The danger in watching this is you'll now be disappointed every time you rewatch it and this isn't the ending

Happy anniversary to the 2011 Oklahoma earthquake that caught everyone by surprise including Kirk Herbstreit

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.

if there was a rich person with the will, you could build the most incredible news organization that has ever existed just from the wreckage of this year alone.

This has been an incredible series to watch, unless you're a fan of either of these teams, in which case I suspect you aren't having very much fun at all.

Going to record a podcast episode in a few minutes. Plan to declare it all “off the record” at the end.

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification. I glanced down at the message. “Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began. So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/anna...

I should have clipped my fingernails this morning before I stuck my thumb in a viral video

Retired Army Sgt. Brian Wofford spoke to me this morning at the Oklahoma City #NoKings protest. Didn’t expect him to be carrying his DD214 so I asked some warmup questions like when he got out and whether his injury was service-related. He paused while describing the car bomb in Iraq to say this:

Turned in the badge today. My colleagues and I will stay on the beat, but in a new way. The work continues. Danlamothe.30

An explosion has happened at the Accurate Energetic Systems in the Bucksnort area in Hickman County, Tennessee.

Just noticed an additional two Skyraider II aircraft, callsigns "ZORRO," doing training ops over Oklahoma. This is now six trainers I've seen that appear to be in use by the 137th Special Operations Wing at Will Rogers ANG in Oklahoma City. First two were HOBO 61 & 71 #avgeek

I also feel stressed and one of the things I’d recommend is intentionally building trusting supportive relationships with another human being where both parties can support each other through the highs and lows of life. And if not that I’d recommend getting into the saxophone

"please buy product so I can repay billions to investors" is also very plausible

As I have said to friends many times, the crises of the 21st century (GWOT, financial crises, etc) simply don’t add up in a material sense to the level of crazy and authoritarianism we are seeing today. Internet and social media are a much better root cause explanation.

the true message of aliens is that ripley just isn't a very good businesswoman

I expect everyone to be extremely happy that I wrote about political violence without ever once mentioning Hobbes. othermeans.io/p/american-n...

They canceled Lower Decks but will make us sit through Star Trek: The Gathering for another two seasons.

“An Oklahoma City physician beamed at a grief-stricken visitor and said, ‘Good, I hope they got Jackie.’”

cheering and celebrating after assassinations is by no means new. what has changed is that social media gives us greater access to a greater number of people a few accounts from immediately after the kennedy assassination

Not to interrupt production at the takes factory but they should probably identify and catch the actual killer before we decide what it all means.

Political violence is bad because civil conflict is absolutely fucking terrible for everyone. It empowers the worst people within a society and feeds into endless cycles of escalating violence that get harder and harder to stop.

Information environment has reached its grotesque conclusion in that there is a very real killer out there who has not been identified, apprehended, or investigated, a detail practically inconsequential to nearly every commentator’s purposes.

And, for now, turn off the TV and read slow news, and even then, read it skeptically.

This is really, really bad news. I don’t care if you don’t like Kirk. No one deserves to be shot. This is dreadful news for people speaking publicly, who increasingly must fear for their safety, and also for the inevitable crackdown that will follow.

Don't be a fucking ghoul. And even if you're really feeling like acting like one right now, posting that shit online is just going to make you famous with all the wrong people.

Do your mental health a favor and turn this on for today. You really don't want to watch this. It is awful.

Don't look for close-up videos of the Charlie Kirk shooting. It's nearly as bad as anything I've seen.

how about don't do political violence, man
