Bit of a long shot, but are any editors looking for pitches related to the new season of Pachinko? I've got a burning idea. Appreciate any help amplifying this post. Thank you!

@shararehdrury I'm sorry to hear about your layoff. I also went through the media layoff ringer last year. I relate a lot to the mixed emotions in your thread. But I did learn one thing: layoffs — as terrible as they are — do give us a moment to pause, reflect & slow down. Wishing you well~

@itcdr @michellelegro @WIRED Thanks so much for sharing this, Chris! I also was laid off earlier this year from my media job. I may send across my resume to this email for the writer position since I'm not sure when you'll be posting the job role. Appreciate the opportunity!

@gardeningbabe I have long Covid, and compared to others with the condition...it's fairly mild. But even "mild" long Covid still really sucks. You're doing the right thing by resting. I hope you recover swiftly without any long-term issues.

@michellelegro @WIRED I am so sorry to hear that, Michelle. I also got laid off earlier this year from my media job. It's a brutal time. I remember coming across your words/editing at Longreads. I look forward to seeing your editorial work elsewhere in the future!
