I love my friends and books and am a nerd for languages and their history. Also movies, photography, sports and Billie the Cat.

Finde sehr interessant, was die UN-Vertreterin sagt, dass es auch darum gehe, die Politik davon zu überzeugen, den Menschen sei Klimapolitik nicht wichtig. Das ist exakt das Narrativ, das wir seit Monaten in Deutschland sehen - auch in seriösen Medien. Und aus meiner Sicht schlägt es sich nieder.

I read some excellent books in October. Sally Carson's CROOKED CROSS, Russell Hoban’s TURTLE DIARY, and Haldór Laxness's INDEPENDENT PEOPLE were the month's highlights. New post here:

Back at the Michael Werner Gallery in Mayfair today for another look at the POSTURES: JEAN RHYS IN THE MODERN WORLD exhibition, which includes various artworks in conversation with Rhys’ books.

Some interesting Brontë content here, for fans of their work! (Artworks by Celia Paul.) #art #BookSky 💙📚

To a large extent, @teenvogue.com's Politics section was doing the only dedicated progressive reporting on American higher education. While higher ed issues sometimes receive coverage in places like The Nation & The American Prospect, Teen Vogue treated campuses like a dedicated beat.

It is very clear the gutting of Teen Vogue is about silencing their excellent political coverage. Corporations want you uninformed and shut off from meaningful journalism. And they’re staggeringly successful at it so far.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Barbados, China, Delhi, Rio, Paris – ich war letzte Woche in einem Briefing mit Klimaschützer:innen aus aller Welt. Teilweise aus heftigst betroffenen Regionen, die wegen der Erderwärmung gekniffen sind. Was Sie gemeinsam haben: Unbändigen Willen etwas zu ändern.

My latest for @nytimes.com! For 40 years, paleontologists have grappled over whether a small tyrannosaur — named Nanotyrannus — was its own animal, or simply a teenage T.rex. The debate has been ... contentious. Which is why it's so fun to finally be able to say this:

Folks? Nanotyrannus is real.
