@jameswread100 Yes, apologies for the mistake. It was an error we caught and corrected nearly instantly but news apps don’t always reflect updates, unfortunately. Hope you enjoyed the rest of the article, thanks for reading!
Shoutout to the @latimes reporters who are doing essential journalism under very difficult circumstances. Their ongoing coverage is a good reminder of why local newsrooms need support — and what we lose when those outlets are hollowed out. latimes.com/california/liv…
Even as a health writer, I found it scary & surprising just how much havoc scientists think #COVIDー19 can wreak in the body. Reminder that even if ur like me and have been lucky to have mild cases, any reinfection is a roll of the dice on #LongCovid: shorturl.at/ppemN
@camerokt_ @SELFmagazine @ttamkins So excited to have you on team SELF! ✨
Wrote about why the new COVID isolation guidelines de-prioritize public health, ignoring science to push the capitalist ideal of individualism over the collective. Unlike the CDC's guidance, my piece for @SELFmagazine is based on real research. self.com/story/cdc-new-…
@Jon__Zachary @BirdBrklyn Thank you!! I will investigate 😊
🏃♂️📰Join #theiij freelance webinar on sports and fitness journalism on Friday, Feb. 9 featuring Monique LeBrun of @runnersworld, @alisaa_hrustic of @SELFmagazine, @nabjprez2011 of @FOS and @cyu888. Register for free: theiij.com/webinars
A sapsucker hard at work. Only been birding for a year so I was delighted to spot him right outside my window! @BirdBrklyn (Took this on my phone through my binoculars.)
“This comeback was so much more than my return to elite gymnastics. It was me proving to myself that I can overcome hard things & to hopefully inspire others to never let life’s setbacks stop you from going after your dreams.” @sunisalee_ ✖️ @SELFmagazine self.com/story/suni-lee
Introducing @SELFmagazine’s October cover star, @sunisalee_. The Olympic gold medalist has emerged as one of the best gymnasts on the planet, but new health challenges have tested her physically and mentally.
@mackie_gavin @BirdBrklyn He was in the Vale of Cashmere area!
Unexpected sighting while birding today: Leucistic squirrel in Prospect Park. @BirdBrklyn
For @SELFmagazine, I wrote a FAQ about transgender kids in sports, answering many of the commonly asked questions I get every day. If you’re wondering about the science, logistics, or fairness, I've got you! self.com/story/trans-ki…
Andrew is the best. Go work with him!
👋🏻 Attention #freelance writers, especially folks who were affected by the recent media layoffs and are looking for a reliable, fun daily gig: I’m prioritizing a search for at least three contracted writers to join my news team within Hearst’s Enthusiast Group. Details in thread.
I wrote about why the fellas are dressing like Kramer now. theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
We’re excited to present our 2023 Healthy Beauty Awards! After two months of testing, we crowned 201 products as winners across categories including makeup, skincare, body care, and more. onself.co/WhjHPhj
I recently became a father. When @AmyRosary asked if I could write some thoughts about that, I was glad to have the space to explore some of the feelings (and fears) I’ve had, which turned into this piece for @SELFmagazine: self.com/story/new-fath…
