I have to get this off my chest: ANGELA WAS THE BOSS She was literally the boss. Tony was her employee. It's not up for debate!!!

I don’t post much here anymore but earlier this week I read this piece, published in 1995, months before Rabin was murdered, and I’ve been unable to stop thinking about it: bostonreview.net/articles/last-…

Some news: After 8 years & 750 stories, I've decided to leave The Atlantic. Today's my last day. Being a writer means you can’t say things like "I can’t tell you what this means" cos, well, I can. That's kind of the point of me. So here’s an attempt at looking back & forward: 1/

OH HEY it's a sound-rich political story filled with surprising & delightful moments (with production from Weekend Edition's own @dannyhensel) npr.org/2023/06/17/118…

My pal of 20 years (!), political reporter extraordinaire and all around delightful human @DonGonyea is hosting Weekend Edition this morning and it's making my heart sing

@dparvaz @wirecutter FWIW I bought the Natoris they recommended and have had zero regrets

@wirecutter isn't getting those pitches. Its newsletter today starts with: "A bad pair of underwear can ruin your day. It can pinch, bunch, tug, and end up in all the wrong places." How do I get on that mailing list, where the worst thing that can happen to person is a wedgie?

I know I'm very lucky to have this job. I wonder, tho, if I can stop the deluge of books being pitched to me about depression, anxiety, self-harm, grief, loss, heartbreak, divorce, death, illness.... Are there no happy books about kittens? Fluffy clouds? Good times, noodle salad?

Majestique

@DGJourno ugh I'm sorry Denise 😔

When I think of the great Wade Goodwyn, who died today, this is the first story that comes to mind. The first track is hall of fame writing and top of Mount Olympus delivery. He was TRULY one of a kind. npr.org/2013/07/03/198…

@lilkat_bigworld NO ONE ELSE on earth could (or would even try to) write this paragraph into a script, get it through the edit, and then read it into a microphone - and totally pull it off!!!

please laugh

@binarybits don’t drink anything you don’t pour yourself

“Who are you poisoning?” “EVERYBODY. Then we’ll have the whole world to ourselves. And we’ll have technology in the kitchen AND the dining room!!”

“Bye, Alice! I hope the poison works!!” - an unsettling playdate farewell
