My boyfriend and I met at a party hosted by a friend of a friend of mine and a friend of a friend of his. This is an anthropological event, an epochal miracle.
He seemed like the kind of guy who would be on my Hinge Standouts (chiseled scruffy jaw, lean, “Greatest strength: Making reservations”), so I approached him.
It was difficult to figure him out—was he in a relationship? Gay? Moderate? A smoker? Didn’t want kids? Looking for something short-term? Without being able to consult a profile, I didn’t even know how tall he was. After the party, he asked me to get a drink.
When we met the following week at a wine bar in Williamsburg, I certainly walked in feeling above everyone else. The place was swarming with online first daters who approached each other hesitantly, inspecting angles to see if their faces matched their profile, and giving awkward hugs. We didn’t need that. We met at a party.
I knew right away that something was off, but with a magical, real-life meet cute, I was willing to put nearly anything aside.

Keir Starmer has accidentally given us four years in which to build a new political system. We should seize the chance. By George Monbiot, published in the Guardian 27th May 2025 This feels terminal. The breaches of trust have been so frequent, so vast and so decisive that the voters Labour has already lost are […]

But perhaps there was no event, which tended farther to the improvement of the age, than one, which has not been much remarked, the accidental finding of a copy of Justinian’s Pandects, about the year 1130, in the town of Amalfi in Italy.—David Hume History of England, 23.34 The modern university is in a grave […]
The Northumberland Line, a £300 million project led by the county council, opened in December 2024 to little fanfare. But it was recently revealed to have had five times as many riders as expected in the first five months. It is not alone in massively exceeding its ridership predictions. These figures remind us of the […]
Early in President Trump’s first term, McSweeney’s editors began to catalog the head-spinning number of misdeeds coming from his administration. We called this list a collection of Trump’s cruelties, collusions, corruptions, and crimes, and it felt urgent to track them, to ensure these horrors—happening almost daily—would not be forgotten. Now that Trump has returned to office, amid civil rights, humanitarian, economic, and constitutional crises, we felt it critical to make an inventory of this new round of horrors. This list will be updated monthly between now and the end of Donald Trump’s second term.

My journey towards bowing to the feet of the Lord of Darkness has been a long one. I can’t be sure exactly where it began, if it was when I started using coconut flour to cut gluten out of my family’s diet, or if the seeds of demon worship were planted in me when I was forcing my kids to drink chlorella-and-milk-thistle smoothies to detox their livers. But I am pretty sure that by the time I threw out all our pediatric Tylenol and replaced it with colloidal silver, my love of Ammit, the eater of souls, was already being well established.
The fish oil to Mammon pipeline is surprisingly short. One minute you’re fermenting your own cider, and next thing you know, you’re pledging the souls of your offspring to Gruumsh, he who never ceases in human destruction. I admit that it must have been part of my online algorithm, because it was within weeks of buying that anti-fluoride chelating solution that I started getting targeted ads promising me a seat at the right hand of the Fallen One.
Private equity firms and major health insurers are taking over the home care industry, with deteriorating outcomes for patients.
Donald Trump has signed an Executive Order nominally aimed at “Restoring Gold Standard Science”. Setting aside the absurdity of “restoring” something that never existed, what does that purport to mean? Gold Standard Science means science conducted in a manner that is: (i) reproducible; (ii) transparent; (iii) communicative of error and uncertainty; (iv) collaborative and interdisciplinary; (v) […]
