I've spent the last year talking to women with sickle cell disease who've felt pushed into getting sterilized when they still wanted more kids and weren't given adequate information, sometimes as recently as 2017 and 2022. https://t.co/8QoywqfkW8

A horrible, terrible no-good very bad scoop from me today (God I'm so sick of this sh*t): @kqed is planning to lay off 18-25 employees due to budget deficit. Too bad they spent $94 million on a renovation 2 years ago. Link to my newsletter in bio.

The news is out to members: LAist will be offering buyouts to staff. It may not be enough to prevent layoffs. There will be plenty of work happening over the next few weeks with our union, but I ask that if you love LAist, consider donating: https://t.co/tgyAd8Sfu2
