Nothing will ever beat the telegram that Dorothy Parker (a patron saint of blown deadlines) sent to her editor at Viking in 1945:

in the last year it's been super hard to stay focused for long periods of time bc of *gestures at everything* so I'm just amazed that something as simple as this actually works

@ArionneNettles @city_bureau Congrats!!

Buzzed into the new month with a new job as the deputy editor at @City_Bureau. I’ll be managing the fellowship program (YES!) and content strategy for Chicago programs. I love this place and its mission, so I’m just really honored to be part of the City Bureau family.

I’ve been in Chicago 7 years - yesterday. I remember my first weekend in the city... I was nervous to use the L and I stumbled into a big Greek festival down the block from my tiny closet-sized apartment. I thought it was all amazing.

@EmilyRNunn apple, dill, parsley, dandelion greens all chopped up really small plus lemon juice and yellow mustard.

This is so exciting and important! If you're looking for a reporting job in Chicago this is an amazing opp. Editing and writing for old Curbed showed me how vital it is to have eyes on what's happening with development and housing in your city. I learned on the fly, so can you!

Had a call with an obstetrician in the U.K. and told her about our system: - $10,000 births - No home visits postpartum - Maternal mortality higher than any other developed nation, particularly impacting BIPOC women - 1/4 Women back to work in 2 weeks Her reaction was shock.

@plitter @MTA congrats amy!

What I learned reporting this story was that media outlets, again and again and again, would print what the police union told them, mostly uncritically. That information was then used by the police officers involved in a shooting to justify their narrative in an investigation.

someone recently told me that you should never move into a new place and start a new job in the same year. i think i understand now??

I need more of this

@sallykuchar How do they have just A SINGLE EXCAVATOR digging it out?

@sallykuchar Jordan works for a logistics tech company that is tracking all the shipments in there. IT IS A NIGHTMARE FOR THEM!! But also v fascinating.

Is anyone else completely obsessed with the big boat stuck in the Suez Canal story? I can’t stop thinking about it.
