@Expedia @ExpediaHelp I've reached out five times about getting the refund I'm owed from @SingaporeAir. Every time you say someone will get back in 72 hours. That has never happened. This has gone on for nearly a month.

Such a devastating loss for in-depth climate journalism, in B.C. where Hakai is based, and across the world where their writing resonates. I'm collecting $$$ for beer/beverages for the incredible team at Hakai, following newsroom closure tradition. DM for details if interested!

shiiiiit. this sucks. @hakaimagazine was one of my favorite publications—both to read and to write for. kind editors, fast and fair payment, and an unparalleled commitment to ocean awe and wonder. this is such a huge, huge loss

Well, it's official: @hakaimagazine is ceasing publication at the end of the year because our funding is being cut. I'm incredibly sad for my colleagues, for the freelance community, for the journalism ecosystem as a whole, and for myself. Editing for Hakai has been a dream.

@andrewhunterm Thank you for the kind words! I was so excited to hear the QI elves were fans of Hakai, and the affection is mutual 💞 (Hakai editor here)

At the end of the year, Hakai Magazine will be losing its funding. Working here has been my dream job—the people are wonderful, and we really take the time and care to make our stories shine. We’re still hoping another funder will step in, but for now, the future is uncertain.

The bad news is out: Hakai Magazine is shutting down at the end of 2024. We’re incredibly sad, but our team is proud of the great work we’ve done these past 10 years. We have 5 more months of beautiful and unique coastal stories to come. More info here: mailchi.mp/hakaimagazine/…

Pygmy squid secrete a sticky substance to adhere themselves to eelgrass. But with eelgrass meadows disappearing, where else could the tiny squid go? A comic: hakaimagazine.com/videos-visuals…

Remember when that video of an octopus punching a fish went viral? Well some scientists took a closer look at the biomechanics, and I illustrated it: hakaimagazine.com/videos-visuals…
