Independent immigrant-serving news outlets are leaning on social media, chat and other nontraditional methods to fight disinformation, especially during ICE surges. Feautirng @lataco.bsky.social @documentedny.bsky.social & more. My latest for @us.theguardian.com:

When losing a job means losing a career: what comes next for laid off games journalists? aftermath.site/aftermath-game...

It's hella bleak out there. The freelance well has run so dry that over the summer, I became a California tax preparer, which means I'll be available for tax prep and consulting starting Nov. 1st. (New York is next). taxes.mallorycarra.com

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

too many guys are bad-weird now, we need more with this kind of good-weird energy

I managed a staff of 50+ volunteers at one of LA's biggest fall journalism events, and the only photos I took that day are of matcha. 😂

The fun of pursuing independent projects like @couchpotatocook.com (yes, that's also me) is trying new things; experimenting with newsletters, podcasting and actual play; and pursuing a bunch of my rejected pitches in the TTRPG space, food and beyond. And I really wanna play this!!

Should we play this on the podcast? 👀

imagine if somebody had told you a year ago that the knicks would open the 2026-27 season with a ring ceremony followed by a game against lebron james and the philadelphia seventy sixers

Y'all might think this is silly, but for this series, I just interviewed (and nerded out with!) a USC Annenberg professor who did a very comprehensive academic study on Hallmark movies. 👀 Coming soon.

We could actually really use some more support - it's been really slow lately and I'm getting a bit nervous. May try to throw together a more organized campaign in the next week or two, but for now I'd love it if you'd join or share.

Just a heads up: You can get both the COVID and flu shots (At the same time! On different arms!) in September and still come down with the dreaded viral illness making its way around campus in October.

I believe Lena Dunham has both the courage and the vision to add Che Diaz to the Girls reboot

Hundreds of protestors march from the site where an ICE agent shot a father in the Bronx on 10/8 to the hospital where he was being held. Defund and abolish ICE. Chinga la migra. 🧵 of photos...

Midway through my call with @nbedera.bsky.social, I was so shocked I asked: "How are you not incandescent with rage every day?" If you want to understand the Cornell case and why universities fail survivors, read this. You may become furious too. (Gift link.) www.thecut.com/article/trum...

At my @texastribune.org festival panel last week, I spoke about my miscarriage and how I considered not attending the festival when I thought I still pregnant bc of the state’s dangerous abortion laws. For journalists working under fascism, the things we cover are also personal. Audio clip here:

Bluesky is terrible for AAJA engagement (it's much better on IG, tbh), but guess what? Y'all will have another year of me posting about AAJA-LA because I got re-elected to the board, this time as VP of Career Development. Excited to continue serving! 🫡

She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

Some facts I keep thinking about as I teach at a university with an active Greek life: - 57 men were in that Cornell fraternity Snapchat group chat. No one helped. - 35% of Cornell undergraduate women reported having been sexually assaulted - Everything here: rainn.org/get-informed...

do men understand the extent to which women are ready to burn it all down right now

I wrote for @thecut.com about the Cornell case and what it says that, at my institution and many others like it, protesters are often punished more harshly than sexual assailants www.thecut.com/article/what...
