Some geographer or anthropologist should do a population study on this.

In my observation, there is less overlap between Creative Directors (preferring more office-dense habitats) and youth pastors (more hip neighborhood/suburb).

Both predators, but specialized on different prey

So it seems we're just starting wars in the name of the turn-the-other-cheek guy.

Also, can someone inject this sentence and the newsrooms we’re sharing space with directly into my veins?

These aren’t cute little proof-of-concept shops. @defector.com, @hellgatenyc.com and (I’d humbly suggest) @rangemedia.co are among the best in the game, *because* we pay writers well, period.

Journalism coops seem utopian. What’s it like working in one? "If I was less self-directed, I'd probably be freaking out."

@neeldhanesha.com took so much time to understand the unique tailwinds and drag forces of operating a newsroom as a worker cooperative.

Our convo alone was 1.5 hours.

Can’t imagine how long he spent on this piece. Deep, smart, thoughtful work. Thank you.

The second is much more disturbing, and underscores that, regardless of the breadth of the reform efforts at @spokanepd.bsky.social, it seems as though some officers are intent to disobey their own commanders. From @aaronhedge.bsky.social and I: bsky.app/profile/luke...

The first is one of the few pieces of somewhat good news we've gotten in the last year. Following a story @merrywanderer.bsky.social has owned since the very beginning of the June 11 unrest:

I'm really proud of our little team, man. @rangemedia.co can't report on everything, but the stuff we hit, we hit hard.

The two pieces of breaking news we just published couldn't have had the depth they had without a community who trusts with scoops well before official press releases drop.

Talarico starts by thanking everyone for being there, including Crockett, and reminding us all that he’s a “proud union member” and that the “real fight in this country” isn’t “left versus right” -- it’s “top vs bottom”

57 years ago Martin Luther King Jr. called for a multiracial struggle to spur a “radical revolution of values.” Today, it’s clear why: the fight for justice requires an army bigger than just those directly oppressed. It will take race traitors and class traitors. It will take all of us.

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.

Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”

Really listen to it.
