Something very calculated & vague about this graf. Was he shoved down steps … by ICE? … in his childhood? Where was “the graze” from?: “But then, last night, I trip on the stairs – nothing in itself, I am clumsy. But something in me, as I fall, remembers being shoved down steps. I reach for the graze on my forehead, and weep for an hour like an old woman.” https://t.co/gm08wYZWAB

The Kennedy Center may be the “marble sarcophagus in which the art of architecture lies buried” (Ada Louis Huxtable), but it’s now so familiar I like it in an old-shoe kind of way. It has a nice patio. You know Trump will wind up tearing it down (or trying). https://t.co/8wfaIFnzp3

From a local Facebook group:

“I visited the Santa Monica Central Library after a while avoiding the place, and I was shocked by the state of it. It smells — literally — and it’s functioning as a shelter. Tables that used to sit near the windows are gone; now there’s just a cluster of tables pushed together where people sleep. I saw someone sleeping on the floor, others under their coats, everyone surrounded by suitcases and belongings. Librarias and security do nothing about it. Upstairs, there’s now a small “workspace” where you have to sign up and get assigned a table – meaning the people who actually want to read, study, or work are being funneled into a tiny room…”

It was a beautiful facility when it opened.

If like NYT you have a smooth-running operation that reliably churns out subscriber-pleasing anti-GOP heds then maybe, like an Open Claw, it doesn’t need much top-level supervision. Maybe CBS was like that, which could be why reporters seem to feel changing heds violates UN human rights protocols.

Why the hell not? Top editors often get involved in headline writing. One reason they call them editors. (You don’t want to know the editorial struggles over a 5 word cover line at Newsweek during the GHWB years.) 9-11 certainly seems a salient angle to the CBS piece.

“CBS’ El-Sayed Scandal”, on the other hand, is a BS hed. But they can put it on save-get and use it again.

“In recent years, American immigration advocates have argued that falling birthrates create a need for more immigrant labor. Those arguments are less convincing in the face of the accelerated automation that artificial intelligence appears ready to unleash.”

It doesn’t look like the problem is going to be too few Americans looking for work.
