Just gonna pin this: one of my "hobbies" is tracking far-right extremism in Central Texas. Someone has to do it. Any investigative reporters interested in info sharing, ask me about my "crazy murder wall" map!
This story always warms my heart.
It all started in 1955 with a misprint in a Colorado newspaper and a call to Col. Harry Shoup's secret military hotline. Shoup played along with the tiny voice who called, and a tradition was born. From the NPR archives.
NORAD's Santa Tracker began with a typo and a good sport

Three years and one month from today, I’m going to grab a pickax and pull those letters off that building, but I’m going to need help holding the ladder. Are you in? Applying for my carpenter’s card today, so it’ll be a union job!!!

Went to a gorgeous church in New Orleans, St. Anna's Episcopal, this past Sunday. There was a brown baby Jesus. The service was great.

Home from NOLA. It was great. Didn't get to do everything, but got to do plenty of the unexpected. Hats off to this sexy taco on Carrollton and the sign forbidding ICE access beside it.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

You can’t convince me that Dem leadership gives a fuck about a single part of their platform. They’ll say compromise advances immediate goals like it’s not a veil of morality shielding platitudes and placation, but, in truth, all this party does is lose the long game, faster and faster, to oblivion.

This is really upsetting.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.
