The amount of stoked I am to have images I made for @wired back in the fall appear in Wired Japan’s @wired_jp print edition does not match the poor quality of this video. Also, the design is beautiful!? The weight of the paper is choice!

Rainy day recollection from an assignment for CNN about Scott Janssen, a Chapel Hill-based hospice social worker who, over the course of his 33 year-long career, has encountered spiritual end-of-life experiences and deathbed visitations. All of this has led the former atheist-existentialist to embrace a new vision of life and what happens after.

Images I made in January for a ProPublica story about the election for a seat on the North Carolina Supreme Court—the only 2024 election in the U.S. yet to be finalized. I thought by the time I got around to posting these that the issue would have been resolved… alas.

There have been many turns, moves, decisions, and appeals along the way, but as it stands today (I think), the democrat and NC Supreme Court Justice Allison Riggs still leads Jefferson Griffin, a republican NC Court of Appeals Judge, by 734 votes. Since November, Griffin has been trying to get thrown out thousands of votes, most recently targeting “just” those of military service members and overseas voters (and, before, those of citizens residing in populous counties with a large number of black and brown residents).

These photos depict a community meeting in New Bern where concerned citizens gathered to learn about the situation and organize to fight it, a student-led effort at Duke University to encourage students to check whether their vote was being affected, and portraits of voters whose ballots Griffin was attempting to have disqualified.

If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
