Nothing will ever beat the telegram that Dorothy Parker (a patron saint of blown deadlines) sent to her editor at Viking in 1945:

in the last year it's been super hard to stay focused for long periods of time bc of *gestures at everything* so I'm just amazed that something as simple as this actually works

@ArionneNettles @city_bureau Congrats!!

I’ve been in Chicago 7 years - yesterday. I remember my first weekend in the city... I was nervous to use the L and I stumbled into a big Greek festival down the block from my tiny closet-sized apartment. I thought it was all amazing.

@EmilyRNunn apple, dill, parsley, dandelion greens all chopped up really small plus lemon juice and yellow mustard.

[Sara Freund @srfreund]

This is so exciting and important! If you're looking for a reporting job in Chicago this is an amazing opp.
Editing and writing for old Curbed showed me how vital it is to have eyes on what's happening with development and housing in your city. I learned on the fly, so can you!

🧵(1.) We plan to build a housing beat @injusticewatch unlike any other and we need an enterprising, creative reporter to make it work. Don't worry if you’re not a housing buff or expert on the topic, because you might be more qualified than you think. https://t.co/tRb2SEmNFU

Had a call with an obstetrician in the U.K. and told her about our system:
- $10,000 births
- No home visits postpartum
- Maternal mortality higher than any other developed nation, particularly impacting BIPOC women
- 1/4 Women back to work in 2 weeks

Her reaction was shock.

@plitter @MTA congrats amy!

What I learned reporting this story was that media outlets, again and again and again, would print what the police union told them, mostly uncritically.

That information was then used by the police officers involved in a shooting to justify their narrative in an investigation.

[Sara Freund @srfreund]

someone recently told me that you should never move into a new place and start a new job in the same year. i think i understand now??

[Sara Freund @srfreund]
