I wrote for the NYT so my mom bought a subscription. Other publications looking to increase their quarterly numbers…you know what to do.

Before writing this I had no eclipse plans and then when reporting this out was told many times how lame that was and now I'm gonna go to the path of totality, baby! So I hope this article helps you not only avoid burning your lil eyes but inspires you too:scientificamerican.com/article/eclips…

Here's my latest! It's inspired by me wondering—as soon as the heat kicks on in my apartment—am I getting SICK sick or is my environment making me feel sick? For some us, it turns out we can be a little less paranoid about infections and open up a few windows.

100% yes. Another go to is at the end of the interview ask “is it fair to say that” and then summarize what you think your source said to make sure you actually got it.

In 2023 I wrote some articles I'm proud of, branched into radio, edited, and hustled. The second year of freelancing was definitely more challenging than the first. I spent more time thinking about who I am beyond work. I got married. I visited home more often.

the fact that publications are divesting in science journalism at a time when science journalism has never been more important makes me real queasy

read Yasmin Tayag because she's funny and clear and all that voice comes through the writing BUT also because she's asking the right questions! there shouldn't be so many gaps in knowledge when it comes to pregnancy theatlantic.com/health/archive…

while it's nice to see this type of tracking, the color choices here are interesting when you consider blues and greens are typically associated with calmness, trust, tranquility etc
