@Joeybagovdonuts 220. 221. Whatever it takes
@mlancia As a former P-Ger who watches the bylines, here's my analysis: Most of the sports desk crossed the picket lines. Most of the news desk and copy/web desks walked off. The business desk split. Of those who walked, a meaningful minority have ended up at the Trib or elsewhere.

@richlord I’m surprised to see higher profile PG reporters still writing for the paper. I thought the reporters were one of the unions on strike. Even if they aren’t, I’m surprised that they don’t seem to be getting much blowback.
"Toxic Troll" is a pretty good name for the villain. But a smarter Ai would have named him "Tom Brady".
MISTER ROGERS: NEIGHBORHOOD HERO
I asked ChatGPT to "write me a screenplay about mister rogers as a superhero who saves the city of pittsburgh from an evil menace" and this is what I got 10 seconds later. Pitching it to Netflix next week.
