In summer 2025, Black New Yorkers died from heat-related illness at 3X the rate of white New Yorkers. Latino residents died at 2X the rate. My latest investigation examines why New Yorkers are struggling to access cooling assistance as the city's heat becomes increasingly deadly.

The Margin's new feature, "Overheating at Home." More New Yorkers now die from summer heat than winter cold, but city and state funding lags behind the changing climate. By Jordan Gass-Poore'and Helina Selemon.

I'm a huge fan of the Faust legend, even going so far as to name my future unborn child (or a cat) Mephistopheles. "Mephisto" is in my top two favorite adaptations of Faust (you don't have to love the legend or horror to enjoy this movie). #100horrormoviesin92days

Can any of my German friends out there explain to me the phenomenon that is Sportfreunde Stiller's Ein Kompliment? I was at a karoke bar in Nürnberg and someone sang this song. The crowd erupted in applause and sang their hearts out. I was the only person there who didn't know the song.
