This is not something yet widely known in Florida arts circles…thank you for sharing this.

Give that cat literally anything he wants. Tuna? Check. Snuggles? Absolutely. Nuclear launch codes? You got it, dude.

Pretty sure the data they’ll be getting will be payment enough.

Maybe someone needs to give the memo to these assholes, eh?

I no longer have the energy for additional sarcastic remarks regarding this vacuous tool’s culture-war-pageantry.

Don’t drown their perspective out because you want to convince them of yours.

I feel like news has the same problem that art does, in that organizations are always required to pander at least somewhat to their funding sources. If NYT didn’t have to get money from corporate sources and could instead truly be powered by the people, the optimist in me would like to believe that they wouldn’t have to publish articles like that…but maybe that’s naive. As someone who has actively worked in the arts, I know that many arts organizations are much more free with their words and frank in their critiques when they don’t have to bite the hand that feeds them.

So, all of that to say, please give to the news (…and arts) organizations that you feel most passionately about. NYT has done plenty of shitty things in their past, so maybe them, maybe not. But someone deserves to make money for their journalism.
