  1. #GloriaSteinem, a #feminist icon, died yesterday. RIP. Here's a gift article for her obituary in The Atlantic magazine. I'll leave you with an instructive quote from the article about how girl culture is an insidious force controlling women's lives to their detriment, something Steinem herself was well aware of.

    Needing approval, [Steinem] wrote, “is a female cultural disease, and often a sign of doing the wrong thing.”

  2. CN #Ukraine

    Über die Operation M&Ms berichtete #TheAtlantic vor 2 Wochen

    Es war unklar, ob diese Aktion seit #Federovs Entlassung weiterverfolgt wurde. Die Risiken und der Sinn stehen im Text. Ethisch nicht ungefährlich.

  3. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    Fuck ICE AND fuck Milo, and everyone who supports or has ever supported or platformed him (e.g., Julia Ioffe, Laurie Penny/Penny Red), ICE, or the ideologies of the current fascistic oligarchy running the U.S. and the world.

    They will come after or kill us all.

    Always.

    "Data centers are a distraction" yeah like your reporting is a distraction from reality. Take the tech-bro __ sucking elsewhere.

  7. The Atlantic republishes JD Vance’s anti-Trump essay from 10 years ago;
    Magazine invites readers to judge Vance’s ‘assessment’ of Trump, whom he called ‘cultural heroin’ during first term

  8. 😆 Oh look, The Atlantic took a break from overanalyzing global doom to pen a love letter to a metal bird that's finally learning to land! ✈️ Because clearly, discussing how the 747 retires is more riveting than their usual geopolitical navel-gazing. 🤷‍♂️

  9. Class A trolling by The Atlantic, having Frum contribute this item, which amounts to:

    Dear Dems, yes, a little different because not underage, but never forget you'll be held to a higher standard than the GOP, especially around issues of old men groping and raping young girls.

    None of this shit is tolerable, it goes without saying, but Frum really dives to the bottom here, equating these two, while a rapist president sits at the pleasure of a GOP congress.

  16. 👀 On our radar: Beware pre-shredded lettuce

    💬 “Perhaps ironically, the bags of shredded lettuce that promise to be pre-washed and ready to eat are riskier than whole heads of romaine.”

  17. Weekly output: Signal war-plans chat, AT&T limits autopay discount, Google travel search, my Washington Post origin story

    I had a roughly four-and-a-half-day workweek, thanks to my taking Thursday afternoon off to see the Nats home opener–and then spending Thursday night seeing one of Arlington’s finest punk-rock bands, Tsunami, play a set at the Black Cat with co-headliners Ida. I’d last set foot in that venue on 14th Street in 2007 for a show by another great local indie-rock outfit, the Dismemberment Plan, and it was great to be back there.

    Patreon readers got an extra post this week, a review of the book Character Limit: How Elon Musk Destroyed Twitter that examined how Musk’s disruption and destruction of government functions seems to follow the script he improvised in that disastrous takeover of Twitter.

    3/24/2025: Trump Officials Accidentally Add Atlantic Editor to Signal Chat About War Plans, PCMag

    I had to write about Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg’s recount of being added by mistake to a Signal chat about plans to strike Houthi militants–and I was glad I could include a disapproving quote in this post from an information-security expert and West Point grad I know.

    3/26/2025: AT&T’s Full Autopay Discount Will Soon Require Your Bank Details, PCMag

    Seeing AT&T suggest that subscribers get its credit card if they don’t want to allow direct withdrawals from their bank accounts but still want some kind of autopay discount made me think of how airlines now push their own credit cards.

    3/27/2025: Need to Get Away? Google’s Travel Search Can Now Track Hotel Prices, PCMag

    I thought the hotel rate tracking was the most useful part of this announcement, so it was interesting to see Ars Technica’s Ryan Whitwham lead with the screenshot-analysis part of the company’s news–and surface some details I hadn’t gotten.

    3/28/2025: My First Byline: Rob Pegoraro, Your First Byline

    I’ve enjoyed reading the how-I-got-started testimony of journalists on Ryan Teague Beckwith’s newsletter, so I couldn’t resist excavating some old e-mails and memos to write my own recollection.

  18. 1/2 Muistelen tässä Pete Hegsethin pitämää öyhötystä The Atlanticin päätoimittajasta.

    #TheAtlantic olisi varmaankin julkaissut viestejä muutoinkin, mutta olisiko tässä laajuudessa, jos #Hegseth olisi öyhöttämisen sijaan ottanut lusikan kauniiseen käteen, ja sanonut, että mokattiin, #SoriSiitä. Mutta kun ei sovi näiden pirtaan se.
