Bravo, Cleveland Plain Dealer.
A newspaper editor — Chris Quinn of the Cleveland Plain Dealer — says it as clearly as he can:

A remarkable & searing piece by @mikespiesnyc, where he penetrates the secret world of NRA suicides to tell the larger tale of the connection btn guns & self-harm.
I often lament that there are no prizes for Degree of Difficulty but this would earn one.

Russia is going after Masha Gessen with criminal charges based on her exemplary reporting about Putin's horrendous misdeeds. Stand in support of Gessen and consider this a warning of what could happen in the U.S. if Trump returns to power. More here: journalism.cuny.edu/2023/12/…

Nothing to see here, just the owner of this site and a presidential candidate chatting it up with a man indicted for rape/human trafficking and another who lied about dead kids to harass their grieving parents.
This may really be the bottom.

Crowd is building in front of #SCOTUS demanding the Court not allow people subject to domestic violence restraining orders to have access to guns.
Capitol Police set up an area for the 2A crowd. So far, nada.

People insist on comparing other cities to NY. It’s a fool’s errand, especially around Halloween.
"Should an algorithm be considered a neutral tool or a

Wiliam Zinsser, born this day and author of the indispensable "On Writing Well": "Writers must therefore constantly ask: what am I trying to say? Surprisingly often they don’t know." Exactly. I find that when a writer struggles, the issue often isn't language. It's fuzzy ideas.
I've been listening to @jeffgoodell's absorbing and terrifying and maddening new book, The Heat Will Kill You First, and I can't stop thinking about trees screaming in high heat, and the idea that with the right kind of microphone, you can actually hear them screaming🤯
Congratulations and celebrations @mt_connolly! I can’t wait to read it!
Thanks @richeis315! Great talking with you about about The Measure of Our Age (coming out 7/18) for @NextAvenue. nextavenue.org/how-to-fix-am…

Fatima Mohammad was honored with giving the commencement speech at her CUNY Law School graduation.
CUNY, a government institution, tarnished this ceremony by wrongly suggesting the contents of her speech were not constitutionally protected.
CUNY should know better.
We urge all lawyers, law students, legal workers & legal organizations to speak out in defense of Fatima Mohammed and denounce this attack by university administration
See below for our full statement of support & ways to get involved
