This is so beautiful. Only a person of @ashleyrparker.bsky.social's sparkling charm and fierce intelligence could write a tribute so layered; loving, honest, and funny. What a gift to the rest of us to get to see Bruce Jay Parker through her eyes: www.theatlantic.com/family/2026/...

What does it mean to be "in" the Epstein files? @tyrangiel.bsky.social sifted through 3.5 million pages to answer that question. Here's his taxonomy of grossness: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

There is a crazy NeeDoh shortage going on and if you have no idea what that means @olgakhazan.bsky.social can explain: www.theatlantic.com/family/2026/...

“Even in less dangerous times, the public would still have a right to answers about such an unprecedented purge of the senior U.S. military ranks.” @radiofreetom.bsky.social’s latest: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

NEW from @theatlantic.com: "Several people familiar with the White House’s plans told us there are active discussions about others leaving the administration, including Kash Patel, Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll, and Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer." www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

"Bondi was not uniquely skilled at destruction, just a willing cog in Trump’s machine. Eventually, the machine ground her up, too." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

This is smart: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Going to the moon is objectively awesome. Even when you don't land on it. I love this @rossandersen.bsky.social dispatch from the Artemis II launch: www.theatlantic.com/science/2026...

I will read everything Cullen Murphy writes, obviously, and this one is particularly lovely. Not to be missed: www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

This essay by the brilliant Laura Secor is really, really worth reading: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

It’s okay for hard things to be hard. On the subject of AI and writing, I like how George Saunders puts it.

Every self-respecting comedy nerd needs to read @geoffrbennett.bsky.social’s wonderful essay on “In Living Color.” So many great stories from that era. And in many ways an ode to Keenan Ivory Wayans: www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

“As with all decisions involving this president, the move was subject to being reversed until publicly announced.” This situation is absurd. Great reporting from @jonfischer.bsky.social and @ashleyrparker.bsky.social: www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

Driving by the Kennedy Center this morning and LOOK WHO I SAW

Everything Lily Meyer writes is so smart—this made me want to read Andrew Martin's new book. www.theatlantic.com/books/2026/0...

"For a while, he’d slept inside a Faraday cage, to protect him from static electricity... Today, to cope with intrusive thoughts about lightning, he dumps a packet of salt in his mouth because when you do that, he said, 'that’s all you can think about.'" www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

What do you have to do to get Trump’s phone number these days? A great story from @ashleyrparker.bsky.social and @michaelscherer.bsky.social about a ridiculous phenomenon: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

A smart piece by @jonfischer.bsky.social about what Ric Grenell’s departure from the Kennedy Center really means www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

David Sims always knows: www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

This is very funny. www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

This is worth reading, by @lilashroff.bsky.social: www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

Today's "drop everything and read this" is @mckaycoppins.bsky.social's latest. Just trust me on this: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Meanwhile, on the Big Island, it's raining football-sized chunks of rock, volcanic glass, and ash www.staradvertiser.com/2026/03/10/b...

Really worth reading @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social on what America learned from Signalgate. (The Musk detail in this story is particularly memorable.) And what better opportunity to re-up the best Signalgate meme (courtesy of @kampfmitkette.bsky.social)? www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

This is fascinating. @shaneharris.bsky.social's latest: www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

Now would be a good time to read @graemewood.bsky.social on Mojtaba Khamenei: www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

"Humans are question machines. AI is an answer machine." Charles Yu in The Atlantic: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

The Atlantic’s @michaelscherer.bsky.social just spoke with the president, who had this to say about Iran: “They could have made a deal. They should’ve done it sooner. They played too cute.” www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

Hello people of the internet! Hoping for some collective wisdom here: Who are your most-trusted meteorologists in Boston, New York, Philly, D.C.? I'm trying to understand this absurd snow situation.

"These facts cannot be changed; only how they are remembered can." @adamhsays.com's latest: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Dawson's Creek 4ever www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

This is the kind of essay you read and remember forever. Please make time for it. Elizabeth Bruenig is so talented: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Does Pam Bondi have any red lines? The attorney general doesn’t say no to Donald Trump, Stephanie McCrummen reported last month. Arguably, the future of the MAGA movement and the sanctity of the Constitution depend on what she’s willing to do next. theatln.tc/Y6rE8WIR

🚨NEW LEIBOVICH FEATURE ALERT🚨 I repeat, new story by @markleibovich.bsky.social! Time to read, everybody: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

This is really something. Excellent reporting from @anneapplebaum.bsky.social and @yvonnewingett.bsky.social: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Nobody can readily discern irony from sincerity anymore in San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and perhaps anywhere. As for The March for Billionaires? Well, you had to be there... www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

Only @tyrangiel.bsky.social could write about something so high-stakes and still make it this entertaining: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

No one does it like @petridishes.bsky.social: www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

In which @sallyjenx.bsky.social so beautifully captures want makes a great newsroom truly great. Here’s to all of the wildly dedicated people who—no matter the hour, the destination, or the danger—grab a notebook and run toward the action no matter what. www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

A smart, perceptive essay by the great Lily Meyer—on two American presidents, and two very different notions of the arts: www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

"We deserve so much better." Read @ashleyrparker.bsky.social on what it means to love a newspaper—both for the citizens who rely on it, and the people who make it. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Everybody listen to Walt. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Part of what makes @michaelpollan.bsky.social so compulsively readable is that he doesn't take himself too seriously. Here's his latest, new in The Atlantic: www.theatlantic.com/science/2026...

SCOOP from @nickmiroff.bsky.social: • Bovino demoted • "Kristi Noem and her close adviser Corey Lewandowski, who were Bovino’s biggest backers at DHS, are also at risk of losing their jobs" More here: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Tyler Austin Harper’s latest is very much worth reading: www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

“Recent events have brought Trump’s governing style into sharper focus. Fascist best describes it, and reluctance to use the term has now become perverse.” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

George Saunders is famously kind—but he’s also hilarious. I spoke with him about where his ideas come from, how he deploys humor in his work, and more. www.theatlantic.com/books/2026/0...

Must-read of the day: Stephanie McCrummens’s deep-dive profile of Pam Bondi www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Martin Luther King Jr.’s “Letter From Birmingham Jail” was first published in The Atlantic in August 1963. Today is a very good day to read it again. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...
