You’ve probably heard that writing is a muscle that quickly atrophies when not regularly exercised. I heard that, too—and initially ignored it.

The communal nature of writing is deeply satisfying.(less)

Today marks the 75th anniversary of the United States detonating a nuclear bomb over Hiroshima. We’ve long debated over whether it saved lives—by bringing WWII to a conclusion without a massive invasion. But there’s no dispute that, in an instant, we killed 75,000 people, most of them civilians, and that 125,000 more died...
