This will never ever get old 🥰

Well yeah

I’ve been avoiding getting new headshots for like eight years, but it’s time.

UPDATE: A tense, day-long standoff outside a South Burlington house ended Wednesday night with federal immigration agents removing three people inside and a series of violent clashes between police and hundreds of activists who tried to impede the apprehension. www.vermontpublic.org/local-news/2...

*taps internet microphone* After months of work, a project i've been coordinating for @literaryhub.bsky.social in conjunction with @maris.bsky.social is now live ... We've commissioned 13 reviews of books by LGBTQ folks not covered by the NYTBR under Pamela Paul ... lithub.com/what-was-los...

Another tough day for team “there’s no point in complaining about AI, just accept it.”

Within just a few hours of this morning's genocide warning from the Lemkin Institute, the 4th Circuit ruled that trans adults can have our care banned and be forced by any means to "appreciate our sex", and Iowa made it ILLEGAL to protect trans people. www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/p...

Anybody else feel like we’re due for a Sweeney Todd revival? I know I do.

NEWS: The Trump administration is forcing transgender inmates to detransition by implementing a new policy that would withhold their medical treatment in a way that puts clinicians in conflict with ethics and patients in danger. www.advocate.com/politics/nat...

NEW: Even the strongest anti-abortion advocates don't want to punish people for pregnancy loss. Police and prosecutors are finding ways to do it anyway. Here's what happens when miscarriage is recast as murder:

why is everything so shitty? why are people so weak and disappointing? why are so many men so gross? why haven't we abolished patriarchal societies?

I don’t really think of myself as a collector of odd things, but a while ago my cousin in nursing school said, “I wish I had an easier way to learn anatomy. Like, a coloring book.” And I was like welllllll…I have that.

NEW: We just published a deep dive into just how much billionaires are now dominating U.S. politics. We found 300 billionaire families accounted for 19% of federal donations in 2024. The deluge was even larger in many state and local races. 1/7 www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/u...

Nah, we’re not doing that. Birthday party rules only.

Hear me out: what if instead of war…paintball?

You know the economy is bad when scammers are trying to get emerging writers and authors. Baby, you got off at the wrong exit.

One of the most depressing things about the war in Iran is how a bunch of grown ass men are acting like this is a fucking video game.

Roxane has been a guiding light to so many, including me!--and I'd wager even for many who've never been lucky enough to meet her. (In fact it's only b/c of Roxane that I met Ashley--and I am so much the richer for that. ❤️)

Roxane does more for emerging writers, both publicly and behind the scenes, than anyone I’ve ever met. This piece, by one of my favorite writers and about one of my favorite writers (and also a mentor to me), is so lovely and real and true. Seeing RG get her flowers is a gift.

Growing up with a stunningly gorgeous little sister has been so wonderful. She humbles men so expertly, and honestly, I stan.

The Service95 team asked me to write about how amazing Roxane is (easy assignment) and I told them I’d do it for an autographed vinyl. www.service95.com/ashley-c-for...

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.

Huge NYT article on the back story of those two weeks in March/April 2025 when DOGE illegally terminated hundreds of NEH grants. Gift link!! www.nytimes.com/2026/03/07/a...

U.S. Sen. Katie Britt allowed Kristi Noem to dismiss whatever concerns she had about a 5-year-old boy detained by ICE. That looked terrible when this column ran Monday and it looks even worse now. Britt is trying to use a Trump whisperer strategy with an administration that treats her like a fool.

IRE calls for the immediate release of Estefany Rodríguez, a reporter for Nashville Noticias and Univision 42 Nashville, who was taken into custody while in a marked news vehicle, according to reports. Read the rest of our statement: https://bit.ly/4sto4Mh

BREAKING: DC Circuit, on a 2-1 vote, keeps in place a lower court order blocking DHS Sec. Noem’s effort to end Haiti temporary protected status designation. Judges Pan and Garcia deny DOJ’s request to stay the district court order. Judge Walker would have granted it. Haiti TPS is safe for now.

All I really want is a life full of side-quests.

Video of the March 2025 fatal shooting of American citizen Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims by federal officials that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over" another agent with his car.

By kidnapping bank employees and seizing a shipment of gold and cash, Viktor Orbán has resorted to acts of piracy against another European nation. www.wsj.com/world/europe...

Over 120 people have been hospitalized due to measles in Utah alone. "It is, at this time a real threat in our state and something we can do to stop it," said Dr. Leisha Nolen, state epidemiologist… pleading for people to get themselves and their children vaccinated.” @jackiantonovich.bsky.social

A few hours after NYT reported that the U.S. bombed an elementary school in Iran, killing many children, the White House last night posted this video mixing airstrike footage with Top Gun, Iron Man, Gladiator, Halo, Breaking Bad, Star Wars, John Wick, Superman, Transformers and Dragon Ball Z

Chase Infiniti is going to be great in the Lena Horne biopic in like 8 years.

BBC Verify has pieced together verified videos, satellite imagery and expert views after a deadly attack near a primary school in Minab, souther Iran, which suggest the area was hit more than once "by multiple simultaneous or near-simultaneous strikes". www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

FOIA offices are being decimated across federal agencies, leaving the government unable to fulfill public records requests. Don’t let this blatant attack on transparency fly under the radar. Tell your representatives to safeguard FOIA.

My body is trying to be sick, but I’m fighting back with water, soup, and the dark arts.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump says he's replacing Homeland Security Secretary Noem with GOP Sen. Markwayne Mullin.
