🚨Stop what you're doing, and read this inspiring and vulnerable piece from TNC member @nghertel of @MnTheoptimist about what it's like to be a news entrepreneur. Thanks to @RJI for providing a platform for Nora to share her story.

I've tracked #COVID19 stats in Minnesota since March 2020, first at MPR, and then as an open-source project.
It doesn't take much effort any more — I basically click a button once a week & let my code run. But it's time: I'll be sunsetting maintenance of this project on Dec. 31.

.@nghertel: When professional opportunities arise, I have learned to ask myself:
— Do I have time?
— Will it help @MnTheoptimist develop revenue streams or audience or advance our mission? rjionline.org/news/the-highs…

Hey @Meta-Can I get some real help? I have been locked out of my personal and professional FB pages for weeks. My primary cell phone stopped working and all other modes of 2-factor authentication have failed to grant access. I will stop paying for boosted posts if I can't get in!

Looking for examples of fictional women characters (movies, tv, books, whatever) whose excellence & success stems in part from their organizational and planning skills
[Forget the part of the plot where the right man "loosens them up" a la The Wedding Planner, I don't care]

the last reporter at the st cloud times is leaving in february -- meaning a metro area of around 200,000 people has a shell of a newspaper. @CathyWurzer talked with @nghertel about what that means for the region. mprnews.org/episode/2023/0…

Just got in an argument with my 3yo about whether bats are just Halloween creatures or real animals that live in Minnesota.
3yo: I'm right. You're wrong.
Me: That's not a very nice thing to say.
3yo: You're wrong. I'm right.

@kirstimarohn I sent a package to The Netherlands in early July. Yesterday it showed up on my doorstep. I'm not sure yet what the problem was. I'll send you a note if it was a USPS issue and not an issue with the post in Europe.

Folks in St. Cloud/Brainerd/other greater Minnesota cities: Have you experienced delays with USPS mail delivery? Are you willing to talk about how it's affected you or your business for a story? Send email including your contact info to kmarohn@mpr.org.

According to a new study by David Rozado, there has been a big increase in news headlines suggesting fear, anger, disgust, and sadness since 2000, and especially since about 2010. Journalists are pushing your buttons.
