Now that spring is here I've had the chance to explore and learn more about our utilities at @CityOfIndepMO! (And realizing I definitely did not pay close enough attention in chemistry and biology)

I'm absolutely dying at the all journalists on my TL -- who are now all over the country -- celebrating this moment. Big day for CoMo, even bigger day for (former) Missourian reporters

[Columbia Missourian @CoMissourian]

Columbia City Council unanimously approved an ordinance outlining the switch to roll carts for solid waste collection.

The change would go into effect on March 4, 2024, and only addresses trash.

One time I was reading an article for background about something and I was like, "Wow this is informative." And then got to the bottom and I was the one who had written it.

[Kayla Epstein 📰 @KaylaEpstein]

Me, immediately after a story publishes: Wow, I am the worst writer on the planet, why did my bosses publish this garbage

Me, rereading it two years later: Damn, I used to be such a great writer, what happened

[Riley Newton @ReportingRy]

The calm before the storm..
