely is the end of the public internet. i‘ve had moments of supporting public internet abolitionism but we should be clear about what it is.
Children are being exploited and abused because Big Tech consistently prioritizes profits over people.
Enough is enough. Time to sunset Section 230.

i think i have late-onset horsegirlism
I stumbled onto a small herd of Icelandic ponies near Gimli yesterday. They were a bit far from the road and the weather was nasty, but I managed to capture this lovely moment.
