Kaela is an extraordinarily thoughtful, sensitive reporter who has done phenomenal work on housing and homelessness in DC. She'll be an asset to whatever newsroom she joins next. (Yours, maybe???)

Truly nothing in the world QUITE like Nextdoor comments the day after a new bike lane goes in

great piece on the havoc a Bitcoin mining firm is wreaking - on both neighbors & the environment - in Western New York. And of course, state & local agencies have lined up to hand out subsidies for these jobs of the future.” Via Caitlin Dewey buffalonews.com/news/local/nor…

really nice mention in Caitlin Dewey's newsletter "Links I Would Gchat You If We Were Friends" linksiwouldgchatyou.substack.com/p/group-chats-…
