I find this fascinating, because it’s such a contrast with what politicians focus on. If you looked at political campaigns, you’d think everyone was a farmer, coal miner, or factory worker.
There’s probably a large dose of sexism here, too — none of the jobs politicians talk about are female-coded.

In contrast, when you go to “Sections” and click on “Today’s Paper,” it’s the very first article. I don’t really understand why this is, but it’s concerning because few people read the Times in print.

If Gov. Cox decides to sign the bill making the Pride flag illegal in all Utah government buildings, I will eagerly put it on my office door. 🏳️🌈
