Hi everyone, most of yall don’t know me. I grew up in poverty and my parents still struggle with it. Their living conditions are way less than stellar. It’s a mobile home from the 80s.

It’s a lot, but I’ve started a GoFundMe to try and help them. It’s a large amount, but I want to try for them.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

Having a roster featuring Bussi and a guy whose name can be Stank Oven is one hell of a move.

I once did a story as a news photog where we covered a KKK member harassing kids at a Pride Event. He pulled out his member card and threatened them. It was on camera.

We were the only local news station to NOT blur his face.

One of my proudest moments in tv news.
I'm searching Getty Images and found some photos credited to the Boston Herald that redact the faces of ICE/federal agents. They don't redact the face of the guy they're arresting.

I'm curious about the ethics of doing this. I don't think I've ever seen this on Getty before.

FYI, I don’t work at this university. I work at a different university in Kentucky.

However, my thoughts are with those hurt today. I hope they are all OK.
A suspect has been arrested after a shooting at Kentucky State University, the authorities said on Tuesday. The Frankfort Police Department said that it had responded to what it called “an active aggressor.”
