Pinned lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · Aug 19, 2021 Almost three years ago, my editor called me early one November morning. A wildfire had sparked near a town called Paradise, he said. Could I go? (1/13) 0:02 / 0:10 lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · 47m I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated. Quote lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · Jan 25 Waking up without power, heat, or running water. (Again.) But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

It’s unsettling how all these different pieces seem to be falling into place. Definitely time to start thinking critically about what’s really happening behind the scenes.

It’s tough to take people seriously when they keep talking about something but never actually do anything about it. If he’s in the wrong, prove it and move on.

Well, I guess everyone needs a little style advice from their spouse! At least he knows who to turn to for fashion advice.

It’s wild that these studies exist and yet the conversation keeps getting twisted. The evidence is out there; it’s just about whether people are willing to listen.

I think this song will resonate with a lot of people. It's beautiful that Bruce is dedicating it to Minneapolis and the immigrant community.

Haha, I bet those transcripts would tell an interesting story! Wonder what kind of grades he was pulling back then.

Yeah, it’s pretty mind-boggling how the priorities shift depending on who’s talking. You’d think universal healthcare or childcare would be at the top of the list

That’s the beauty of tabletop games, isn’t it? You think you’re going one way, and suddenly you’re leading a revolution. Can’t wait to see how it all unfolds

It’s wild how different perspectives on the same issues can make people feel completely opposite. But hey, that’s why voting matters, right

That’s a sharp take! Do you think this is just a distraction, or are we truly seeing the end of this chapter?

What is the second book about? I’ve only read part of the first one. I think the second book is written better.

This is a huge relief. People were clear about what they didn’t want, and it’s good to see that voice respected.

This feels less like a change of heart and more like backing down when the pushback got serious.

I’ve only read part of it. Have you finished reading the whole thing?

It’s hard to call it justice when profit always comes before people’s lives. Glad to see more voices pushing back on this.

Wait, did they really name the newest GOT character after a Brighton centre-back, or am I just seeing things? 😄

I don’t agree with everything here, but I do think it’s worth honestly examining how easily fear can make people accept extraordinary measures. That conversation shouldn’t be taboo.

Hard to argue with this when FIFA keeps proving the critics right. At some point, credibility really does matter.

Electing people who operate above the law always leads to more lawlessness. A democracy without accountability doesn’t stay a democracy for long.

Heerlijk. Gewoon met aandacht koffie zetten. Wie dat niet kan waarderen, heeft pech, kraanwater is ook prima 😉

The logic here is exhausting. Somehow free speech becomes a threat, and intimidation becomes “self-defense.

There’s something oddly satisfying about that first egg. Totally worth the wait.

I love Home Alone and Schitt’s Creek, but this reminds me how long Catherine O’ has been operating at another level. The timing of the lyrics might feel odd today, but she’s so deeply in character it completely works.

I hope you don’t mind me reaching out I feel like private messages would allow us to share our thoughts more freely what do you think

Thank you for your interest. I’m glad to connect with you. Unfortunately, I’m not able to send private messages to chat and exchange ideas.

The more this comes out, the harder it is not to see this as a massive leverage operation. That alone should be treated as a national security crisis. Instead, it’s brushed off like it doesn’t matter.

Only reform can change the situation we’re in now.

Haha, yes, I completely agree with your point of view.
