Great in-depth reporting from Ukraine by @lydiatomkiw and @EmilyJReports covering mental health, wartime children's literature, and Ukrainians' perspective on the upcoming US election. Listen to their stories! 📻🎧@TheWorld (linked in thread below) https://t.co/OhMxWq0bOM

A surprisingly funny story I had the absolute joy of getting to edit, about a dispatch center in Kyrgyzstan where people are frantically helping truckers in the U.S. get deliveries to our doorsteps. https://t.co/J1vpXIsFPb

I would have gone as his character in French Dispatch. It wouldn’t have been convincing. https://t.co/DeUqgYAfjz

Fascinating read by the great @AmandaBecker - ignore women over 50 at your peril 😆https://t.co/7KylpCNoXu

Appreciated hearing this today. “Hope is something we create.” https://t.co/ZEmdgY7hr1

Awesome story by @sushmitza about how sometimes the best innovation is something simple and forgotten, not something shiny and new. How old school wells are alleviating water scarcity in India. https://t.co/LICh7xooDP

Food growers in Bangladesh and Spain on the forefront of climate change adaptation. They share a problem. Their solutions differ. Great reporting by @RachelDParsons

If you are confused about the tension over Midwestern identity and who gets to claim it in the VP race this year, shameless plug for my own work on that topic https://t.co/sOR9CdqKAO

Massachusetts is ok

Is there anything better than getting a copy of a friend’s new book? I don’t think so. I’m one chapter in, and completely in awe of the clarity, heart, and journalistic rigor @AmandaBecker brings to this tough topic.

[Gina Kaufmann @GinaKCMO]

Such a good book. Not that I’m in any way surprised. The title comes from one of my favorite sentences @Sarah_Smarsh has published (and may I note that that’s saying a lot?) - a much-needed antidote to all the superficial hot takes.

[Gina Kaufmann @GinaKCMO]

It looks and sounds like I’m about to be treated to a midwestern thunderstorm and I could not be happier about it. The storms here put everyplace else to shame and I have really missed them. Ah!!!!! It’s starting!!!! Weird sky color, let’s go.

Excellent reporting on why so many therapists have stopped working with insurance companies. https://t.co/zkw08JDuHg

On this 3rd anniversary of the fall of Kabul, an incredible story incredibly told by @Shirinj - “Afghanistan has always been more than a story.” https://t.co/iqBslSdvVx

@QuintonLucasKC This is how it works in MA

Thesis: the eating habits of parents with sick children are indistinguishable from those of drunk 20-somethings circa 3 a.m.

Fast-changing political situations draw me back to this site, pretty predictably. Here’s a reminder of why you gotta be careful about letting social media be a significant source of info. https://t.co/GDaI4tSzRY

If you live in Kansas City, you need this.

I've been so busy building this thing that I haven't had much time to promote it, so here it is:

The 2024 KC Voter Guide. An unprecedented collaboration between multiple newsrooms in Kansas City trying to make this election more accessible to voters. https://t.co/Jiun2LDO5K
