@kitsonhere Seriously the most frustrating thing I’ve dealt with all year

[Daphne Mark @damark_sci]

Mine included a silver chain from my late grandma, bought before flooding from Hurricane Harvey destroyed her home. Even if she kept it, do you think a paper receipt survived that? I can identify the exact chain pattern from the @jamesavery website. But AA won’t reimburse 5/

When I submitted a claim for reimbursement/replacement (no way are they finding my stud earrings the airport back rooms) it was rejected because I did not have receipts showing proof of purchase. Think about your jewelry box. How many items do you have proof of purchase for? 4/

An incredible read w troubling signs for journalists covering trauma stories that go against network interests

🚨I wrote about the millions of people who lost loved ones to COVID, what they've gone through, and the many factors that have intensified and prolonged their grief.

This piece is my attempt to honor those we lost, and the many more who love them. 1/

It feels wrong to celebrate while there is so much turmoil in the world, but several of my @pulitzercenter stories are now online. Maybe taking a moment to feel good about a local success can take your mind off the boiling global crises? 🤷 Worth a shot?

Last blog for #jo704! The episode where Daph goes off on an tangent about science journalism and doesn't actually analyze an article at all.

Reminder for journos that just because the Omicron variant was identified in South Africa, that does not mean it originated there.
