- Sondheim's reaction to being cast as Bradley Whitford (great tbh) is sending me
- A friend recently told me that she couldn’t figure out when exactly Beyoncé became “a fact. Like the Beatles.” This was my attempt to pin it down.
- I’ve been thinking about how clearly Susan Faludi’s work predicted this specific moment in feminism. I wrote about it here.
- this is a very careful, very nuanced profile. absolutely required reading if you, like me, imprinted on Buffy young. vulture.com/article/joss-w…
- It is an absolutely hilarious time to make this announcement, but: some personal news! I am now a senior correspondent at Vox. I'll continue to cover books, celebrities, and gender, but now with a fancier title.
- the old All Too Well was good because it's Taylor insisting on her dignity (it was real, I was there, I remember it), but the 10-minute version is better because it makes us privy to her humiliations first (you said if we had been closer in age maybe it would have been fine)
- HUGE NEWS: We’re launching a books newsletter. Next Page is going to come out once a month, with 3-4 book recommendations from me, plus some links and other fun stuff. Subscribe here: link.vox.com/join/6x9/optin…..
- truly believe the maid of honor dress was designed with this briefing in mind (it is not good unless it is supposed to be bad)
- Bizarre how SATC and Dawson’s Creek span the exact same years, yet SATC is a 2000s show and DC is a 90s show
- so full disclosure I did convince myself that the Karma theory is real while I researched this story.
- My father, Hugh Grady, died on Sunday night due to complications with acute leukemia. He was a warm and wise and wonderful father who taught me how to love poetry and beautiful things. Please keep him in your thoughts.
- I'm sort of fascinated by how much the Kate Middleton story is about Meghan and the quasi-rivalry, and how much that story in turn is about Diana. I went into the implications here
