I have used Twitter to find sources and read what others are up to, and I do enjoy my Twitter conversations about bicycling.
And I've tried to not be that person who's always Tweeting too hard.
But credibility counts.
I support this move by LAist and NPR.
LAist supports NPR's decision and, in solidarity, will no longer post to our Twitter accounts.
While you will no longer see fresh content on our Twitter account, there are many other ways to access our local news and programming.

Restrooms can get taken for granted. If you work late hours, where do you go? What about if you're unhoused?
In my latest, I explore history of pay toilets and why we have only 14 of a key city solution now: permanent public toilets. @LAist

🧵 My phone says it's snowing right now in the tiny community of Twin Peaks in the #SanBernardino Mountains.
And I keep thinking about the man I profiled in this story:

I obtained data from @LASDHQ showing that nearly 15,000 evictions were served in L.A. from April 2020 through Dec. 2022.
For another @LAist story today, @julia_p_barajas interviewed L.A. renters who worry they may be next. laist.com/news/housing-homel…

#Storm brings rain and low snow; CA's liberal counties see more #concealedcarry apps and #firearms safety training; mom seeks justice in son's cold case killing; #Dodgers will play #OpeningDay under new LEDs
People are still suffering in our mountain communities, and relying on each other for help. My colleague @Erstone7 reports:
The role of #mutualaid will likely grow as the #climatecrisis drives more extreme weather & local gov resources are overwhelmed. The situation in San Bernardino mountains reveals need gaps that locals are working to fill together: laist.com/news/climate-envir…

I checked in on one of my favorite problems in LA: potholes. And to the surprise of no one, they've been real bad with our many, many storms. 🌧️
Here's how to report those craters and get money back if your car is damaged. @LAist

Hey, @LAist and @KPCC need your help today. Just a couple dollars donated today get doubled. Here is why we need your support and also photos of my excellent colleagues in case you’ve been curious who writes/speaks all those stories.

In addition to doing radio news I have a history of helping people achieve their goal of completing a marathon.
20k people ran the @lamarathon on Sunday including our very own newsletter writer, @aarickawash!
She joins @bdelossantos1 on #HowToLA for a look back at how the running community motivated her every step of the way, including @KPCCsharon.

This was a super fun story from @KPCCsharon. Great to get the story behind @NPRmageddon ! laist.com/news/los-angeles-a…
Sharon McNary retweeted
Such a thrill to be interviewed by the compelling @KPCCsharon about NPRmageddon.
I'm so used to talking back at my radio. It's such a rare treat for the radio to talk back to me!
laist.com/news/los-angeles-a…
It me.
Don't miss @KPCCsharon talking to the team behind @NPRmageddon about their new series and why they make badass reporters like her look even more badass. (And now I'm probably in trouble with her for bad language!) laist.com/news/los-angeles-a…

Running Springs resident Chris Bush has been trapped in his snowed-in home for a week.
He said he felt abandoned by authorities. But community members were stepping up.
"The only people helping us are us."
