There’s a lot of bullshit happening right now, and I can tell you from experience the best way to not fall into a pit of despair is by doing something.

I truly think a big step in repairing this country after this mess will require constitutional amendments.

Finally ratify the ERA
Eliminate the electoral college
Supreme Court term limits. (I am anti legislative term limits)

We also need a Congress that reasserts its Article 1 powers.

I purchased something off eBay that was shipped from New Jersey. It has now been to Brooklyn…down to North Carolina for 3 days, and now to Newburgh, New York.

I do not understand the USPS

I’m beginning to think doing hard drugs would be less absurd than the published takes these days

I'm going to start calling essays like this "odes to whiteness" because the underlying premise is that they are like this because they don't anticipate any social cost to smelling bad.

This one is v. frustrating because it tries to lump in perfumes with the broader (problematic) beauty industry

I’m turning 50 next year. I rarely wear deodorant anymore. Many women I know have stopped, too. We don’t talk about it, but I catch it in the air — a faint musk of onion, goat, curry, mustard, salt, sage, fennel, ozone, and the muddy wet marrow of the earth itself. I’m kind of obsessed with this collective stink: the animal symphony of skin, of women being women, punk and unfiltered, taking up space with their scent. Raw, unapologetic BO. The more I live among it, the more I see it not as a hygiene failure but as a radical act of self-acceptance. It’s not polite, but it’s honest — and that feels hot. Hotter, even, than anything a Guess ad ever promised.

I always feel old when I say I miss the days when pitchers had an Arsenal, and that location mattered.

The battle of changing eye level and pitch selection.

"Greg Maddux topped out at 87 and was the best pitcher in baseball."

Mamdani: I run against a disgraced former governor who, in this moment, has chosen to issue a statement in which he cannot even say the name Tish James, nor the name Donald Trump.

If you cannot say Trump’s name today—how will you stand up to him tomorrow?

“Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”
