The tragedy in Pakistan is a stark reminder of climate injustice. The top map shows which nations are most responsible for excess emissions. The bottom map shows which nations are most impacted by it. Climate breakdown is playing out along colonial lines.

The number of Native Hawaiian men enrolled in Hawaii community colleges has declined by 40% in the last decade. The impacts of that go well beyond lost economic opportunity. civilbeat.org/2022/08/fewer-…

I'm wrapping an interview on deadline while my toddler marches around the living room alternating between saying "I'm the mother. I'm very busy. I have many things to do," and "I'm the mother. I need more wine." Going to try and not overanalyze that this says about my parenting.

How cool is this?? #sschat #AfricanAmericanHistory

If you're a journalist who was recently laid off and you're interested in one of the positions at Civil Beat, my DMs are open. Happy to answer questions or connect you to the right person.

Well, shit. This is not good news. washingtonpost.com/health/20…

By age 30, you should have lower back pain, one failed relationship that almost broke you and a constant sense of dread about where society is headed.

In the 1980s, "Betty Ann had borrowed twenty-nine thousand dollars in federal loans. Today, she owes $329,309.69 in student debt. She is ninety-one years old." newyorker.com/news/us-journa…

America is the fact that 3 editors have asked me to write about the formula shortage but I can't do it because of a different crisis, which is that I have no childcare for the same child I also don't have formula for.

Well, what a bittersweet day! Two James Beard noms when I’m imminently unemployed. Thanks to my @thecounter colleagues who appreciated my work and helped make some of the nominated pieces possible. Too bad we were all considered disposable.

I joined @TheCounter as senior editor the week after the 2020 elections. I described it as "a small but mighty" food publication. Now, the small and mighty has fallen. All editorial employees — other than publisher Jeffrey Kittay — are being laid off. I wish I really knew why.

I am relieved this news is now public, but also pained because it makes it more real. The last week has been one of the most overwhelming and confusing professional experiences of my life—and this is my second layoff in three years.

I started @TheCounter about 3 years ago. @WritersofColor listed the job and several months later I was hired for my first full-time gig in journalism. The layoffs have left me in disbelief and the publication will cease to exist by the end of May.

Thinking about how ridiculously ambitious I used to pre-pandemic get with NYE resolutions. Now (if I bothered with resolutions) they'd simply be: Take care of my kid. Don't totally botch work. Survive the year. Oh. Maybe eat a balanced meal sometimes

I used to love planning reporting trips more than anything. Planning a reporting trip now (but during a pandemic and with a toddler) is as terrifying as it is exciting. Journalists out there with kids, send me your tips for surviving this!
