If I can be earnest, there are few people writing today whose work I love as much as Hannah's. As someone who edited her, I found her style pleasingly, beautifully distinctive, full of flourishes and surprises—no one's doing it quite like her. I can't wait to read these stories

“The consensus is essentially that women are subhuman,” she says, “and I mean that quite literally: subrational, non-agentic, cattle.”
New in @NYMag: I spoke to women in, around, and leaving MAGA about the right’s unabashed embrace of misogyny.

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.
ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

Good news if you like it when I write about Jews, the labor movement, socialism, Zionism, psychoanalysis, neoconservatives, and NYC baby. Bad news for the rest of you.
