For @us.theguardian.com, I reported on how economic instability, skyrocketing costs of basic needs, and the job market are making it harder for young people to enter adulthood: "It’s never enough."

genuinely surprised and a little bit delighted that Gen Z’s celeb role model is……*drum roll*….Zendaya, beating out Taylor Swift, Elon Musk, MrBeast, LeBron James and a whole bunch of others, according to new Yahoo/YouGov polling

the last year has been transformative. my life looks radically different now, and so do i. spending a few hours as a rockette forced me to contemplate how i was going to talk about this, and to confront my greatest fear — being seen. www.yahoo.com/entertainmen...

I spent the last year transforming my life. Becoming a Rockette for a day made me confront a fear I couldn't shake.
The Rockettes, known for their athleticism and precision, let me join them for the day. No pressure, right?

SO excited for this one. One of the things we say a lot in Vox culture is that pop culture is America's subconscious. So a few months ago, I pitched a question: 25 years into the 21st century, can we use 25 pieces of pop culture to explain where we are? www.vox.com/culture/4226...

this one is for all my fellow millennials terrorized by What Not To Wear (by @constancegrady.bsky.social) www.vox.com/culture/4005...

Yea, this is a coup.
Fascist foreign billionaire Elon Musk and his goon squad of young dorks, including a 19-year-old who calls himself "Bigballs," have seized control of the government.

got to edit two of my favorite pieces on Vox dot com in a single week!! first up, @constancegrady.bsky.social on how our fretting about men’s reading habits (it’s me, I’ve fretted) is built on one old and/or faulty stat (and why we remain convinced it's a problem) www.vox.com/culture/3929...

Are men’s reading habits truly a national crisis?

One of my favorite article genres is "tracking down a zombie stat" and here's a great addition. Have you seen the stat that men are only 20% of the fiction market? @constancegrady.bsky.social tries to track it down: www.vox.com/culture/3929... @vox.com

One of the most interesting things about Oz is that while most of the children's fantasy classics of the anglophone world are English, Oz is an American fairyland. That means it becomes a weirdly effective metaphor for American politics. www.vox.com/culture/3885...

Why Wicked’s politics feel so bizarrely timely
America and Oz have always had a lot in common.

Talked to @hifortesa.bsky.social about something that really grinds my gears: sex ed makes us believe you can get pregnant at any point during the month and that it's easy This leads to lower knowledge and empowerment about our bodies, sex, & fertility t.co/UdedrxtI5Q
