What is freedom—and what does it take to rebuild it? At #LibCon2026, @ezraklein.bsky.social and @dsallentess.bsky.social will hold a fireside chat on the obstacles facing liberal democracy's revival.

Reported on the return of social smoking for the @washingtonpost.com! It’s about nostalgia, nihilism, being “bad” without feeling bad, how big tobacco is still doing what they do best (making people think smoking is cool) & choosing the devil you know in a world of dangers unknown. wapo.st/4wAfSvM

Cigarettes are back in vogue. How did this happen?

Celebrities like Dua Lipa and Gracie Abrams have been photographed with cigs, as have social media influencers who like the retro vibes.

Let’s do this! Did you have something that kept you going as an angsty teen? A set of drawing pens that let you escape, a journal, a good set of earbuds, etc? It would’ve really sucked to not have that, right? Send a little bit of love and comfort to a teen who *really* needs love and comfort.

First up! We need gear for our first teen! He was dealt a really hard hand in life and has tried really hard. I think he's a good person who need helps so we're starting here. He owned one pair of shoes with holes in them when I first met him. He needs this.
