Big news that I'm delighted to no longer be keeping a secret: Next week I join @wired.com as a senior writer!

As everyone knows, this is a top-tier publication and indispensable record of digital life today. I'll be covering internet culture in all forms, as I have for almost 15 years now.

NEW from me: #SkinnyTok influencer Liv Schmidt is making an est. $100k a month from the Skinni Societe, a group of girls encouraging each other to starve themselves.
