Press freedom group says ‘brutal and unjustified attack’ is deadliest against journalists since Maguindanao massacre
Thirty one journalists and media staff were killed by Israeli strikes on newspaper offices in Yemen last week in what the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) said on Friday was the deadliest attack on journalists in the last 16 years.

Niche Amtrak post. But sometimes you look around, everyone's quiet but you know which ones don't know it's a quiet car

I think it's normal to think of songs about a city when you're visiting it. Unfortunately, this time in SF, that song is the Beautiful South's "Don't Marry Her." Excellent song but a rather uncouth hum-on-the-bus song
