Earlier this year, Sarah Chihaya was diagnosed with MSA—a terminal neurodegenerative disease. Right now, she can no longer read or write—this will be her last piece. And it's a brilliant one about Emily Brontë and unknowability. thenation.com/article/cultur…

ICYMI: My great-great-grandfather was the namesake of an infamous institution for the disabled. From long-neglected records of the property, the lives of forgotten people were uncovered…. thenation.com/article/societ…

Everyone citing Janet Malcolm's The Journalist and the Murderer is thinking of the wrong Malcolm text re: "You Can See Everything." Real ones know it is The Impossible Profession that truly applies to Fielder's masterpiece.

This sounds so good
Exciting news: my dear friend @hamrahrama and I are teaming up to teach a two-day writing class in Brooklyn (and on zoom) and it’s kind of a bargain!

Hate to give them this kind of credit but this is the original color of a 19th century French chore
a pathetic attempt by the most morally bankrupt people living in san francisco to be liked by fashion's cool kids. i can almost SMELL the desperation to be seen as tasteful and fashionable. also, this color is atrocious on a chore coat
