Investigative journalism is more than headlines.

It’s databases. Public documents. Painstakingly reviewing every item, every line. Late-night fact-checks.

And it’s possible because over 80k readers have stepped up to support it.

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.

While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts.

But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy.

In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states.

This is why unions are vital.

I'm trying to eat healthier foods (and save money) by cutting out fast food, restaurants generally and processed foods.

You wonder who the "4 servings" guide on a pint of ice cream is for? Me, that's who. I can be happy with just a bite now and then.

But I can kill a box of crackers solo.
