How Can He Go Back?
Curated by

The first story is a tough read, putting you in the shoes of a student during a school shooting and his quest to get back on the diving board after the trauma. You will be rooting for Keegan and in tears at the end. For lighter fare, go to the entertaining essay about the Gone Girl cruise or the piece about nerd culture’s attachment to Clippy. I also just learned that you shouldn’t cut the top of your pumpkin if you want it to last longer and that sandwiches made by someone else taste better.
