Ha! You’re not wrong and I’ll continue that this year in some capacity + yes, they are calling for it. Which I get! But, there’s just a lot to it I guess for why we are not as “happy” (for lack of being more detailed) as journalists right now. But it’s not a zero sum game.

But yeah to your last point, it’s near impossible because of how people consume media nowadays. For me, personally, I’m a bit too verbose in general, but it also has always (imo) been viewed as my strong point for being so detail-oriented and story-driven. That’s been taken away. Or being.

Yeah, super long conversation to be had here, of course. more or less, it’s a double edged sword because your time spent still matters to keep relevance, personally, but then you’re expected double duty being a master of SEO + quality (audience-driven) and keeping up with “trends” to drive traffic

Twitter is essentially just for your personal platform and to gain notoriety with viral tweets etc. it’s not for traffic. Most of that nowadays is through google. Facebook used to be a good driver.

Yeah it’s why I don’t take Twitter seriously when it comes to my work nowadays. The app actually hides posts with links. It’s why you get the interaction bait things without links.

$10B of 🫵 your money. You should be mad.

I feel bad for our guy Clayton. Oof.

Flurries a bit north of y’all too and west

Agreed, but it would be selfish to enjoy that right now.

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

The hits: they keep on coming

Todd Monken @CoachToddMonken X.com Don't get the Trump hatred. All the man did was run for office and the ELECTORAL COLLEGE voted him in. Is that his fault? Don't think so! 9:34 PM • 1/21/17

Back in 2017 new Browns head coach Todd Monken did not understand why everyone was so mad at Donald Trump for winning the electoral college

DOJ has since killed this link. This is what was there:

JD Vance Is Awfully Close With These Race Science Guys Government data is being used to normalize and mainstream race science

JD Vance's online buddies are using data from NIH studies to advance and normalize race science and no one seems to care. I'm losing my mind.

A rock should have beat this man. You're part of the problem if you didn't vote against him IMO.

All of this could have been prevented Nov. 2024.

just not good times we live in

So late in the cycle for the Vikings to be on look out for new GM.

The Vikings are firing GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, a source tells The Athletic.

AND Georgia Fort btw. This should be a HUGE red flag and wake-up call for ANY AND ALL journalists of any field. You're not protected, you're not safe, and it's something you should care about deeply. Use fear, whatever to give yourself confidence to do what's right.

You'd hope with Lemon being arrested, reporters around the country would wake up and actually do reporting and ask questions that will help the American people see the truth instead of just continuing to do TV podcasts.

My pan didn’t arrive, go ahead and send again.

To be clear, this is illegal for officers to do.

They have no clue how to cover it because all serious journalists have been effectively nurtured or purged. Self-fulfilled prophecy
