@Ernest has pushed an update which allows users to request ownership/moderation of abandoned magazines. Ghost/abandoned magazines were fairly prevalent after the initial wave of hype due to users either squatting magazine names or becoming inactive for other reasons.

Ahhh, I'm so disappointed, I've been working on @conservative for months, and really hoping to take it on,

Multiple sclerosis used to have the same problem and was seen as "hysterical paralysis".

Mr. Yong will share with us how he came to the subject of ME/CFS and long COVID and what has motivated him to dig so deeply and tenaciously into them. He will explain how he chooses sources to interview and how he prepares for those interviews. We will hear his thoughts on what is yet to be explored about ME/CFS from a journalistic perspective, and how science journalism contributes to changing perceptions. Mr. Yong’s presentation will be followed by an audience question and answer period.

Mr. Yong is a Pulitzer Prize-winning science journalist on staff at The Atlantic. In addition to his work for The Atlantic, Yong’s writing has been featured in National Geographic, The New Yorker, Wired, The New York Times, Nature, New Scientist and Scientific American. He is the author of two New York Times bestsellers—An Immense World, about the extraordinary sensory worlds of other animals; and I Contain Multitudes, about the amazing partnerships between animals and microbes.
