I've been mulling this newsletter idea for a while. Given my current circumstances, I felt like launching it now.

I'm starting "Almost A Met," a newsletter that does deep-dive research on people who were *almost* New York Mets.

Ok, so more on this soon. I promise. #LGM

Last week, I was one of the many people laid off by the Daily Dot. I started in 2022 as a freelance writer, and was ecstatic when I made News Editor shortly after.

I’ll miss writing my weekly column on Gen Zalpha brainrot. That being said, I’m open to any writing opportunities!

You rock, Gisselle! Your column was loved by our readers each and every week.

Consider me biased, but I saw every day the hard work that Andrew did at the Daily Dot. He worked tirelessly for his readers and was always looking for ways to engage them, build trust, and provide value via the "newspaper of the internet." He is such a smart, sharp, and tireless editor/journalist.

So sad to hear about friends & former coworkers losing their jobs last week. Hire @andrewwyrich.bsky.social @davidcovucci.bsky.social @mikaelthalen.bsky.social & others who got laid off. You won’t regret it!

Thank you Tiffany!!!
