“In the Who Cares Era, the most radical thing you can do is care.” YES @dansinker.com

Oh good now I definitely keep avoiding a book I was already planning to avoid

Happy book birthday to @mollyjongfast.bsky.social. Audio version was waiting for me when I got up; I managed to listen to almost an hour, but I have to go to work now.

Extremely funny to have my book cited in the paper’s review of Sam Tanenhaus’s BUCKLEY, which is out today:

Hurricane Brawndo, it’s got electrolytes

The heartbreaking statement from Jonathan Joss’s husband about his death.

Profiles of fascists are like the cultural obsession with serial killers: boring, ugly, pointless, and detract from the actual people who matter.

Truly the end of an era.

I started strength training several years ago after two very bad stair falls. So yeah, bannisters rule

Whenever this piece runs the first person I want to hear from is the fact-checker.

Memoir really is the toughest genre to write (which is why I won’t, or at least not until I am very old) but I’m so glad @mollyjongfast.bsky.social wrote hers.

You know what, let me post about some recent books I dug: - THIS IS HOW YOU LOSE THE TIME WAR - MICE 61 by Stacey Levine (singular! Deranged! I loved it) - SKY DADDY by Kate Folk (if JG Ballard had written Moby-Dick) - MY PISCES HEART by Jennifer Neal (amazing memoir/history/reportage hybrid)

We will be reading and laughing and drinking while also supporting the Iowa Abortion Access Fund… You don’t wanna miss this. @lyz.bsky.social @alisonleiby.bsky.social @ellomelissa.bsky.social @felipetmedina.bsky.social @taylorkayphillips.bsky.social www.eventbrite.com/e/red-state-...

Omg

This is excellent reading of what sounds like a total nightmare of a day.

NEW: Megan Twohey and I went deep on Elon Musk’s intense drug use as he rose to political power alongside Trump last year. He was using so much ketamine that he told people it was affecting his bladder. At SpaceX, he is getting warnings ahead of drug tests www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...
