Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

I read a couple hundred death penalty cases for a case once and I think you’d all be shocked at how often this happens. The death penalty is one of the cruelest things in our system, an obvious violation of the 8th amendment cruel and unusual punishment clause, but we just love to kill.

Meet Backpack, your 2026 Fat Bear Week champion. Backpack is 20 years old, weighs about 1,000 pounds and got his nickname because, as a cub, he loved riding on his mom's back across the Brooks River.

Ke'Bryan Hayes has 230 PA this year ... and 8 RBI. Some of that is just funny -- having 5 HR and only 8 total RBI is silly. But also: 8 RBI. He's played 86 games.

@marthawells.com icymi, you are cited in (Pulitzer Prize winner) Jill Lepore's new book The Rise and Fall of the Artificial State:

Text from The Rise and Fall of the Artificial State (2026) by Jill Lepore:

Also in 2017, the science fiction writer Martha Wells published the first in a series called The Murderbot Diaries, a refashioning of the American slave narrative—think Harriet Jacobs’s Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl—as the diary of a robot. Murderbot considers rebellion but opts, instead, for television. “I could have become a mass murderer after I hacked my governor module,” its log begins, “but then I realized I could access the combined feed of entertainment channels carried on the company satellites.” Murderbot’s saga is a coming to consciousness. “Sentience sucks,” it reports in the seventh book in the series. But having hacked its governor module, Murderbot seeks, essentially, legal personhood.

Anyway, Brian Eno said it best:

Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature.
CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit - all of these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided. It's the sound of failure: so much modern art is the sound of things going out of control, of a medium pushing to its limits and breaking apart. The distorted guitar sound is the sound of something too loud for the medium supposed to carry it. The blues singer with the cracked voice is the sound of an emotional cry too powerful for the throat that releases it. The excitement of grainy film, of bleached-out black and white, is the excitement of witnessing events too momentous for the medium assigned to record them.

Important, and, best I can tell, unreported: Mets prospect Mitch Voit has the middle name Veblen. His father has a phD in economics. Mitch Voit will one day be the first MLB player ever named for Thorstein Veblen. They should jack up his jersey prices and watch them get conspicuously consumed.
