EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

Working in rural journalism is awesome because sometimes you're just sent a contact for "Dusty" with the message "Give him a shout."

Sorry for the string of videos, but this is amazing and makes me wonder if this is what life could be like if we all just logged off the internet.

Kind of funny how as a working journalist it's so easy to entirely neglect your own narrative while you're chasing everything else's

Bout time I do a bit of work in that realm

Stay tuned for some updates in the coming days 🙂

Been seeing a lot of weird exclusionary behavior among Melee folks recently. Hidden side discords, high school-like cliquiness, and segmentation that honestly could kill local communities.

This ⏬ is what Melee is and has been for two decades. Bring people in.

This weekend I hopped in my tiny little 2014 Mazda 2 and set out for my 4th event in 5 weeks. I’m exhausted but the weather is a perfect melancholic sprinkling of rain and the smell gets me goin. Pick...

It's really eye opening how Spaniards guzzle oils, smoke on the regular, and sit around all the time AND YET have one of the highest life expectancies in the world because of how much time they spend just chilling with the homies

seeing reviews of new Doctor Who episodes be like JUST ANOTHER SOCIAL ISSUE OF THE WEEK...DOCTOR TOO EMOTIONAL...NOT DOCTOR WHO!!! is so funny because it's literally the same as it was in 2010 with better CGI
