Kyoto Has Zero Zen A great exchange rate, ChatGPT, and kimono-wearing bros have turned Kyoto into the loveliest tourist trap on earth.

I went to Kyoto to figure out how to travel now that we live in the age of overtourismβ€”too many people with too much money and too few places they all want to go.

I think @choire.bsky.social has the best gig in media right now and one reason it's so good is that he will ask @reeveswiedeman.bsky.social about his interview spreadsheets, this is peak performance

SNL is 50, Lorne Michaels is 80, and I tried to talk to people in his universe to understand Lorne, his power and influence in the entertainment worldβ€”and what happens if and when he ever leaves the show he created:

special appreciation to @bridgetgillard.bsky.social and especially @reeveswiedeman.bsky.social, who spent the end of negotations wearily explaining that he did not have endless time because he was also trying to close this great lorne michaels piece - www.vulture.com/article/snl-...

A mock magazine cover that reads "New York Union: Media Workers Tell All!"

A mock magazine cover that reads "New York Union: Media Workers Tell All!"

Remember in October when @nymag.com published its annual Power Issue with members of the β€œmedia elite?" Well, @nymagunion.bsky.social thought you might want to hear from media workers themselves.

Introducing our union Power Issue: MEDIA WORKERS TELL ALL!
