And with a ton of growth and gratitude, I’m ready to close this chapter by accepting a full time role as Producer for @ICYMI_pod from @Slate. It’s a show I’ve thoroughly enjoyed as a listener, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to join a team of such thoughtful journalists.

The HP world was a foundational part of my adolescence, from midnight book releases to sharing favorite fanfics with Tumblr friends. When J.K. Rowling began her public descent to anti-trans bigotry, I distanced myself from my beloved childhood series. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

As news & rumors trickled out about the cast of HBO’s upcoming HP series, I knew we needed @WeekesPrincess to give us a sense of just who exactly the series is actually for and what the current landscape of the HP online fandom looks like. open.spotify.com/episode/5yd…

It’s been 3 years since I left a stable job at NPR without a plan, but nervous hope that I’ll find something new soon. That soon became 3 years of unexpected freelancing: 3 years of chasing the next gig, 3 years of new opportunities on and off mic, and 3 years of so many tears.

Well this definitely wasn't on my bingo card for the day.

I had excellent meetings with Senators yesterday. I appreciate their thoughtful feedback - and the incredible support of so many. While the momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition. There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle, thus I'll be withdrawing my name from consideration to serve as Attorney General. Trump's DOJ must be in place and ready on Day 1.
I remain fully committed to see that Donald J. Trump is the most successful President in history. I will forever be honored that President Trump nominated me to lead the Department of Justice and I'm certain he will Save America.

This finale makes me cry every time I watch it! It's up there at The Good Place series finale territory for me.
I'm thrilled we've been getting more Adventure Time the past few years with varied vibes and story pacing and can't wait for more!
