P. Kim Bui

Programming note: I'm (mostly) leaving Twitter for my mental health. My email is findable; you can still book 30 min with me: calendarhero.to/coachingwkim I'll still schedule tweets & promote great work/jobs. But overall, I'll be here less. A thread in the name of learning out loud:

I will *not* be deleting my profile here, but I'll let it lie dormant because I do not want to leave the handle open to the trolls who have decided to reside here.

You probably saw this coming, but I'm actually not going to be here anymore. For all the reasons all other journalists list, but in the time since I've stepped away after some unkind actions a couple years ago, nothing has improved. I'm here now: bsky.app/profile/kimbui…

We invite new managers attending #ONA24 to join me, Martin G. Reynolds (@reynoldspost), Felecia D. Henderson (@Newsgirl84), Jean Marie Brown and P. Kim Bui (@kimbui) for a special @ONA training: Stepping into Leadership and Shaping Team Culture. Register now to reserve your spot.

Congrats,y’all. Let me tell you, you’re in for a great ride.

I’ve been laid off from my job covering criminal justice at @wamu885/ @DCist. Thank you to all of the DMV residents who trusted me with your stories. It was an honor and I felt like I was just getting started. Please support my colleagues at @WeMakeWAMU

Exclusive: @WAMU lays off 15 staffers, shutting down @DCist in effort to focus more on audio projects More on @axios axios.com/2024/02/23/wam…

What do you call a phase that’s not quite burnout, not a depressive episode, just feeling meh? One that you don't even notice you’re in until you look back and think: “I wasn’t feeling my best then” I thought of a ‘meh field’ but looked it up and seems like I hallucinated it?

@RyFons I’m so sorry. That is awful. If I can help, let me know.

I’d been told I was safe, but turns out LA Times management screwed up their own layoff process and decided to send more notices. Got a call from HR last night that I'm being let go.

What's Kim doing at @JSKstanford? Weaving, decompressing, breathing. medium.com/jsk-class-of-2…

Breaking news: @LAist's @josie_huang, represented by attorneys from @rcfp and @gibsondunn, reached a settlement with LA County and the LA County Sheriff’s Department that sets a new benchmark for journalists whose rights are violated by law enforcement. rcfp.org/josie-huang-la…

@HaleighKochans Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

So... this is really cool! Happy to be moving to Eugene and extremely excited to meet members of the community. Send tips to hkochanski@registerguard.com

When men get to their 40s and 50s they are considered to be in their prime, yet women of the same age continue to bump up against age-related constraints. Thank you @kelkord for interviewing me & spreading this research! businessinsider.com/discrimination…

@curtis_chels Forever and always a call away.

@kimbui Thanks for always being in my corner Kim! ❤️

You know what’s great? When you believe in someone, despite others not, and you’re right that they can and will change the literal face of journalism.
