    Well, I'm going to be sitting with this for a bit. Thank you.

    Fiction tells us families come together after a death, but, in reality, they usually don’t. Instead, what often happens is previously existing toxic dynamics become more intense, not less. Sometimes family ties break altogether. I feel like that’s happening now, with humanity.

    Wheeeeew, I didn't expect this to hit home the way it did, but having personally seen the family dynamics piece, this makes so much sense.

    Wonderful to see feminist artist get more recognition. This “Your body is a battleground” piece is from 1989. (I had a tee shirt with this piece on it that I wore back then.)

    Before I started writing this story, I had no idea what Valley fever was or how it worked. Neither did anyone I grew up with. But some people are painfully aware of the infection, which is caused by a fungus that grows in parts of the western U.S.

    The declined to comment on secret recordings of Agent David Ko helping a source with child endangerment case in exchange for ongoing intel on dissident journalists like me. In their defense, that's a hell of a thing to have to explain.

    Hi… I’m here. I literally research disinformation and extremism on TikTok specifically. And from where I stand, the problem isn’t that there aren’t young researchers. The problem is that we aren’t being invited into the room.

    “There’s something to be said about the demographics of researchers — they tend to skew older. Very few can hear the first five seconds of a TikTok video and know what song that’s referencing.” says me
