This is bonkers, these people have all passed a series of interviews and checks. Pulling people from the citizenship ceremony is really just cruel.

Avery Brundage hold my beer.

bro you could not make this FIFA shit up. Just comic book stuff.

Rep Grijalva is continuing to be an example of how the law applies very differently depending on who you are.

lol, I feel you. if you get to a place where you need the time outside but can't make ends meet I'll help you out

just to follow up on this, every award I have ever won has come as a shock to me when they mail me the thing after they announce. Most awards I can't afford to enter, the ones I have won are when the publication entered on my behalf.

a little, not a lot. But I’m good at looking at maps and I have a ton of people I can tap for local know how. I think the park itself restricts dogs to certain trails

Even if you just wanna do a zoom to go over planning, packing etc. I would love to do that, I love helping people feel safe outside

Really interested in doing more guiding and helping people plan and prepare for outdoors adventures next year. I also really need to make some money. if you’re interested, dm me and id love to work something out

Does anyone in here happen to know how to get a byline added / changed on muck rack?

FWIW the initial reason some of these countries were listed wasn’t because they posed any risk, the justification used was the percentage of people from those countries who overstayed visas.

Strengthen the Freedom of Information Act Defending press freedom for the next generation

From endless delays in response time to ridiculously overbroad redactions, FOIA is plagued with problems.

Urge Congress to reform the law using our easy action center tool:

How do you dominate it? Make a true crime podcast would be my best guess. Or have two dudes talk about shit they don’t understand for 5 hours.

But idk really, most awards are very expensive to enter

Here’s my customary “don’t give up hope” episode. I hope it helps you get through a shitty end of a tough year.

yeah agreed. I benefitted so much from good editors who helped me be a better writer.

Introducing The Union Bug, a new podcast The Union Bug is a podcast by workers, for workers. Premiering January 2.

Hello! I am excited to finally announce the details of my new podcast. Introducing The Union Bug—a podcast by workers, for workers. Premiering Jan 2.

yeah people are doing rad shit, I just hope that they keep doing it and don't fade out when it becomes clear they can't make much of a living.

Yeah. I can’t see how we are gonna get younger folks to want to be journalists with how shit it is now

You absolutely fucking love to see it.

It’s incredible how much integrity and solidarity Greta has shown. In a world full of spineless quislings and grifters, she’s really a hero.

This isn’t the ideal solution. But I’m still happy when people who are pointlessly incarcerated stop being pointlessly incarcerated

Yeah I mean, two things can be bad.

It doesn’t matter to me, but I would be happy knowing you supported a cool book shop. I love book shops

I have a story pretty well half written about this is anyone knows an outlet that still pays freelancers

Wishing you and your son the best with that, it’s certainly not easy. Glad your students can still come there and feel safe.

my book drops 1/26 @akpress.org , help me outsell Nuzzi. www.akpress.org/against-the-...

Aaron is right about this. Carceral liberalism and its consequences remain a disaster for this country, as you can see in the replies and in the streets of most big cities.

man, I need to start one of those "I will teach you the secret dark arts of pitching/ freelancing" grifts. Seems a lot more reliable than actually pitching these days.

thanks! Very kind

In the third episode of a four part series, @jamesstout.bsky.social talks about ICE raids, Primrose’s time in detention, and the start of mass protest against Trump’s mass deportations.
