The Sky Thief How a goofy, God-fearing airport worker stole a passenger plane from the Seattle-Tacoma Airport and took flight with no plan to land.

The internet Beebo Russell is an archetype: a modern-day Icarus whose dramatic dying act has become a blank slate for others to project meaning upon..

The real Beebo Russell was a man in despair who spent his final minutes scared, lightheaded, covered in his own sick..

How knitters got knotted in a purity spiral A process of moral outbidding is corroding small communities from within

The dynamics of a purity spiral are those of a leaderless cult. You hold a viewpoint that privileges an abstraction of the world over the messy reality. You have a sense of mission which sets you apart from the world, and you derive social status from being holier than the next acolyte.
