Among Democrats, the soul-searching and finger-pointing has begun
KAMALA HARRIS HAS BEEN DEFEATED, Donald Trump is headed back to the White House, and the Democrats have begun soul-searching to determine what went so wrong in a landslide that saw the party lose ground across the nation.
There's plenty of blame to go around. Most of the finger-pointing hasn't been aimed at Harris, who ran a truncated campaign that was generally well regarded before the Election Day drubbing. Instead, some of the sharpest criticism focused on President Joe Biden for moving forward with a catastrophic re-election bid.
"The story might have been different if he had made a timely decision to step aside and allowed the party to move on," says David Axelrod, the strategist behind both of Barack Obama's presidential wins.
The frustration with Biden, many Democrats argue, should extend to members of his inner circle who shielded an 81-year-old President in physical decline. "I don't believe that Joe Biden believed he was diminished," says John Morgan, a Florida attorney and Biden donor. "Now, who may have known he was diminished were the sycophants around him in the White House."

The journalist and the jinx in a suburban standoff
CLAIRE DANES GETS A LOT OF ATTENTION for her “cry face.” It is, indeed, a sight to behold. Engulfed by waves of sorrow, her chin vibrates, her eyes scrunch, the corners of her mouth turn down as though tugged by invisible weights.

LIVING IN PUBLIC
“The camera eats first.” A decade ago, that phrase was a joke about influencers and their avocado toast. Now it's shorthand for how every corner of life—dinners, cleaning, milestones, even grief—can be packaged for public consumption. We live in a world where intimacy has become inventory, where the difference between living and posting is often just a matter of lighting.

The food pyramid may be back on the menu
EARLY PUBLIC NUTRITION ADVICE CAME AS A WARNING. Wilbur O. Atwater, a chemist and renowned nutritionist, wrote in an 1902 edition of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) digest, Farmers' Bulletin, that \"Unless care is exercised in selecting food, a diet may result which is one-sided or badly balanced—that is, one in which either protein or fuel ingredients (carbohydrate and fat) are provided in excess ... The evils of overeating may not be felt at once, but sooner or later they are sure to appear.\"

A seductive Dangerous Liaisons remix, with feminist intentions
There are no heroes in Les Liaisons Dangereuses, Pierre Choderlos de Laclos' 1782 novel of end-stage French aristocratic decadence. Its chief villain is Marquise Isabelle de Merteuil, a master manipulator who exploits her former lover the Vicomte de Valmont's resurgent desire for her with a wager that dooms them both. As a teenage Fiona Apple dryly noted: “It's a sad, sad world when a girl will break a boy just because she can.”
