This is painful, and saddening, and embarrassing. I feel like we're losing a member of the family - and for no good reason other than that some Americans wanted another season of the worst reality TV show in history.

this is infuriating, saddening, and incredibly well-reported by radley
New from me:
Elite law firms, multiple media outlets, the D.C. attorney general, and a group of parents accused a teacher of molesting 15 kids. They were wrong.
This piece is two-and-a-half years in the making. And as you'll see, it took some incredible turns, even as I was reporting it.

Mystery solved:
Analog, like Azimov's and F&SF, was recently acquired by a predatory acquisitions company called (cue the Irony Bell) "Must Read Magazines."
MRM is revising their "terms" so as to acquire as many IP rights as they can gank.
Fuck 'em. Boycott.

Some of us have screamed about Trump's corruption since 2015. It's profoundly saddening that it took many millions of us 10+ years to listen.

I’m saddened by the news of Senator Graham’s passing this morning. It comes as a real shock. I’m grateful I had the chance to work with Lindsey, including several international trips working on foreign policy. 1/2

For those unaware, Nick Floyd is the literal creator of the DanDan format. Finding out that WotC did not so much as reach out to him is saddening, to say the least.
I'm sure that the DanDan secret lair is an interesting project & I'm sure that the people who worked on it did a great job because, well, they're great at what they do but I am simply saddened by the lack of any involvement/acknowledgement of Nick Floyd (so far anyways)

It's profoundly saddening to read that AP will no longer be assigning or running book reviews because readers don't engage with them enough and they take too much effort to plan and assign. People complain about critics as gatekeepers; wait until all that's left is marketing.

The amount of people I know who have been laid off from games industry jobs and are deciding to leave games entirely as a result is not only extremely saddening (of course), but also genuinely scary. We have lost legitimately thousands of years of knowledge and experience in the last four years.
