They’re each other’s best friend (also they do each have their own crates but just choose to cuddle)

SO happy to see this happening! Athens folks, your local paper is unionizing! Go support them!
Replying to @GAGannettNG
The reporters of the Athens Banner-Herald and the Savannah Morning News now join the @newsguild, and it is our hope that through collective action we can begin working to build a better local news infrastructure for the communities we serve.

The conservative parent mindset: how bout we go a step further than arming teachers with guns and also let elementary kids carry knives.

Every since I started working from home, I’ve found coffee shops help me focus. The change of scenery from my house is almost like going into an office and sparks something productive in me
i’m sorry but is there anyone who can actually write and get work done in a café or can we all agree it’s just for show? unless it’s about having a level of concentration/dedication that i don’t have, in which case i surrender

Buried the lede a bit imo: “In a statement to Classic City News after her arrest, Thornton said that “intoxication was not a factor” in the accident and that she was working with her attorney “to correct the DUI charge.” classiccitynews.com/post/rep…

It’s such a bold claim and either way, the implications are pretty bad Option A: Ovita is straight up lying about a DUI Option B: ACCPD really messed up, leading to more questions of how, why, and has this happened to other people I’d sure wanna know which option is the truth

Also I realized I said ACCPD when really I should’ve just said LEO since the article mentions both sheriffs deputies and police officers. It seems to me that the PD was the arresting agency? But always a good reminder that police and sheriff are two different agencies

I learned today I should probably delete all the phone contacts I built up in journalism, lest I want to accidentally text another state rep a Reddit link again I just have a weird attachment to all these (now useless) phone contacts, I have the #’s of the most random people

This is almost as funny/bad as when I accidentally added an old work source to a DND group chat where we planned out the bombing of our fake city She didn’t leave the chat for hours, after we repeatedly referred to our fantasy plan as “terrorism”… she works in veteran relations

My second ever attempt at macarons went better than the first attempt so I guess that’s all I could’ve asked for

Rail workers: hey we’re going to strike bc of unsafe conditions, bad benefits, & overworking that could lead accidents if things aren’t fixed Conspiracist: Wow there are these trains derailing 😲this is so unprecedented 🤔it a MUST be a coordinated attack and no other reason 🥱
JUST IN: Another train has DERAILED in #Michigan that was carrying hazardous materials. What is going on? This seems like a coordinated attack on our railway system across the country. I’ve noticed it’s in key battleground election states too. Ohio, Arizona, Michigan, Texas.
Community note
safetydata.fra.dot.gov/officeofsafety… There are over 1000 train derailments on average per year. Even considering that some single derailments are reported twice, that still is an average of a minimum of 2 per day.

is “no one talking about it” or did a local paper cover it and you didn’t read the story

Little Rock residents are also upset with their public art so I say we propose a trade: all the blue squiggles in exchange for the roller-skating banana
