My first newspaper job was in Elk City, Oklahoma. Along with writing most of the news, I also took most of the daily paper’s lead photos. Here’s some I think are cool. Cutlines in alt text:

The more I think about this battleship the more I think it’s a shiny distraction to keep attention away from the LSM and the frigate, both of which can be built in the near term. Some of these weapons don’t exist yet except on paper. No ship ever built could power all of these.

Feel like I watched James Ransone grow up onscreen. If not familiar with HBO's exemplary GENERATION KILL about Iraq invadion, it might be my favorite role of his. Going toe to toe with Alexander Skarsgard, Ransone was a live wire combination of hilarious & harrowing. RIP James, brother.

“We requested responses to questions and/or interviews with DHS, the White House, and the State Department. Government silence is a statement, not a VETO. Their refusal to be interviewed is a tactical maneuver designed to kill the story.”

Rob Reiner was a good guy. He made a lot of movies about good guys, in worlds where not everyone was good and you didn’t have to be good. He made movies about people trying. He was angry, as many hopeful people are. He knew the world could be better and he wanted it to be. His death is devastating.

If this is being annoying, then okay. I'm saying this, too. Our small local metro news publication,
@freepressokc.bsky.social
, gets out to be there and cover a story. Then, later we see whole stories or photos scraped and shared by automated scrapers. Support the originators of the news.
