Often meet someone and say I listen to a lot of podcasts, and they’re like “oh have you heard this New York Times serial about the history of rubber? It’s amazing”
And I have to say “no…I just listen to Simon Jordan, Froch on Fighting and things like ‘was Hermann Göring gay?’”

@shagbark_hick @sceptic1126 Why is St Louis the best by far?
English
@sceptic1126 Utica is basically a mini Saint Louis, and whereas in STL you're a ways off from rednecks and cornfields -- in Utica, they're never far.
I love both cities. STL is the greatest large American city by far.
English
There's really only one city in America, and if I find myself moving to a city -- you know where to find me.
The giant empty warehouses, the heavy overcast, the pusties and the riggies, and the ghetto pothole streets where old Italians drink on their porches -- I'm at home!

@otter_ai Second day in a row when the website + app are both down. Keep getting "Otter is trying to connect to the network" over and over. Are you having issues around 8pm ET each day?

I’m joining @washingtonpost next week!
Specifically, @postlocal, where I’ll be digging for interesting, illuminating stories across the DMV.
Excited and grateful.

Some news: I’ve left the @TB_Times. This paper made me want to be a journalist. It’s been an honor to work with & learn from such a compassionate, courageous team. Forever grateful. There’s no one I’d rather cover back-to-back hurricanes with. A sample of their brilliance 🧵:

@WingsScotland @CliveSSmith @Barristerblog That article is not intended to be an exploration of the methodology - as you appear to be seeking - but was instead an attempt to chronicle the way this particular state law was passed and then proliferated.
English
@CliveSSmith @Barristerblog @grayneirin Anyway, I'm not really sure what we're arguing about at this point. Any new execution method will by definition always be "experimental". We're both against executions. So I'm really just disputing there's anything interesting in that article.
English
Excellent by @grayneirin on how the latest mad experimental US form of execution (asphyxiation with Nitrogen) was inspired by Michael Portillo's 2008 BBC documentary (as opposed to anything scientific) theguardian.com/world/2024/oct…

@HisSpiciness @allypengelly @rachelmillman @observer Like Belasco says, they can just keep ranking without permission... It's understandable that the colleges wouldn't want to give the data to US News exclusively, but don't they owe it to prospective students to make it public?

@DavidLeyonhjelm @AHaermeyer @JamesMelville Do you have a link to the article this graph came from? I can’t find it

@AHaermeyer @JamesMelville Write a letter to the editor of Nature and explain why you think the article is wrong. If you can.

@lawrencehurley @clairechansen I was taught that this is not acceptable by @petersands55, who says: 'we're not writing Wuthering Heights, lad'

There's nothing journalists like more than a good "amid"

@willmaddoxbanjo @engineers_feed You should be grateful people care enough about what you do to ask questions!

@engineers_feed What’s this instrument here for?
We’re a repair shop. It’s here because it’s broken. Put it down.

What’s a question you hate when people ask you?

@LordHonEsq_Fitz Nothing quite as demoralising as watching the ball snap into the gutter

@grayneirin The officer became "nauseated" the fentanyl was "nauseous"

@elonmusk Why did you say you would form a diverse ‘content moderation council’ to oversee reinstatements last month but then just run a Twitter poll for Trump?
