Grantland folded 10 years ago today. I'll never forget that morning.
I have a strange relationship with that time in my life. Sometimes, it feels like it all happened to a different person. But I'm so grateful to have been a part of that place. I know it’s the reason I'm here.

CBS went to a military food pantry (those words, in order) to interview moms. 13% of military families rely on SNAP/WIC. When a military spouse of a deployed soldier on enlisted salary was asked if people should be surprised: “No they shouldn’t. We live in poverty just like everybody else.”

When we think of disasters in the Gulf we often think of places like New Orleans and Houston...but the data shows how per-capita damages are often worst in smaller places like Refugio County, Texas ($92k damage per capita from 2005-2024) or Harrison County, Mississippi ($65k).
