Break from the book blanket to make these baby shoes

BRB having a meltdown about this disaster of a football hire * quietly repeating ‘hockey school’ to myself over and over *

Sigh

Firing your coach for going 9-15 in two seasons so you can hire a coach who went 4-20 in his last two seasons as a head coach

FWIW Michigan State's board is elected statewide so if you live in Michigan you should email them to let you know what you think

I love New York because you’re telling me I can just walk to the board game store? Sure

Running late because the kitten doesn’t eat without her requisite scritches

Loved this and now I want to go to Detroit for Thanksgiving www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

Happy Noam Chomsky Day to all who celebrate

Ok the fact that the thing everyone is talking about is way too long and so many parts is a direct result of the decline of print which gave clear parameters and made people edit to what was most important in this essay I will

Choked up multiple times listening to Todd Snider's friends as they shared stories of what he meant to them. Wish it went without saying that this is more important and a better tribute to Snider than self-serving Geraldo cosplay, but here we are. Hope folks allocate their attention accordingly.

everyone knows the number one quality of rigorous, responsible journalism is waiting months and months to reveal urgently newsworthy information until it can cause the most harm in your personal vendettas

Can we send Isaac Chotiner to talk to Ryan Lizza Y/N?

you want a discourse? “should you pirate books” isn’t a discourse. i want to know what marx would think of pirating ryan lizza’s posts

“It’s all a microcosm of a media industry that allowed Olivia Nuzzi and Ryan Lizza to flourish in the first place,” I say. Without a word, my dad stands up from the table, picks up the turkey, and casually dumps it in the trash. Mom pours the gravy into the punch bowl

Post-Gazette strikers return to work: “Take our pen and hold power to account,” Andrew Goldstein, president of the Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh, urged striking Starbucks workers this morning as PG workers returned to their jobs after a three year strike. www.publicsource.org/post-gazette...

Outside the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette right now. Large crowd celebrating our strikers as the win and end their strike!

Should i make a white square to denote the end of each month?

what a joy jahmyr gibbs is

Since I’m in journalism I didn’t go home for the holidays early in my career; now I still don’t - I would rather visit when I don’t have to deal with the holiday stress and I love having Thanksgiving in New York

If you like the NYT print puzzlemania section it will be in this Sunday’s paper (just in time to make your family help with the mega crossword)

I went to a great used bookstore the other day and they had an entire shelf of crossword dictionaries. I didn’t know such a thing existed! Phones really did ruin culture.

I must have a copy

To paraphrase Todd Snider, I didn't know him as well as I tell everyone I did. But I stayed up last night trying to find the words for one of the most important humans and songwriters to ever pick up a guitar. Link is free www.patreon.com/posts/making...

Remember that really dark time in history when they switched the green skittles in the US to green apple flavor I’m glad that’s over

RIP Todd Snider. So much more than an Alright Guy.

Pretty fucking rude of the universe to let Todd Snider die if you ask me

Yesterday after about an hour waiting for food at the bar I inquired as to whether it was coming … as I asked some food that looked exactly like what I ordered came out and was delivered to people who had come in 30 mins after me. …
