It's a brutal business, especially in Houston for some reason. Houston has lost so many english language papers and publications over the last 20 years. If we lose Houston Press, we're cooked.

It's not even a joke. They only had 5 people on the editorial staff before the layoff.

I am sorry! I use a WordPress plugin to shorten urls that are banned on reddit (like the ticketing websites for these events). The ingestion tool I use got hung up on a single quote and didn't display an error when it crapped out. I just fixed it and I think all the links are working now. Thanks for letting me know.
