On Colossus magazine, which publishes gorgeous, obsequious profiles of people like Zuck and Josh Kushner: “It’s all well and good for the tech industry media bubble to have its own in-flight magazine, but audiences aren’t stupid" — @reckless to @andrewfed sfstandard.com/2026/10/30/co…

“Just because I have a copy of Mein Kampf doesn’t make me a fascist?” [Judge] Pittman broke into the questioning, frustrated with [government antifa expert Kyle] Shideler’s answers on cross-examination. “Not unless it’s consistent with your other behavior,” said Shideler …
Spent a couple of months in Texas reporting the story of the Prairieland protesters, the first Americans convicted as Antifa terrorists, for @MotherJones. One of them told me: “We are not terrorists, we are being terrorized.” motherjones.com/politics/202…

And that man? Steven Spielberg
At a Marxist-themed America 250 event yesterday, a man in a colonial getup recited one of George Washington's speeches. After, he told me he'd given the same speech at a UFO convention the previous week, because he believes Washington was abducted at Valley Forge.

On the other side of the Great Firewall, there is no YouTube, but there are more than half a billion people who watch streamers. What happens when America’s top creators introduce themselves? gq.com/story/why-internet-st…

Everywhere writer Andrew Fedorov went in China, he saw people wearing hats that simply read “Colorado.” Where did this oddly specific trend come from? The answer lies somewhere between an American tourism bureau, Rosé of Blackpink, and Brandy Melville. gq.com/story/colorado-hats-i…

“We worked hard during the day and drank smuggled liquor at night. Two people from our section lost their cool and fell in love.” Famed Russian historian Yuri Slezkine recalls what he learned from the Soviet Adventure Library, and beyond. equator.org/articles/boyhood

Former Paris Review editor Lorin Stein was ostracized over sexual harassment allegations. Now he’s editing the divisive, right-wing magazineTablet. What’s going on? @andrewfed investigates. thenation.com/article/societ…

Everything about Tablet magazine, and Lorin Stein editing Tablet magazine, seems weird as hell. (Also the head honcho at Tablet is making SO MUCH MONEY OH MY GOD.) Glad to have @andrewfed investigating this latest round of media insanity! thenation.com/article/societ…

I wrote an essay for @TheIdeasLetter about the Russian intelligentsia escaping from Russia and from itself. A teaser: “I personally tend to see it as a hereditary caste which perpetually fluctuates between self-sacrificial messianism coupled with inherent subversiveness and—at the very same time—extreme servility that results in a never-ending search for the next strongman to embrace—be it Stalin, Putin, Netanyahu or the anti-Russian NATO adoration club today.” theideasletter.org/essay/fli…
