Just Good Shit: 01.03.21
A couple hours ago, my girlfriend asked me what I was going to include in my newsletter today and I said “just a bunch of little articles,” which was apparently not quite as specific of an answer as she was looking for.
Anyway, here are all your little articles!
On the blog (ICYMI)
And there’s a new episode of the podcast this week!
Reading
The Mutated Virus Is a Ticking Time Bomb, The Atlantic.
Some Covid Survivors Haunted by Loss of Smell and Taste, New York Times.
The Year When Everyone Bullied Their Mayor, The New Republic.
‘Such a Personal, Private Thing’: Rethinking the Home Pregnancy Test, New York Times.
Rev. William Barber on Greed, Poverty and Evangelical Politics, New York Times.
Wonder Woman’s Middle Eastern Stereotypes Should Have Stayed in the 1980s, Slate.
Watching
We’re halfway through The Flight Attendant, which is great so far, and have also been binging At Home with Amy Sedaris. Also The Reagans, which is infuriating but really well done. And Wonder Woman 1984 and Bridgerton, both of which were…bad (and not in a fun way imo).
Have a good week! 🗓
