Just about 11 years after I started writing it, PLANES is out today!
According to the New York Times it "captures our shared human ache with stunning accuracy." 🫠

if you don't know what 'prosciutto money' is ... I'm sorry, you're already lost.

You can also work the other end. Like maybe the idea you pitched didn't really work out. But still, at $14/w (my average), if you just file a paragraph or two then you'll still make some prosciutto money.

my one tip for the “how can young writers make more money?” discourse is to note that editors will often pay a bonus if you go long. So like, my Gawker contract was $8/word, but I’d often file 2–3 times as many words as initially agreed upon, and they’d bump me up to $10/word

Smart piece by @apcbapcb on our era of "blank space" conspiracy theories, in which the lack of evidence is the evidence nytimes.com/2026/03/04/mag…

Poetically shitty AI-written recap of my piece
Nordic AI Institute@nordicinst
The Guardian: Cheating machine or mighty aid? My trainee-teacher nerves crash when AI wanders into class—free chats craft prose, but can they shape thinking or simply caffeinate panic? Europe’s AI rush meets Swedish classrooms: who guides the handwriting… theguardian.com/education/ng-i…

I was a newcomer, negotiating all of usual classroom difficulties for the first time. Throwing AI into the mix felt like downing a coffee in the middle of a panic attack

omg they spelled "COMMUNIST MANIFESTO" wrong on the new Sally Rooney cover

I am on the brink of opposing the term 'The Epstein Files.' It makes it sound like there's a box somewhere and they're all in it. Or a big filing cabinet. Or thumb drive or whatever. And in some way this is peak aesthetic liberalism. Similar slip to 'the Epstein client list.'

Can't quite tell if this was written by AI, or by an AI propagandist. Piece is not about "innovation," it's about "fascist spectacles."
