Tonight at 9:30pm EST on @scrippsnews you can watch our latest episode of #ScrippsNewsInvestigates.
We tackle a particularly heavy and gut wrenching issue, children dying of #fentanyl overdoses. @ljgliha and @rittanyreeman's reporting is phenomenal as always.
Flying @SouthwestAir with camera gear today and was surprised to learn they now charge $125 per bag after your first 2 - up from $75 per extra bag. Idk who’s pocketing all this extra money but it a’int us! 😂
Just popping in to say how unbelievably excited I am for this 😃😀😀

Absolutely haunting images.
Oregon’s experiment to stem soaring rates of addiction and overdose deaths by decriminalizing small amounts of illicit drugs such as fentanyl is in its third year, and life has changed for most everyone in the city of Portland.

I thought this moment from the #uaphearing was slightly under-appreciated.
It's difficult to imagine what inter-dimensional manipulation might look like but I think Carl Sagan did a great job explaining it in one of my favorite YouTube videos: youtube.com/watch?v=UnURElCz…
I don't what it was...but when I heard there was a Nintendo Direct event happening, something in my mind was said, "Man, a Mario RPG remake would be amazing..." AND NOW IT'S HAPPENING. You're welcome 🙃 ign.com/articles/super-mario…

Some of my colleagues are hesitant to eat bread while covering events on Capitol Hill b/c they're concerned about the optics. Meanwhile, a Supreme Court justice accepts vacations worth $500k from political donors 🤷♂️
Clarence Thomas and the Billionaire propublica.org/article/clare…
Few have done more for the #psychedelic movement than Roland Griffiths and this conversation is a wonderful summary of his infectious appreciation for life. I had no idea that he had stage 4 cancer and it's unclear how much time he has left, but his legacy will always live on.
"There is a reason every day to celebrate that we’re alive, that we have another day to explore whatever this gift is of being conscious, of being aware, of being aware that we are aware." How a scientist learned to live with his Stage 4 cancer diagnosis.

Sorry my camera mic got in this shot @HamlinIsland!
Damar Hamlin currently speaking on the hill at the announcement of the #accesstoaeds act. The bill provides funding for AEDs, training in schools, and aims to prevent unnecessary deaths due to sudden cardiac arrest.
Just when I thought the world might succumb to darkness and fear...@TommyWiseau releases a trailer for his next project. Praise all that is holy. 🙏🙏🙏

Can we talk about this microphone please? 😂 It can't decide whether it's a lav or a handheld. Looks like "baby's first microphone," being held like this. Is this intentional? Do I know anything about modern video? Please help.

Here's what you need to know when filming on an AI-generated backdrop

The images this AI generates are pulled from REAL images that others have painstakingly pulled from their own imaginations. Is it fair? This feels a lot like sampling in music but now we’re seeing it in video. When will the lines be drawn and who will be doing the drawing?
Generate videos with nothing but words. If you can say it, now you can see it.

What’s most infuriating to me is that the vast amounts of “critics” have never even attempted to put something creative out into the world. They know nothing of the journey and the hardships that come from moving something from the realm of the imagination to the physical world.
“I think if most critics knew how much it hurts the people that made the things that they are writing about, they would second guess the way they write these things”
