The New York Magazine Union is back at the bargaining table this morning to continue our fight for AI job protections.

Here's Alyssa Thomas's statement postgame on the abuse that Sun players (and players around the league) have been subjected to over the course of the season and during this series. It's worth reading in full. Stephanie White speaking on it as well, will add her comments below.

I spent the past few months figuring out what’s going on in this exciting but complicated time for the WNBA. Through conversations with players, owners, league execs, and more our new FORTUNE story asks whether the league and its commissioner are ready for this moment:

An Emma Carmichael blockbuster on the WNBA's miraculous, complex, and years-in-the-making breakthrough season. Essential reading before the Finals tip off tonight: gq.com/story/how-the-…

I wrote about the incredible year of growth in the WNBA this year — how we got to this point, what it's looked like from the inside, and where it might go from here — for GQ Magazine: gq.com/story/how-the-…

Spent my summer (and spring!) making a music and culture publication with Ryan Dombal Jill Mapes One Punch-In Man Andy Cush and gosh wow here we are :) hearingthings.co

“When I ask him to describe a through line between the characters he’s played, he says, ‘People who want to be something so much but don't have the instrument to play that kind of music.’” Profiled Paul Mescal for the November cover of @gqmagazine: gq.com/story/paul-mes…

Jonquel Jones won her first WNBA championship last night and was named Finals MVP. I profiled Jones two years ago, exploring the question of who gets to be a WNBA superstar. Fitting to revisit after a season where basketball wasn't always the focus. espn.com/wnba/story/_/i…

Well, after five years editing and writing features and politics stories for Esquire, I, indeed, received my delayed calendar invite. Yesterday, I along with a couple other Hearst employees, was laid off from a job I loved and was very good at.

In the wake of so many friends losing everything they have, the instinct I see again and again from the people I know is to give everything they have to help. This is the only way forward, it’s so clear. We are inextricably linked. Strength in community and all that. ❤️

my book, CHANGEOVER, will be out this summer. read about Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, the end of the Big 3, and pretty much any stray thought about tennis still rattling around my skull preorder it here 🎾 bookshop.org/p/books/change…

I can't wait for the Golden State Valkyries to make history tonight, but remember that the Pioneers (1979-81) were SF's first pro women's team. It included Anna Johnson, the first-ever pro women's basketball player from the Bay Area & an Oakland legend: oaklandside.org/2025/05/06/wnb…

My father was a Nazi hunter, until he was killed in the Lockerbie bombing, when I was four. Now, a man will stand trial for the crime. What does it mean, after nearly forty years, to seek justice for the crimes of history? My new cover story for NYT Magazine: nytimes.com/2025/05/20/mag…

I wrote for the Guardian’s Saturday magazine about my son Max, who changed how I see the world. Took ages. More jokes after the first bit. Thanks Merope for being the most patient and generous editor. theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…
