We just found out the Texas Observer is shutting down this week. Unfortunately, we found out via our friends at @texastribune.

It's been an absolute pleasure interacting with everyone in the Fediverse as the Texas Observer, and we'll miss you.

Oh, fuck... - I only discovered your publication recently, via Mastodon, and now you're shutting down. Very sad.
