Sunday Good Reads for April 19th, 2026 [1]

['View Profile']

Date: 2026-04-19  

For a variety of life-related reasons, I don’t have hardly anything to post this week. So I thought I would recommend newsletters as a whole this time. These are in no order, but I enjoy them all.

Counter Craft: Thoughtful writing about literature and its associated craft.

5AM StoryTalk: Writing and society from the perspective of a professional screen writer.

Dirtbags Through the Ages: Hilarious history. Probably the best history writer on the internet.

Blood in the Machine: Brian Merchant’s excellent look at technology. Buy his book, too.

Parker Malloy. Outstanding journalism.

Everything Is Horrible: Noah always makes me think about art and politics, even when I disagree with him.

Letters from an American: Measured, intelligent look at politics and the history that lead to those politics. Fascinating work.

Abortion, Every Day: Excellent reporting on abortion and health care. Every day.

The Downballot: Great look at the mechanics and numbers of elections at every level. Ridiculously comprehensive.

Off Message: The most intelligent look at Americna politics around.

Dan Davies: Thoughtful piece son how systems actually work. May sound boring, but it never is and it covers the ways and whys of how organizations work and impact our lives with a clarity not often seen.

Strength In Numbers: Data done right, with context and expertise given their proper value.

Men Yell At Me: Excellent reporting and commentary on politics and life and feminism.

Hope you enjoy and have the best possible week, everyone.
