@ELpork asked:

Wondering where you get your news from? Used to get it from Twitter when reporters were there, then from Reddit, but everything seems so. IDK, crap? Should I just stick to a local reports?

I also don't have a great answer for this these days. Cobbling things together, searching for stuff when I see it bubble up. Curious what others are reading, though.

I'm subscribed to a local newspaper, haaretz for Jewish news, and the New Yorker for like culture and whatnot. I realized that I don't have to keep track of everything so instead of using aggregators I just signed up directly to news sites for things that do matter. It's been really good for my mental health

i’ve been signing up for email newsletters from a handful of smaller sites - the Intercept, 404 Media, Hell Gate, and then getting world news piecemeal. the system needs some refinement
