We've just launched something very dear to my heart on the Guardian's home pages. Alongside 'Most viewed' we are now also showing 'Deeply read' - the pieces Guardian readers are spending time with.
It's interesting that people seem not to understand that a personal essay is not an advice manual nor a guide to an exemplary life. In fact the best ones are often just the opposite. The shame and messiness and darkness of being human is often where the literary material lies.
I love Google Maps but it would be truly unmatched if they developed a function that let you see the legislative district lines on top of all the cities and counties.

Hot take: People with poor writing skills are the ones who think Chat GPT can write well.
I get the motives behind it, but this infantilizing anti-intellectual stance taken on by grown women is ultimately misogynist. You’re not a bimbo or a girl; you are a grown woman, an adult of full moral and thought capacities, and you are called to the realities of your world.
I've been fact-checking on Twitter for years, and there's always plenty of misinformation during major events. But the deluge of false posts in the last two days, many boosted via Twitter Blue, is something else. Neither fact-checkers nor Community Notes can keep up with this.
@SarahGLehr Got it. Thank you very much for your response.

WPR is free in part thanks to private donations & I’m proud of that. But I’ll always be that person who defends newspaper paywalls. My first job was a locally-owned daily that was later forced to shut down. And I’ve seen so many friends & colleagues laid off from newspapers.
