Are you an artist working in the Capital Region? We're looking for folks embedded in the local theater, music, arts, literary, film, dance, food and tech scenes to write monthly columns. https://t.co/zi6EXyZQ25

Cuomo said he didn’t know about Dem mailer; and closure of bridge after opening ceremony was “bizarre coincidence” https://t.co/rvNqjv1Knv via @TimesUnion

Noelle Gentile is a pure & talented member of our arts community, we're lucky to have people like her working so hard in our area/doing amazing projects beyond the region. Catch the screening of @theanimalsfilm at @SpectrumTheatre tm if you can. https://t.co/n767Lr1plg

Spoke to @DanLaFave and John Mongonia (@jouska_sounds) about inter-communal growth, making an album for the sake of creation, and Albany.

My last piece for @thealtweekly, and a special one for that bittersweet occasion.

You’ve probably seen the headlines: the snarky, left-learning alt weekly you’ve learned to love or love to hate is coming to end.

[Rob Galbraith @RobCGalbraith]

This is a real shame. @thealtweekly has published some really excellent reporting, especially @lukestdnathan's work on SUNY and Cuomo https://t.co/MGXQwxyx1g

A Saratoga native teaching English in Myanmar was blacklisted from the country for sharing news about the Rohingya genocide. A pretty stunning story from @katiecusackk https://t.co/vaU0s7gsqv

[Katie Cusack @katiecusackk]

"I was thinking, ‘I’m just this noisy foreigner posting things in English,’ ... I left feeling like, 'I’m still here. They didn’t haul me away. I’ll be fine.’”

We aren't dead yet!

Dalila Yeend was abruptly released from an ICE detention facility on August 16. Now she's trying to put her life back together while preparing for the possibility she'll be deported.

“I didn’t sleep the first few nights because I thought I might wake up and find that I was still in there,” Yeend says. https://t.co/6NrZef3HI0

[The Alt @thealtweekly]

Dalila Yeend is free after 2 months in an ICE detention facility. She returns home to her two young children unable to work or drive. There's a party and fundraiser tonight in Troy's Prospect Park. https://t.co/6NrZef3HI0

"Mothers and Sons" at @shakeandco is heartbreaking, haunting and beautiful. My review for @thealtweekly: https://t.co/nOLmcX9vTu

[The Alt @thealtweekly]

"The developer is “already talking to major commercial tenants that are not in the city and bringing them to this project,” Uccellini said. “One’s a publicly traded company.”

We didn't name @berben_and_wolffs best wings. They were voted that way by our readers who apparently aren't as fussy about the definition of wings.

[Daniel Berman @FUSSYlittleBLOG]

Recently @thealtweekly named Berben & Wolff's the #2 best wings for 2018 in the Capital Region. Not chicken wings. Not seitan wings. Not boneless wings. Just wings.

"Wings" has been meaningless for years. "Aioli" has been meaningless far longer.
