Anyone have a story of how a now closed Starbucks fit into their life in NYC? Stories of first dates, job interviews, random run ins… I’m collecting them for a piece for next week at @curbed.com

Hit me up! DM or Adriane.Quinlan@voxmedia.com

“13 percent of The Best American Poetry is composed of poems by past or future editors of The Best American Poetry.” Or, how a dude who arbitrarily hated Adrienne Rich used academic garbagetongue to trash up and dumb down an art.

CBS News Agrees Not to Edit ‘Face The Nation’ Interviews Following Homeland Security Backlash CBS News said it would cede its power to hold "Face the Nation" interviewees to account after DHS Secretary Kristi Noem complained

CBS News is giving up the power it has to hold “Face the Nation” interviewees to account. Following pressure from Trump, it has agreed not to edit interviews, even to remove false statements or propaganda uttered by political operatives and officials, or add explanatory context.

If anyone (@thebaffler.com @nplusonemag.com @publicbooks.bsky.social) might be interested in an article

You: a person who made the leap, and rented an apartment from someone you were *already* friends with.

I want to ask you about that tenant/landlord relationship. The crushing demand of feeding their cat. The fear that they'd come down and... bring you cookies.

Happy to keep you anon. DM me!

I saw my idol's name appear in the documents, did a search, called, and she picked up on the second ring. As I thought she might. As she'd written about doing in essay after essay: the phone as lifeline. "Hellooo?" As if I might be "Leonard," "Rhoda," Ann.

Dozens of ‘unattended’ cats seized from Bradenton Boat The cats were seized by Manatee County Sheriff’s Department and the Manatee County animal welfare unit.

They chartered the boat, bopping island to island with no human contact, creating an alternate society.

My son’s public school education has educated him on Easter — but sparingly. Today he drew a “rabbit cracking out of an egg.”

Misericordia is a mid student film and y’all would realize that if it wasn’t in French and set in a stunning “village.”

My ideal food diary is a breakfast bowl created from all the leftovers available in a rich bath of hot sauce, a daytime fast broken by a 6pm buttered popcorn, and a late dinner that contains the only nutrients my body will get.

I need an oral history of working at the FreshDirect warehouse on the night that New Yorkers started hoarding fine olive oil and coffee at pre tariff prices.

The year of bat mitzvahs was a silent meditation retreat compared to the year of fortieth birthday parties.

Finally earned the New York Scout badge where you loudly yell “People are walking here, asshole!!” at a driver illegally plowing through a crosswalk. Bonus stripe for cursing right outside a daycare.

NEW: The Supreme Court *will not* take up casino mogul Steve Wynn's bid to overturn the landmark free press ruling in New York Times v. Sullivan. The case, Wynn v. Associated Press, No. 24-829, was denied with no noted dissents or statements. #SCOTUS

How White-Collar Criminals Plundered a Brooklyn Neighborhood Stacy Horn’s Killing Fields documents how East New York was ransacked by the real estate industry and abandoned by the city in the process.

I grew up on LI, hearing that East New York was the most dangerous part of Brooklyn. I didn’t know that the scheme to ruin it was hatched a mile from my house. For @thenation.com, I wrote about a new book that traces the repercussions of the conspiracy: www.thenation.com/article/cult...

Thrilled to tell you all that Twitter — I mean, X — is currently down.

Like artists taking over SoHo in the 1970s, but less fun. “One of Musk’s top lieutenants and his wife and young child have shacked up on the 6th floor of our agency and they are living there.”
