![BREAKING NEWS CONSUMER'S HANDBOOK
1. In the immediate aftermath, news outlets will get it wrong.
2. Don't trust anonymous sources.
3. Don't trust stories that cite another news outlet as the source of the information.
4. There's almost never a second shooter.
5. Pay attention to the language the media uses.
• "We are getting reports".
". could mean anything.
• "We are seeking confirmation".. means they don't have it.
• "[News outlet] has learned". means it has a scoop or is going out on limb.
6. Look for news outlets close to the incident.
7. Compare multiple sources.
8. Big news brings out the fakers. And photoshoppers.
9. Beware reflexive retweeting. Some of this is on you.

Time Magazine person of the year is a bunch of ai slop peddlers. I've got a very specific beef with how this trash billionaire mouthpiece rag is stealing the valor of real American heroes to promote these rapacious techbro douchebags.

Hookland is a deliberate re-wilding of folklore, but it is also an act of reminding people that you only have to scratch in the right places to reveal yourself as an animist, a knower of scarelore and someone whose immunity to the strange is a lot less complete than imagined.

Taking a moment to acknowledge that today marks 50 years since Brisbane/meanjin’s original community radio station @4zzzradio.bsky.social began broadcasting from studios at UQ’s St Lucia campus. Brisbane’s thriving music scene and independent news landscape (and my youth) owe a lot to the Zeds 🖤

This is your occasional reminder that, if you like Neil Gaiman's stuff, but can't bring yourself to like it anymore for justifiable reasons, Tanith Lee is the author he is credibly accused of extensively cribbing from, and her work is on Audible, and AMAZING.
