Hello,
longreads! I'm sorry this space has been so neglected. I don't really have time to maintain the Workweek Reading Recs any more but this morning I was reminded of "Things I Read That I Love", a weekly feature on Autostraddle.

Happy reading! Remember, you're still welcome to share anything you read and want to talk about. I started this community because I read a piece called Adam Lanza Fan Art (link to community post, which links to the original) and wanted - needed - to talk about it. You're welcome to share any* longform journalism you read and want to talk about!
*You are allowed to share pieces about hateful things happening but if you share something hateful, you will be banned immediately - e.g., you may share a piece about an antisemitic hate crime but if the work you share is an antisemitic hate crime, you will be banned. (Anti-Zionism is not necessarily antisemitic. Free Palestine.) Please DM me if you have any questions.
Hello,
Welcome to the 349th installment of Things I Read That I Love, wherein I share with you some of the longer-form journalism/essays I’ve read recently so that you can know more about iPods!
