this whole situation is just i can’t with it
And if that wasn’t enough, management decided – incredibly in the same email announcing the layoffs – to say “we are going all in on AI,” praising themselves about the use of AI in our newsroom. Tone deaf doesn’t even begin to describe this.

I am hearing of hard working Americans who voted for Trump and now are being fired from their jobs with the Parks Service, with Veterans affairs, with USAID, with NIH etc. If you are a Trump voter who is being fired or has a family member being fired, please share your story.

I got so much out of this video. The idea that #anhedonia doesn’t determine future feelings & you can still make choices towards happiness while experiencing it is so hopeful for me. #depression Anhedonia Doesn't Have To Steal Your Future! https://t.co/8TF7rrf6z3 via @YouTube

#Readoftheday The subject of how women leaders present themselves has been masterfully explored in this season of #TheDiplomat. Loved reading more about a specific iconic garment here. https://t.co/p8D8DuriCX via @NYTimes

The tie-front shirts serve as a reminder that no matter how far women have come, it’s not nearly as far as they think.

Sometimes when we borrow words from other languages, English can become delightfully redundant. ‘Scampi’ means “shrimp” so ‘shrimp scampi’ is basically “shrimp shrimp.” Sahara Desert = Desert Desert chai tea = tea tea naan bread = bread bread ahi tuna = tuna tuna
