#featurerequest for a future journalism job board: I want a running list of free agents and a spot to recommend them, or just vote them up.
Thanks for the smoke, Canada. There better be a big-ass slab of bacon coming our way.

“TWO ROADS DIVERGED IN A WOOD. I took the one that WASN’T ALL LAMESTREAM.” #stolenpalinpoetry
OMG FACEBOOK ONLY HAS A 5,000 FRIEND LIMIT! WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?!? http://j.mp/byoyNi
My mom, after I sent her a link: “Thank you darling daughter. And, thank you very much, Mr. Roboto, for doing the jobs nobody wants to.”
For @Poynter: ROFL - How Astro the dog, Scooby Doo and insufferable people say “awful.”
Whenever I hear someone brag about being a “straightshooter”, all I hear is, “I want people to praise me for being an asshole”.
OH at coffee shop: “Not gonna steal that. I already got a record, I won’t be jailed twice for grand theft.” Rest of the table: silence.

Trying something different
I abandoned my Tumblr long ago, but perhaps it’s time to try something different. I see Ben LaMothe has imported favorited tweets. May try that. Also may try to just reblog the interesting stuff I find around Tumblr.
