Montana born, eventually Las Vegas raised. That transition was a trip. I’ll be coming back in the near future to be with these two. In the meantime I’ll keep working because someone’s got to buy the dog food.

The other day I bitched that people always forget LaMonica McIver in their list of politicized prosecutions.
The New Yorker has a profile here, so hopefully we can change that.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Terrific story about Rob Reiner being as much of a mensch in real life as he seemed.
I’m just going to tell the story. Back in 2000 I was volunteering for the Gore campaign when he came along with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Alfre Woodard and Dule Hill to a GOTV event here in MN. He ended up sitting down across from me stuffing his envelopes.

All our lives would have been much more difficult without the support we received and I know that we’ve been lucky. It shouldn’t have to come down to luck - as a society we can afford to help each other. It’s just that an awful lot of rich and powerful people don’t believe we should.

The Wellington Sea Shanty Society (a band rather than a society, ironically) did an album in collaboration with a group of French shanty singers where they do bilingual shanties. It's really cool!

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures
It was announced on October 16, 2025 that VIBE was "joining forces" with Rolling Stone. As a result, the majority of VIBE employees were laid off. If you have the means to give, this team could use the support! www.gofundme.com/f/support-vi...

At the end of every year, I like to give myself the gift of writing a beautifully, perfectly stupid story. Bonus points if it has absolutely nothing to do with my beat. Things have been so bad this year that Christmas has come early lol

If you don’t know Lina Khan, now is a great time to know about her. She’s now on Zohran Mamdani’s transition team. She’s also the former FTC Chair, only 36, & committed to leveling the playing field for everyday Americans. She is an absolute star. This is what hope feels like.

Don't have quite the right words but devastated for the brilliant people who made Teen Vogue what it was, selfishly devastated as a freelancer and columnist, and devastated for readers, who deserve the kind of work Teen Vogue published.

Take a break from whatever you are scrolling through and read this review. He did not exaggerate. It is superbly charming.
Sharing this again because an actual child read a book I wrote for children and wrote a whole review about it that is just so ridiculously charming that you should read it regardless of whether you have any interest in the book
