Brutal news about the Herald and ominous for all the communities served by Sound Publishing. Standing with all those who lost their jobs today, and those left behind who will no doubt keep showing up, even to a hollowed-out newsroom, in order to inform the public. @EverettHerald
Vulture-capitalist owner lays off more than half the staff of a once-fine local paper in Washington state. Publisher says, “The readers won’t notice.”

Folks with contacts in Gaza: I'm reporting on the food crisis there, looking for on-the-ground perspective from both aid workers and ordinary folks. Please DM me if you feel comfortable sharing info.

Update: I'm in a new, temporary role at NPR, with the incredible Goats & Soda team! Thanks to everyone for their support in recent weeks.
I’m afraid I am one of the casualties. Working w/the team @NPRShortWave for the past year has been a beautiful dream, and unfortunately now it’s time to wake up. Please do send me your job listings/freelance opportunities. And you should keep listening to the show; I sure will.

This is some badassery right here. Dr. Shapiro blew my mind, like, four times over the course of this interview.
When @itiscolossal @federallamm asked @bonesandbugs what species of bird they should try to bring back from extinction, the answer was pretty obvious ...

This thread from @emilykwong1234 is a tour de force of carbs and interpersonal insight. Read all the way down for her absurd dairy takes.
There are two things I love most in this word: 1) carbohydrates 🥧 2) non-pretentious learning So, Pi Day (March 14th) is kindofmyjam. In 2012, I designed a superman-esque Pi Day shirt for my high school and a shocking number of people wore it. WIN.

Quick search on tenderizing canned chickpeas and I'm pretty sure this article was generated by an AI or someone else with a death wish.
