Since I’m in journalism I didn’t go home for the holidays early in my career; now I still don’t - I would rather visit when I don’t have to deal with the holiday stress and I love having Thanksgiving in New York
Actually in the spirit of this conversation, what’s a decision you made about a past Thanksgiving holiday that really paid off? I think people often feel trapped by their lives. Sharing our experiences can liberate us from that sense of claustrophobia.
On the most recent episode of VIBE CHECK, we answer listener questions about Thanksgiving, most importantly “do you go celebrate with the family members you don’t even like?”

If you like the NYT print puzzlemania section it will be in this Sunday’s paper (just in time to make your family help with the mega crossword)

I went to a great used bookstore the other day and they had an entire shelf of crossword dictionaries. I didn’t know such a thing existed! Phones really did ruin culture.

To paraphrase Todd Snider, I didn't know him as well as I tell everyone I did. But I stayed up last night trying to find the words for one of the most important humans and songwriters to ever pick up a guitar. Link is free

Wrote about Todd Snider, East Nashville and how the more things change, the more they change.

Something good comes along, then it’s gone: Farewell, Todd Snider.
When I moved to East Nashville in 2012, legend had it that if you wanted to find Todd Snider, all you had to do was go to Drifter’s BBQ in Five Points, and he’d be there at the bar. Nashville always h...

Remember that really dark time in history when they switched the green skittles in the US to green apple flavor I’m glad that’s over

Pretty fucking rude of the universe to let Todd Snider die if you ask me

Breaking News: Late last night Conde Nast illegally fired 4 union organizers who asked company execs to explain the downsizing of Teen Vogue and continued layoffs. We’ve filed a grievance.

Nothing but respect for my (vice) president ✊
More important to me than my identity, I am also the Vice President of the NewsGuild of New York, and targeting me with a blatantly retaliatory termination like this feels like an egregious shot against our union and against media workers as a whole.
