Thereās research to show that many opportunities come through what sociologists call āweak tiesā, people you know a little, recognize, FB friends. You know about all the things your close people know about. The next circle out is the best place to look, so science says you made a smart choice here.

I think of it like the difference between walking on a road and wading through a swamp. The more boggy, mucky, slow, difficult, confounded, foolish, and slothful the resistance can make itself, the faster it exhausts the facists and then less they can ruin in a day.

6ish years ago Elaine Welteroth became the EIC over there and expanded the mandate from being a fashion magazine for teen girls to a teen magazine, with plenty of fashion, then filled all that space with smart interesting work about politics, culture, and other things also of interest to teen girls.

Sometimes thatās how it goes, though? I had a one night stand that turned into a conference fling and six weeks later I moved to Canada for the summer to see about this cute guy with all the big ideas. That was 18 years (and 3 kids and 11 books between us) ago this spring, so.
