Programming note: I'm (mostly) leaving Twitter for my mental health. My email is findable; you can still book 30 min with me: https://t.co/aak2SkOK8S
I'll still schedule tweets & promote great work/jobs. But overall, I'll be here less. A thread in the name of learning out loud:
I will *not* be deleting my profile here, but I'll let it lie dormant because I do not want to leave the handle open to the trolls who have decided to reside here.
You probably saw this coming, but I'm actually not going to be here anymore. For all the reasons all other journalists list, but in the time since I've stepped away after some unkind actions a couple years ago, nothing has improved.
I'm here now: https://t.co/4kQlbDG2Cm

I’ve been laid off from my job covering criminal justice at @wamu885/ @DCist. Thank you to all of the DMV residents who trusted me with your stories. It was an honor and I felt like I was just getting started. Please support my colleagues at @WeMakeWAMU
What do you call a phase that’s not quite burnout, not a depressive episode, just feeling meh?
One that you don't even notice you’re in until you look back and think: “I wasn’t feeling my best then”
I thought of a ‘meh field’ but looked it up and seems like I hallucinated it?
Breaking news: @LAist's @josie_huang, represented by attorneys from @rcfp and @gibsondunn, reached a settlement with LA County and the LA County Sheriff’s Department that sets a new benchmark for journalists whose rights are violated by law enforcement. https://t.co/q3twrMKjpz
When men get to their 40s and 50s they are considered to be in their prime, yet women of the same age continue to bump up against age-related constraints. Thank you @kelkord for interviewing me & spreading this research!

Two new tools to investigate neighborhood inequality where you live:
- Start with @biglocal's United States Place Sampler to build a set of addresses
- Then use @themarkup's Google Sheet template to match them up with socioeconomic data
Here's how 👇
