New: Conde Nast fired four employees who were among a group that confronted the company's head of human resources on Wednesday over the decision to fold Teen Vogue into Vogue/recent cuts. Employees who were fired included journalists from the New Yorker, Wired, and Bon Appétit.

"Oh, I realized, within a year, bringing any of that up is going to make me sound pedantic at a party" Waymos, AI, Flock cameras. Feels like Im speed running becoming a paranoid crotchety old man whenever I make it known that I refuse to accept these things as good. We need another Luddite movement

Hahahhahaha

KitKat made Rolling Stone. What a weird ass week www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

If you give it a close read, this NY Post story is actually solely based on two guys making dubious claims while promoting their businesses.

I fucking love this @pochoboymeetsworld.bsky.social piece on the new Frida Kahlo museum, what home means, and how tiny pieces of connection out in the world make all the difference.

COYOTE's @pochoboymeetsworld.bsky.social was skeptical about the new Casa Roja, yet another Frida Kahlo museum in Mexico City. But when he discovered her intimate relationship to the Bay Area, he found a new, personal connection with the famous artist.

From all of us at @coyotemedia.org, thank you NYC for making every centrist Californian politician reading the news last night shit their pants.

I am no longer employed so I'm not blogging Zohran tonight but I can just repeat exactly what I said in June :-) he won on the back of a pro-migrant, pro-trans, pro-working class campaign. and also: Dem pundits are full of shit

thank you for the outpouring of support! those of us laid off from Teen Vogue yesterday are now sharing our GoFundMe to help us cover our emergency expenses now that we've lost our incomes, as we get back on our feet.

if I got the flu at Kaiser while getting my flu shot I swear to god

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members. At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

We’re in a strange limbo where secret police are routinely beating, disappearing, and shooting everyday people in public, but they’ve not yet consolidated enough power to stop us from talking about it on social media. That imbalance prob can’t last. Either we roll them back or this gets rolled up .

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

It's almost as if letting the ultra-rich own the entire mainstream press and also all the big social platforms had a downside.

The writing has been on the wall for old media models since Napster. It will either be user supported—subs and donations—or run by billionaires. Not a lot of good examples of the latter working out.

The way to ensure independent/non-oligarchic media is to really support it. Not just by posting about the latest round of layoffs and consolidation. Before and apart from that happening.

This sucks so hard. Teen Vogue did a better job of calling politics than a few certain national papers. Hope somebody is staffing up and can hire these talented reporters.

This is probably one of the best baseball games I've ever watched and I hate the outcome

it would be so much better if we made professional baseball players line up after the game and high five each other and say “good game good game good game good game”

god bless the magic of television for letting you see every syllable of a pitcher telling the batter he just hit “fuck you motherfucker”

alright who can point me towards the deep dive history of nougat

What can a very loud stadium of monster trucks offer us right now? Maybe, oddly enough… catharsis. Check out @rahawahaile.bsky.social's first feature for COYOTE! 🛻💨

"'This is a lot of Grave Digging for 10:30 a.m.,' I scribble...a Dolly Parton billboard instructs folks to 'find the good in everybody.' The 'PRIVACY IS FOR THE PEOPLE' Mullvad VPN billboard opposite Dolly suggests we think twice about that." SHE'S BACK. Subscribe to @coyotemedia.org u won't regret

This might be the dumbest thing I've ever heard

For my first feature in years, I wrote about Monster Jam as an echo of place and what that felt like in Oakland in 2025.

One reason it took me so long to write this @coyotemedia.org essay is I kept trying to find a positive, productive note to end on. All I really got is “fund the goddamn bus.” www.coyotemedia.org/in-which-we-...

it's very important to be able to pivot, as a journalist for example you could make $150k to use chat GPT to tell stories about bras

A classic @emmaruthless.bsky.social joint in that it does so many things so well and leaves you feeling both gutted and galvanized.

Waymo killed a cat

me publishing an angry rant about "acceptable evil" is what KitKat would have wanted, right www.coyotemedia.org/in-which-we-...

goddammit you guys it's NATIONAL CAT DAY??

Read @emmaruthless.bsky.social on the Waymo that killed her neighborhood cat and the ways we delude ourselves into accepting evil forces, somehow, in our cities.

Just updated this list! So glad to see more restaurants answering the call for help.
