We’re not quite sure what we’re gonna do with ourselves now. Where are we supposed to go for quality journalism like this now?

• CNN’s Chris Cillizza tweets totally true in-flight story about what the maskless couple in front of him were watching
• CNN’s Chris Cillizza shines an important and not-at-all-desperate spotlight on ‘the whispers of Hillary Clinton 2024’
• CNN’s Chris Cillizza says that Marvel’s Wakanda could be a model for our future cities
