Yes on all this & I deeply appreciate you naming all of it. But I hope to assist other journalists in doing similar projects in their states. Grateful to FIJ for supporting & AL Reflector for supporting & publishing!
Thanks so much! 🙏🏻

Time to declutter the garage after sustaining gash on leg by walking into a sled that doubles as storage for unused chandeliers.
Just watched 2 men argue in grocery line about who was there first. Turned & locked eyes with woman behind me. Ridiculous, she whispered. I nodded & rolled my eyes. The men kept arguing. “Women should be running the world,” she said out loud. The men got quiet. We bumped fists. If you know you know.
Was there anyone as boring as Elon Musk? Name someone more boring. Will wait.
I’m here & trying to migrate the 30k Twitter followers I worked hard to build, but a part of me is strongly considering blowing up all my socials & going analog. Isn’t all of this fucking silly as hell? We all need to go outside. Twitter, threads, substack, bluesky. It’s exhausting.
Prison officials prefer to execute compliant men bc it allows them to pretend this is justice. When final words hurt their feelings, they clutch pearls & deny that last moment of truth. Cowards.

So..... I live here. So do lots of other people who care deeply, push back against oppression and speak truth to power. Jefferson County, where I live, is completely blue. So is the black belt part of the state. Leadership here sucks, but many people are the best resistors America has ever had.
Some thoughts on Alabama naming its new mega-prison after Gov. Kay Ivey. I write a substack called Moth to Flame at the intersection of justice, injustice and life in Alabama.

So good to know!
Wow, in tech gadget life, that's an eternity!
My 2-year old Versa 2 fitbit is officially dead. All troubleshooting failed. Seems like a short life for such a pricey gadget. Should I switch to Apple Watch? What say y'all?
NO. THANK. YOU.
Godspeed to all the local news anchors who have to read the current events with a straight face. I felt like my face would peel off in 2016. Cannot imagine what it's like now. 100% sure I'd flip TF out.
“It has not been possible, until recently, to fully appreciate the full extent to which the foundation of this conviction has disintegrated," wrote Jefferson County DA Danny Carr, about Toforest Johnson's conviction. His attorneys are seeking a new hearing.

Mom’s boyfriend introduced her to what is quite possibly the worst food product ever made. His version was called “date loaf.” 😱😱😱😱😱
Prescient beyond decades. Elvis was so far ahead of his time.

Working on the most complicated reporting assignment of my life and it feels like I'm having to crowbar every sentence out of my skull. Can anyone relate?
WHAT THE FUCK
Fasting
I am very blessed. 🙏🏻
I write a lot about prisons & mass incarceration, but also post doggie pics. It’s a nice balance. This is my girl, Bernadette. She has 3 legs & is queen of the house.
Thank you Jacob!
