Are you tired of clickbait and the current state of journalism? This community is meant to remind you that excellent journalism still happens. While not sticking to a specific topic, the focus will be on high-quality articles and discussion around their topics.

Politics is allowed, but should not be the main focus of the community.

Submissions should be articles of medium length or longer. As in, it should take you 5 minutes or more to read it. Article series’ would also qualify.

Please either submit an archive link, or include it in your summary.

Rules:

  1. Common Sense. Civility, etc.
  2. Server rules.

I have ME/CFS. I have it relatively mildly and it's still the worst thing that's ever happened to me. I used to get migraines once or more per week so bad that I would vomit and could do nothing but go to bed and try to sleep. I would rather go back to that.

I’m on the more severe side (bedridden, tubefed, unable to speak) but it’s nice to meet someone else with the disease too.

My condolences. Hope you find some relief.
