My latest on Substack: Charli xcx, Ethel Cain, "TikTok music" and how algorithms are ruining our music tastes. All this because I actually like Charli's new "Wuthering Heights" soundtrack singles! Read it here: open.substack.com/pub/redlefth...

“Amid an overload of information of uncertain value, The Atlantic’s founders wanted to create something that was solid and enduring," Jake Lundberg writes. He looks back to the magazine's founding, 168 years ago, in Time-Travel Thursdays:

In my latest post, I analyze the current medieval fashion trend. Similar to the pandemic's cottagecore craze, images of chivalric battles, billowing dresses and fairy tales offer a respite from modern stressors. Unlike 2020, though, people are armored — literally.

Why is medieval fashion so popular now?
Renaissance fairs, chainmail and armored fashion are taking over the runway and my social media feeds.

Its my first day of unemployment, and I'm saddened to hear I'll be joined by other amazing reporters at Teen Vogue. Their political coverage was influential for young voters. Too many news outlets are announcing layoffs, and I don't think its incidental. We need journalism to prosper as a democracy.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Today is my last day at Cascade PBS. The transition has been hard & I'm unsure of what's next.
While I've got spare time, I'll be working on creative projects I've been too scared to try. I've launched a Substack to have fun & rediscover myself apart from journalism ✨

Thousands flooded the streets of Seattle Saturday, capping a week of protests & growing tension over the Trump administration’s immigration policies & threats to send ICE to “democrat power centers.” Officials estimated 70,000+ attended, making the No Kings protest among the largest in city history.

Today, the House of Representatives voted to rescind previously approved federal funding for public media. Federal support for public media costs just $1.60 per person each year. Eliminating this funding would have a devasting impact on local journalism, video series, events and more.
