Read excerpt
Happy 30th to Slate (and our haters)! Explore 30 years of sharp takes, unsolicited advice, and endless internet debates at our throwback homepage. I’ve been a journalist for long enough to be familiar with most of the job’s occupational hazards. I’ve angered powerful people without a legal canopy to protect me.

At the end of July, several friends and I took a vacation to Paris, to both celebrate someone’s 35th birthday and spend money lavishly and irresponsibly before everyone starts having kids. Our head count was a dozen people—including three couples—some of whom would be meeting for the very first time on this trip. I’m guessing this sounds hellish to you, and trust me, I had

Sign up for the Slatest to get the most insightful analysis, criticism, and advice out there, delivered to your inbox daily. I need to acknowledge up front that it is unwise for anybody—including me—to deduce any comprehensive conclusions about the Democratic Party and where it’s headed from Wisconsin’s gubernatorial primary last week. That was a really weird race, and it only got weirder as Election Day drew nearer. The front-runner was Francesca Hong, a State Assemblywoman and DSA member who,
