Sending out freelance pitches is like "hey, would love to be considered here's something I wrote in 2016"
If you look at what's happened to books and records, it's a little weird that news outlets have decided the death of print newspapers is inevitable.
Going beyond accommodations and ending neurodiversity and disability discrimination require a systemic revision of all aspects of employment. mitsmr.com/3VkHJAT
Writing about my vision loss has lead to a lot of work in TV and journalism. I wanted to pay it forward. With @sharedbylines I’ve put together a scholarship for blind/visually impaired journalists. The scholarship is for three grand. Apply below. sharedbylines.com/david-brown-sc…
“A thousand stories you’ll never read, and a shrinking number of publications with the resources and guts to confront power” sounds about right. Here’s @maxwelltani on how news began to pull its punches semafor.com/article/03/17/…
This is excellent and a fantastic example of what you can do with Notion (also one of my all-time fav work/life tools). Thank you, @jessicakmathews!

It’s enough to just say, “I make my work this way because it’s what i want to see more of in the world.” No further diagnosis or justification is necessary.
The internet isn't eternal; in fact, journalists live in fear of not only losing their jobs, but also losing access to their work. For @Slate, I wrote about what happens when digital news sites are disappeared—and why it never needs to be this way. slate.com/business/2024/…
Love this quote from Marilynne Robinson from the recent @nytimes interview:
“I suspect that reading fiction is one of the few remaining paths to transcendence, that elusive state in which the distance between the self and the universe shrinks,” Ceridwen Dovey writes. nyer.cm/M795WJe
am thinking very seriously about this at the moment, and obviously there are no guarantees, but i suspect the main thing is approaching it with a mind toward actual value

bring back physical media!!!!!!
with the vice rumors sending a new batch of journalists scrambling to archive more than a decade's worth of work, i've been thinking a lot about link rot and the insidious ephemerality of digital media the internet is forever, except when it’s not, and that's kind of terrifying
"I need your love" "I need that job" Rejection hurts Here's how to live through it:
Deeply appreciate this evergreen PSA by @areesesantafe. Living with invisible disabilities myself, I‘ve certainly gone through periods when I desperately needed some of the accommodations outlined here & only sometimes got them. But I always regretted it more when I didn’t ask …

Blistering @sorayaroberts piece in @TheLocal_TO on rich execs, flailing cultural institutions, and what happens when a country doesn't take art seriously. thelocal.to/hot-docs-canad…
I will not apologize for loving a media succession story. Just wish there were more publications still around where this mattered. This could be the last one.
New in tonight’s @semafor media newsletter: Every year, David Remnick puts together a list of who could replace him as editor of the New Yorker. I wrote about who might be on that list semafor.com/article/04/28/…
New publication alert! I launched a space on Medium called "De Minimis," which is a Latin expression that means too trivial for consideration, as a home for rejected stories. Please follow, share & consider contributing when this hopefully picks up steam! medium.com/de-minimis
Honestly the world is terrible and life is short so you should just probably write whatever fuck kind of book you want to write.
This whole thing taught me to never give up on something I believe in, but also that if something isn't working, there may be the simplest reason why. You just have to look at the piece from a different lens.
Seeing your kids grow up makes you realize things about yourself that only now make sense. For example, one thing that's consistent among my boys is they do not seem physically natural or at ease in the world. Things other children do without hesitation never seem to occur to…
And seriously, if I’m struggling like this amid once in a career type success, how many people are giving up right now?
Come work with me! @TorontoStar is looking for a real estate reporter! One year contract! Details, jobs.smartrecruiters.com/Torstar/743999…?
ADHD isn’t an excuse, it’s an explanation.
Reading fiction has small but meaningful benefits for empathy. 70 experiments: concern for and understanding of others grow more through reading novels than watching shows and movies. Immersion in words about imaginary worlds can help us see realities beyond our own.
Kudos to the GTA for being Keith Lee's top 3 food cities. Hopefully diners will continue to support these places long after the KL Effect. thestar.com/life/food-and-…
Let's put therapists out of business!
Feeling really proud this morning of the launch of @TheLocal_TO 's new Art + Money issue, starting with thoughtful pieces by @nickhunebrown and Tamara Jones, and brilliant art by @michael_deforge. Much more to come! thelocal.to/spring-2024/
Last week, I published my piece on how childhood adversity shapes our lives. pudding.cool/2024/03/teenag… One fun detail: The survey asks about height and weight over 20-some years. So I visualized that in the size of the animated people.
thrilled to share that today @latimes wellness is launching SHELF HELP, a new column where we interview researchers, thinkers, and writers about how to live a more complete life latimes.com/lifestyle/stor…
Open-ended tasks (i.e. finding a new job) can stay incomplete for long periods, and can feel like a burden. So, a list of easy-to-complete tasks (i.e. cleaning a room or calling a friend) can feel harder to do if we have an open-ended task on it. Keep those lists separate.
Has anyone done any research why plenty of #ActuallyAutistic people wind up marying #ADHD people? Because I can name multiple such couples.
An exciting freelance win: after several pitches to numerous editors, one of my pitches on disability and employment was finally accepted by the @globeandmail! I know this is a quite not so humble brag but I am delightfully surprised.
But then it shifted something within me, I was forced to self advocate for ME! Most of my life I fawned & became who other people wanted me to be. I ignored my own needs. This experience taught me to acknowledge & honour my needs.
I say this all the time, but it bears repeating: Please don't send your unedited first drafts out to the world. The world can wait. The world wants you to wait! Unfortunately, someone may publish it, and that mess will be associated with your name forever.
