This Is No Way to Live Feelings of powerlessness can be insidious.

My latest is a reflection on the cycle of dread, disaster, and temporary reprieves we’re all navigating, what that cycle is doing to us, and how we can avoid losing ourselves to it.

This edition also includes a roundup of must-read pieces that have helped me think about this moment.
