@decadentquill In January I discovered an 85-hour playlist of authentic medieval & Tudor Christmas carols, and have been listening to it the ENTIRE year, haha. Traditional carols are just about my favorite thing in this world.

Layoffs suck. @PressClubDC is committed to helping reporters.

This Friday, all recently laid off reporters are invited to the Club for free tacos, drinks, and camaraderie.

We’ll also have additional resources to help folks.

Lots of well deserved remembrances of Ellsberg’s heroism today. I’ll just post my favorite passage from his incredible memoir, Secrets. He’s telling Henry Kissinger (who as many have noted is somehow still alive) what access to truly secret information can do to a person’s mind.

Hypothetical: an American reporter has embedded with an enemy unit of the United States during war and they are preparing to ambush an American platoon. Do you film/report it or do you warn the American platoon of the ambush? Westmoreland, Scowcroft, Jennings, and Wallace discuss

Bertie Bowman was a “son of South Carolina sharecroppers who arrived at the US Capitol in 1944 as a 13-year-old runaway, got a $2-a-week job sweeping the building’s steps, and then became the longest-serving African American congressional aide in history.” https://t.co/HBgWWLZvW7

@JayHulmePoet Honestly there’s no better card to send with a gift that doesn’t include some version of the line “this goes with you because I love you and thought of you”.

@no_good_wyfe I think it’s a corollary to the “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure Test for Costume Accuracy”.

Damn. Great read. @timhwang of course.

Have a few codes for the other place where the atmosphere has a cerulean color … dm if you want one!

[Mary Galeti @TecovasFound]

@clhubes @andreaducas Same! Despite googling and asking around, and living in Chevy chase (dc side) I can’t find it! Would love to know more.

[Mary Galeti @TecovasFound]

@timhwang I’m gonna live wild and go with Terry Pratchett, Going Postal. Late stage capitalism. Invented things to collect. Wizardry. Tyrants (benevolent and otherwise).

@samsanders Yes. It introduces you to the people who were your grownups in a whole new way.
