There are a lot of reasons to hate the NYT but right now my top one is that they’ve convinced me to defend Joe Biden and that really sucks

My niece started them around 8, and they were some of the first stories that really made her aware of death, leading to age-appropriate discussion with grown-ups.

I used to think Yoda was such a quitter at the end of Episode III, but if I'd been the best at my job for almost a millennium and then fucked up so badly that my entire profession is wiped out, I'd probably go hide in a swamp too.

When someone talks about whether you can separate someone from their work, I know the someone they’re talking about is a white man. Marginalized creators (including young women who are that man’s victims) are never allowed to have their work considered apart from their marginalization.

Every day proves Thaddeus Stevens right: there should've been big Nuremberg-style public trials of leading Confederates, accompanied by seizures of the assets of all pro-Confederate large landowners and businessmen, which should then have been distributed to freed slaves as compensation.
