For @wmag , I talked to champ @karltowns , thanked him personally for bringing home a chip to the @nyknicks , and told him how I wore my bootleg Allan Houston jersey I bought in Chinatown when I was 11 years old for the entire playoff run.

For @cnn I talked to AI doomers about how the world is actually going to end—and a bunch of people who work in existential risk areas about why it’s not. Link in bio ☢️🤖🦠⏰ 17 Sep 2026

Had some fun writing about Danny McBride’s debut short story collection for the @newyorkermag and why it’s a breath of fresh air compared to the dour library of contemporary masculiterature. More at the link in bio. 08 Sep 2026

Three months in at @cnn 21 Jul 2026

Ok I know this sounds like the Stanley Tucci origin story in The Devil Wears Prada but when I was like 13 I used to steal my mom’s copies of @wmag because it just seemed to me like this impossibly chic object. I had no idea W was even a women’s magazine. (Yes, I know how funny that sounds.) To me, it was something beautiful and interesting and thoughtful, like an intellectual vision of fashion. I’m not sure @jensen.e.davis knew exactly how much it meant to me when she asked me to write a feature for the summer issue about some of the world’s best male athletes and their love of fashion. My mother and I don’t talk anymore, but in writing this I felt like I got to access a time when our relationship was better. I was just a kid stealing her magazines again. Absolutely incredible photos of @jaytatum0 @virgilvandijk @nojo18 @jrodshow44 @yutohorigome @pierregasly and @lore_musetti from @ryanlowry @jonasunger @boladebanjo Full story at the link in my bio. 27 Jun 2026

Being able to report on stories like this is why I came to @cnn in the first place. Last week, a cryptocurrency platform mostly known for memecoins launched a new bounty marketplace, where they said you can “pay ANYONE to do ANYTHING.” It took a few hours for things to get predictably dark. Suicide bounties. Self-harm bounties. And, yes, a lot of bounties for folks willing to get their faces tattooed for a couple thousand dollars. I was able to get in touch and interview several people on either side of the bounty operation, as well as find the tattoo artist in Chennai who inked a desperate man’s forehead. I also talked to philosophers and theologians about the state of human dignity in the face of capitalistic nihilism. This is a dark story that needed some light shined on it. Read it at the link in my bio. 13 Jun 2026

“For a long time I stayed away from the Acropolis. It daunted me, that somber rock. I preferred to wander the modern city, imperfect, blaring. The weight and moment of those worked stones promised to make the business of seeing them a complicated one. So much converges there. It’s what we’ve rescued from the madness. Beauty, dignity, order, proportion. There are obligations attached to such a visit.” Don DeLillo, The Names, pg. 1. 19 May 2026

The view from 9F. For @nytmag and the wonderful @elenamsb, I wrote about the modern instinct of comparing disturbing political moments to the satirical sci-fi movies of the past as a misguided way of comforting ourselves. When I mentioned I was writing this piece, my friend @c_heller told me to read the introduction to Ursula K. LeGuin’s masterpiece “The Left Hand of Darkness.” In it, LeGuin writes about the limitations of science fiction, calling it a “predictive not descriptive” genre. I thought about that quite a lot in writing about directors like Verhoeven, Lynch, and Judge. They weren’t clairvoyants, they were just laying the absurdities of the present out in an unfamiliar form. As Marshall McLuhan might say, they were all marching backwards into the future. LeGuin’s essay served as a backbone to the thesis of this piece, so give it a read, it’s wonderful like everything else she wrote. Link to the NYT mag essay in bio. 22 Feb 2026

My story about football players getting robbed in the @nytimes on Super Bowl Sunday 🤝🏼 inari footballs 08 Feb 2026

My natural inclination is to self-effacement so this is hard for me to say but 2025 was a very good year for me as a writer and I am so, so grateful to all my editors for continuing to give me chances to pursue and explore the stuff that rattles around in my brain day and night. 04 Jan 2026
