The way WAMU handled DCist was a shitshow. Now some of those journalists have banded together to launch a new DC-oriented nonprofit local news site. Donate here: givebutter.com/The51st

When Sherlock Holmes says "the game is afoot," that phrase doesn't mean "the challenge has started," but "the prey is running," as when they used to let foxes out of cages to begin fox hunts.

Factoid doesn't mean little fact, it means erroneous fact that is repeated so often that it is believed to be true so the idea that factoid just means a little fact is itself a factoid

okay it's time for a prompt post: respond to this post with a correction to a common misconception about something you know a lot about. if you feel like it, boost your response. (please use a kindly tone about it, otherwise i, your prompt curator, will get anxious.)

i just want to register that i don't think those suspensions were inevitable and i am not happy with how any of this shit has gone. i am hoping that the tech improves so it's easier for people to filter their mentions though

im going to talk about the discourse broadly without naming names. it's ok to think im wrong on some of it but i have some ways that i think people should consider changing their behavior

Trump just named as his #2 a guy who called for insurrection charges against a journalist for writing an op-ed & wants to censor academics and seize the assets of nonprofits he opposes. The "free speech" brigades haven't said a goddamn thing. And their benefactor just pledged $150m to elect him.
