Op-Ed:\u00a0Kids can\u2019t write cursive. The world won\u2019t end<\/a>, on the LA Times\u2014\u201cThe real lessons, then, were not in how to communicate, but in how to conform to a standardized model, obey authority and follow rules.\u201d<\/p>\n

What Elizabeth Warren\u2019s loss says about us<\/a>, on Vox\u2014\u201cDonald Trump has a plan for nothing. So why did voters reject the candidate who has a plan\u00a0for, well, everything?\u201d<\/p>\n

On body horror and growing up strange<\/a>, on Welcome Collective\u2014\u201cWe can\u2019t get enough of stories about the fragile precariousness of our meat and skin and bone.\u201d<\/p>\n

How Steak Became Manly and Salads Became Feminine<\/a>, on The Conversation\u2014\u201cFood didn\u2019t become gendered until the late 19th century.\u201d<\/p>\n

Re-reading Narnia: The Last Battle<\/a>, on Seven Miles of Steele Thistles\u2014\u201cWhen I was a child, of all the Narnia books The Last Battle<\/i> was the one I liked least.
