The building @ 305 South Congress Ave was home to the Statesman from 1980-2021. The site now seems to be mainly used as paid public parking (& is popular w/ bat bridge visitors). The property will be redeveloped as a mixed-use space in the future https://t.co/37fSMgG2zC

Here are 6 graphs everyone needs to see:
I don’t have time to read books or watch movies I only have time to watch 13 hrs of disjointed, chaotic content that leaves me feeling deeply anxious and alone
The worry about $8 verification for everybody isn’t that somebody is going to impersonate Joe Biden. It’s that they’re going to impersonate a no-name in a position of power — an election official, a CDC worker, a local news reporter — and cause chaos. Much less solvable problem.
As long as the journalism field continues to view journalists from marginalized groups covering the issues they have proximity to as biased instead of informed, the field will remain white and straight and issues will continue to not get the coverage and perspective it needs.
