Materialists this….Materialists that….the REAL movie of the summer is #KPOPDEMONHUNTERS on @netflix.com 😈 I spoke with the directors about their many influences & that bangerz soundtrack for @slate.com 👀

Thrilled to share a piece I co-created for @silver-nyc.com’s Winter 2025 Sonic Dash 🎧 “In Stitches” examines obstetric violence from the perspective of a birth doula. Listen wherever you get your podcasts!

“Publishing has known for decades that it keeps the lights on. I feel like we’re finally ready to let our golden goose out of the basement and let it come to dinner.” I'm a month late to this LitHub piece from @angejmazza.bsky.social, which I appreciated very much:

@angejmazza.bsky.social Reported On How Romance Novels Are Entering The Mainstream studyhall.xyz/angelina-maz...

"A new study uses satellite data to document environmental inequities in North Carolina." Uprooter @sarahashemi.bsky.social for @sentientmedia.org sentientmedia.org/factory-farm...

Angelina Mazza considers the romance novel’s mainstream moment: “Romance can do all those things, too, but its primary goal is pleasure and satisfaction and enjoyment. I think we struggle, as a culture, to see that as a valuable way to spend your time.” lithub.com/enemies-to-l...

I loooove bob’s burgers & the belcher crew. If u do too read this journo love letter then sink yourself into some animation magic ❣️

My first for Sentient: Air pollution linked to industrial hog farms in eastern North Carolina can be seen from space, with higher levels of toxic pollutants in Black, Hispanic and Indigenous communities.

My luv letter to Bob’s Burgers in THIS mag’s fall issue is now online! 💌🍔

I’ll be writing daily stories for @smithsonianmag.bsky.social’s Smart News section this month! Read my latest to learn more about the Santa Ana winds 💨

I'm at @theverge.com today talking about digital decay, link rot, watching my work slowly being erased from the internet, and how it makes me feel like I am fading away.

I absolutely love chatting with Angelina about writing, wonder, disgust, channeling the voice of a frog and why it's okay to publish essays when you're 20 😌

Truuuuly a privilege to interview Sabrina Imbler (@sabs.bsky.social) about their creative practice for @thecreativeindependent.com 🌀🌱

I think Defector is able to say obvious things more straightforwardly than anyone else, and this is me trying to do that. defector.com/the-purpose-...
