An editorial illustration for an adaptation from a speech Jonathan Franzen gave on climate change.
Franzen argues is that we should stop pretending that humanity can fix climate change. Humans are doomed, and should a) admit that and b) realize that reducing carbon emissions, as an all-in political goal, is kinda pointless. Instead, we should acknowledge that any world-improving action—reducing inequality or securing fair elections—will in some ways help us when the inevitable apocalypse comes.

For a piece on how voice plays an important step amidst a trans woman’s transition and how vocal training can help her find her voice. Hormone treatments can change several things about ones body except their vocal cords. And since trans people face extraordinary levels of violence, achieving a feminine voice can serve as a cloak of protection from bias and bigotry.

Gilcombe, a man who lost an arm at an early age, and came to understand his disability in the context of an "inconvenience" rather than a debilitating quality—similar to how his parents framed his racial status and to how he relates to his prosthetic, now. He's an avid cyclist, and the story alludes to this frequently.
