The latest drought monitor across Texas shows D4 exceptional drought centered right over Kerrville, Fredericksburg, Comfort, Blanco and Boerne. Also a zone north of Austin that just showed up this week.

Looking forward to #ona23 this week in Philadelphia. Honored to be part of the “Transforming Local Journalism” panel sponsored by Microsoft at 1 pm Wednesday. Hoping I’ll see lots of old friends and make some new ones.

I grew up with Mac and Borg, who never hit double digits for slams. Then came Pistol Pete, then Fed (who remains my fave). But this type of consistency for championships is amazing. I read his book and admire the guy. Congrats, Djoker. Amazing!

Gillespie County is considering a similar silly proposal. All due to unfounded, unproven election count conspiracies in which the winning side - the same ones claiming fraud - received more than 75% of the vote! Insulting to election workers and county officials.

A tiny, feel-good change, but the Twitter control panel browser extension reverted the look to Twitter and brought back headlines. App is still its dark self….

I listened to this while cooking last night. It illustrates some of the big challenges for local news. Even those of us doing better face big challenges in continuing the same level of service. Extra, extra: How to solve the local news crisis youtube.com/live/n9onxOvsA…
