I saw Wallace Shawn this weekend in Chelsea. He was hailing a taxi mid-block, inexplicably wearing a single rubber blue glove (?!). Anyway, a superfan jaywalked over to say hello and exchange pleasantries. As the superfan left, not at the crosswalk, Wallace called after him, sweetly, "be careful!"

We actually did this through the legislature in Michigan with the GOP House because Republicans were (I estimate) finding it very hard to explain why they would steal food from kids.

Teen Vogue was one of the only outlets that took young people seriously as political actors and covered how they're organizing, voting, and being impacted by state + national legislation.
It was a launching pad for so many great young journalists
