I Stayed At Work While Miscarrying. What I Learned After Shocked Me.
So much about being a woman is waiting: waiting your turn for a promotion, waiting for the right time to bring something up in your relationships, waiting in hospital beds everywhere — if you’re lucky enough to make it to one. I’m in my new apartment — the first time I’ve ever lived alone — and I’m interviewing women who have had similar experiences with miscarrying at work.

I’m American. My Boyfriend’s Not. Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Could Force Us Apart.
In light of recent immigration crackdowns, U.S. universities like Columbia University and Cornell University released guidance advising international students to postpone international travel plans over spring break. Studying in the U.S. was supposed to be freeing, but instead it has made my boyfriend feel trapped.

That’s why Trump’s crackdown on international students is so alarming.

FBI’s Dan Bongino Will Reopen White House Mystery That Spawned Trump Accusations
LOADING ERROR LOADINGFBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino announced Monday that the agency is reinvestigating the case of the cocaine found at the White House in 2023 ― an incident that prompted Donald Trump to wildly speculate that the drug belonged to then-President Joe Biden or his son, Hunter Biden. AdvertisementRenewed interest in the matter is likely no coincidence after Trump exploited the controversy during his candidacy. “Does anybody really believe that the COCAINE found in the West Wing of the White House, very close to the Oval Office, is for the use of anyone other than Hunter & Joe Biden,” he wrote on Truth Social that summer. Advertisement“But watch, the Fake News Media will soon start saying that the amount found was ‘very small,’ & it wasn’t really COCAINE, but rather common ground up Aspirin, & the story will vanish.”Trump double-downed on his theory a bit later. In 2024, Trump claimed that Biden was “all jacked up” during a State of the Union address.

I Said One Little Word At Work. It Got Me Fired.
Then one year later, they fired the editor beneath me and decided I could handle things on my own. My mother, after I told her the news, didn’t say congratulations but: “Wow, I really didn’t know if you’d say yes.”Well, yes mom. That’s when something all-too familiar happened: My team shrunk at work, and I was asked to pick up the slack. It felt like the ultimate test, and I accepted:No, I cannot work extra hours because we are short-staffed. Come Monday, instead of feeling like a hero walking into work like I often did at the beginning, I felt nauseous.

My Husband And I Assumed We Would Have Kids. A Dog Changed Our Minds.
My husband, Nate, and I used to assume we’d have kids. Nate and I met our dog in Louisiana, a 4-year-old-ish black rescue Lab-shepherd mix we named Delta Burke. We were on our way to Oklahoma City, where my husband, Nate, would be on assignment for three months, and had rented an Airbnb with a large backyard for her to roam. The kind stranger who would serve as Delta’s death vet gave us five minutes to say goodbye. The author's dog, Delta.
