I tried rewatching Children of Men this year and could not handle it. Luckily Karisa Tell Langlo is here to talk about disaster, prescient fiction, The Wasteland and warped time cnet.com/news/15-years-…

Children of Men is genuinely hard to watch in 2021. I tried to make sense of my rewatch experience for CNET, 15 years after seeing it in a theater on my first date! cnet.com/news/15-years-…

Brilliant reflection on hope, childbearing, COVID, and Children of Men. cnet.com/news/15-years-…

They say you might not realize the exact moment you've made it in your career, but CNET is officially paying me to write about dick jokes now, so I think the day has come. cnet.com/news/not-enoug…

Of all places 😄 CNET!

The HBO adaptation of Emily St. J. Mandel's incredible novel #StationEleven streams today, and I got to review it for CNET. This series (and the book!) absolutely floored me. cnet.com/news/review-st…

"The conceit of the cliche-made-literal never quite takes off, largely bc the show doesn't seem all that interested in its own inquiries. Or maybe it's bc an extended metaphor isn't the same thing as a fully realized story." cnet.co/3v5NiV7 via Karisa Tell Langlo CNET

A Garth Greenwell close-read of Raven Leilani is the crossover episode I never thought to ask for. Damn, this essay is incredible, and I too regularly turn to a random page in Luster when I need to remember what writing looks like. thesewaneereview.com/articles/green…

I dreamed of moving to California the whole time I lived in Milwaukee and now that I'm here, I just want to go home! 😍
