Equator is kicking off the World Cup with an essay from Mexico by the legendary @JuanVilloro56 – on the unequal billing of the three host nations, the “cautious attitude” of fans who fear being deprived of a great public spectacle, and the moments of magic to come

Joe Sacco spent years reporting on a communal riot in Uttar Pradesh for his new work of graphic reportage. But his Indian publisher abruptly dropped the book before it could be sold there. We have published an excerpt.

Please read! If it matters, one of the more exciting players to watch in the upcoming world cup is Jordan's captain Musa Al-Taamari 🇯🇴, he's of Palestinian descent and one of the best wingers Asia has ever seen

Nice to read this @GavJacobson and @Equatormag : "The resources, in the end, are not confessional. They hold for those who do not believe as well, because they touch what exceeds all measurement: art, prayer, silence, gratuitousness, and human encounter."
For @Equatormag, I interviewed Antonio Spadaro (Vatican Undersecretary, papal confidant, and co-author of a book on faith with Martin Scorsese) about the theological and geopolitical stakes of the pope’s first encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas. equator.org/articles/to-dwel…

Incredibly worth your time - for the texture of Spadaro's speech alone (also for thinking clearly about AI's relationship to institutions of faith) (but I just love the way it sounds)
