This piece is extraordinary - so well reported and sensitively written, so illuminating, just an incredible, must-read for our MAHA times
A father wanted to vaccinate his children. Their mother didn’t. Then the kids got sick. The Scare newyorker.com/magazine/2026/…
i listened to the “dolly parton’s america” podcast the summer after my first miscarriage when i was taking long walks to clear my head and grieve. it was such a comforting listen. this my first time seeing this quote and it just made me sob. i love this perspective
Who wants to live in New York? Who wants the worry, the noise, the dirt, the heat? Who wants the garbage cans clanging in the street? Suddenly I do!
Boots Riley’s zany movies combine pop aesthetics with radical politics. newyorker.com/magazine/2026/…
My profile of the delightful Keri Russell, the darkly funny, surprisingly introverted former New Mickey Mouse Club member who—even after Felicity, The Americans and The Diplomat!—has never fully embraced the idea of herself as an actress: newyorker.com/magazine/2025/…
I had a blast pulling an all-nighter with Jesse Eisenberg and Meredith Scardino while they magically speed-wrote a musical: newyorker.com/magazine/2025/…
@D_W_Mault Don’t apologize, so many people have said the same thing! Up to and including major TV showrunners – it’s shocking how fully her legacy has faded
My essay about the brilliant, pioneering & shockingly forgotten showrunner-pioneer Gertrude Berg, who invented the family sitcom (pre-Lucy!), then got eaten by the blacklist in the 1950s — a story with disturbing modern parallels newyorker.com/magazine/2025/…
In 1951, Gertrude Berg, the creator behind “The Goldbergs,” won an Emmy and was poised to become one of TV’s greatest luminaries. Instead, just three years later, her life’s work was in peril. What happened? nyer.cm/1MM6ILV
@JenLouiseWilson @EyalPress .@emilynussbaum remembers Gertrude Berg, the first “showrunner” of any gender and a life-style influencer 50 years before Oprah or Martha Stewart, whose progressive sitcom became a victim of the McCarthy era. nyer.cm/gLFeTXG
If Bsky hasn’t tightened up moderation since then, they should! No one should get death threats, on any platform. My experience there has been that when I get trolled (or annoyed), I block. But that’s not even the issue here, which is partially about it being toxic, but centrally about supporting Musk
“Last Wednesday, as I watched Grok bring up white genocide in response to an anodyne query about the Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Max Scherzer’s career earnings, I couldn’t shake the question: Why are people still using this website?” theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
@SongBird3411 @drvolts My advice is to come over & bring other people with you, if you can. That might not be possible w baseball, but it’s def happened with TV and movies – I’m sure there are a lot of people still here, but there are really good conversations over there now, with smart posters
@EyalLampert @thefuzzybastard I mean, I still write for my magazine! I have a big essay coming out in two weeks. But the place I post the most is Bsky, bc it’s the place I have the most fun conversations
@thefuzzybastard Actually, maybe you can block — but either way, every time I visit, I see threats, porn, overt abuse, etc. That was always true, but Musk running the place makes it a no-go for me, on every level. People should make sure there are other ways for the world to get info
@thefuzzybastard I haven’t heard anything about death threats, but you can’t even block anyone here anymore, right? I like to know what people I hate are thinking too, but there are MANY resources for that, and no need to post here
@EvanHandler I’ll def read it! But it’s not gonna make me more comfy with Twitter
@EvanHandler I’m not happy about Meta, I keep my use diverse & post mostly on Bsky. But there’s a difference to me between a bad company & a government official directly responsible for destroying the civil service & seizing government data, in a hands-on way
The main thing I do think is that institutions, newspapers & politicians should 100% not only have Twitter accounts: they should double-post on ALL the other places, otherwise they’re cementing this site’s twisted monopoly over information. And we all know how well that’s gone!
I read Threads, too; I like Insta; I read Reddit. Clive loves Mastodon. I genuinely enjoy social media, but life got better when I wasn’t hanging out in a creepy sewer run by a malevolent dork. Just posting this bc in case you’re thinking of leaving, you can, there are options
