motherjones: shortformblog: New Orleans’ Times-Picayune cutting back on print editions, will focus on digital Major newspaper downsizes to three “more robust” issues per week: The New Orleans Times-Picayune, the largest newspaper in Louisiana, will downsize and stop publishing a print edition daily, moving many of their resources to online-only publishing and probably cutting jobs along the way. This isn’t the first time the paper’s gone digital-only. In 2005, Hurricane Katrina hit the city, forcing the paper to come out with a digital-only PDF for three days, because their printing presses were down. Eventually, the printing presses went back up, but the spirit of the paper never went down. Let’s hope for their community’s sake that these changes don’t strip the community of that spirit. (above, today’s cover, via Newseum) This is awful news. Take some time to go read their big investigation into Louisiana’s broken (to put it mildly) prison system. No, but for real, check that Mother Jones link. In related news: fuck the world. The Times-Pic means more to me than the NY Times, Dallas Morning News, and Austin Statesman combined.

azephirin: I’ve posted this before, but sadly it’s never irrelevant. soemily: Yo dudes, especially if your rights aren’t read, refuse to talk without your lawyer present. And after you’ve seen your lawyer once? DON’T START TALKING TO THE POLICE AFTER YOUR LAWYER LEAVES. Basic rule: at every single step of the process, no matter what’s happened previously, if you talk you waive your rights, even if you invoked them before. Always reblog (even if it is super late) View high resolution

So I read Konietzko’s tumblr and he made an offhand joke about “converting your household pets to Korra” and my immediate reaction was, “fool please, my dog’s a bigger fan of Korra than I am.”

It’s true. His favorite is Pabu and he has not yet missed an episode being aired, unlike me. He’s also highly suspicious of Tenzin, for whatever that’s worth.

This is the same dog that thinks dinosaurs on TV are legitimate threats to the continued health and safety of the universe.

What is my life.

TENZIN IS AMON IS SECRETLY A VELOCIRAPTOR WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS NOT A VALID INTERPRETATION MY DOG CAME UP WITH IT.
