Sections of the U.S. Constitution Missing from Government Website - MeidasTouch News Articles I, Sections 9 and 10 are inaccessible on Congress-run portal, raising concerns over transparency and public access.

The official online copy of the US Constitution is missing some critical parts. “Article I, Section 9 contains some of the most important safeguards in the Constitution, including the Writ of Habeas Corpus…” Nothing to worry about I’m sure!! [meidasnews.com]

But it does work quite well with millennials and younger who are more likely to show up for “events” that are shareable on social media. Even if that event is pizza at the pub.

Attendees described it as the MLB Fyre festival. Mild amount?

Did Craigslist decimate newspapers? Legend meets reality. - Poynter Craig Newmark’s simple site was hailed as a disruptor and blamed for the collapse of classifieds. But journalism’s business failures ran deeper.

Hi, so AI killed my career(s) and I'm barely (sometimes not) making rent. People have been telling me to start a gofundme but I feel weird about that.

A hand painted sign with the Bass red triangle that reads: “Yeast Propagation Plant... This plant is used to produce the pure cultures of yeast for lager and ale fermentation.”

We roll our eyes slightly at ‘urban exploration’ (dangerous trespassing) but this piece about the derelict Bass brewery in Burton, via blog reader Graham, is quite interesting.

Sure, We Gained Our Independence, But We Lost The Ability To Make Anything As Good As ‘Taskmaster’ | Defector The Fourth of July is always there to remind us that we aren’t the country we fancy ourselves being, but this year’s national try-not-to-blow-your-hand-off munitions festival was even grimmer given…
