You haven’t even made it to the couch yet, but your brain is already collecting data, filing away impressions, making ... Read more

The Supreme Court sounds surprisingly open to a case against a death sentence

From the moment the Republican Party gained a 6-3 supermajority on the Supreme Court, in late 2020, the Court has often acted as if it is going down a checklist — identifying landmark precedents that are out of favor with the GOP, and overruling those decisions in party-line votes. Among other things, the Court eliminated […] Read more

If you spend enough time around genuinely successful people—not the loud ones on social media, but the ones who quietly build real, lasting success—you start to notice a pattern: They all have an unusual relationship with self-control. Not the rigid, punishing version we associate with perfectionism. I’m talking about the grounded, calm kind of self-control—the ... Read more Read more

The class that insists it’s “comfortable but not rich” while sending their kids to schools that cost more than the median income. Nobody thinks they’re upper middle class.
