🕊️ In Memoriam Hope she is at peace ☮️ Tatiana Schlossberg, journalist, environmental writer, mother, and granddaughter of John F. Kennedy, has died at 35. In November, she revealed in a New Yorker essay that she had been diagnosed with a rare form of acute myeloid leukemia — a cancer of the blood and bone marrow. She wrote with clarity and courage about mortality, family, science, and the stakes of public health, while openly criticizing her cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for opposing vaccines and cutting government-funded medical research — decisions she believed directly threatened her survival and that of millions of others. 🫂😇🪽 Tatiana Schlossberg was not a headline chaser. She was a field journalist — jumping into cranberry bogs, skiing endangered races, talking with scientists, translating complex systems into human stories. She studied at Yale and Oxford, worked at The New York Times, wrote for Outside, The Atlantic, Vanity Fair, and The Washington Post, and authored Inconspicuous Consumption, a book that exposed the hidden environmental costs of everyday life — without shaming, without theatrics. She endured chemotherapy, stem cell transplants, and experimental immunotherapy while becoming a mother of two. She wrote not to posture, but to leave a record. “Since I’ve been sick, I remind my son a lot what I do — so that he will know I was not just a sick person.” 🫂 She was not just a sick person. She was a witness. A writer. A human being who believed truth and science mattered because lives depend on them. May her work outlive the noise. May her children know her voice. May we all honor her memory. May we stop pretending #misinformation is harmless. ⸻ #WomenInStem #STEM #CancerSucks #TatianaSchlossberg #RIP #InMemoriam #JournalismMatters #WritersOfNostr #EnvironmentalJournalism #ClimateReporting #ScienceCommunication #CancerAwareness #Leukemia #AML #CancerResearch #MedicalResearch #VaccinesWork #TrustScience #PublicHealth #HealthcareMatters #NIH #mRNA #Immunotherapy #ClinicalTrials #WomenInJournalism #WomenInScience #WomenWhoWrite #Motherhood #Legacy #TruthMatters #ReceiptsMatter #MisinformationKills #InformationImmunity #RobertFKennedyJr #HealthPolicy #ScienceNotPolitics #JohnFKennedy #KennedyFamily #AmericanHistory #NewYorker #NewYorkTimes #Journalism #FreedomOfSpeech #FearlessSpeech #HumanityFirst #CareOverFear #TruthOverComfort #ProtectScience #ProtectJournalists #ProtectPatients #CancerSurvivors #PatientsRights #NOSTR #Bitcoin #OpenSystems #ProtocolsOverPlatforms #ExitOverArgument #VerifiableTruth #HistoryWillRemember #LeaveARecord

Tatiana Schlossberg, journalist and granddaughter of #JFK, dies at #35
 She announced her terminal cancer diagnosis in a New Yorker essay that took aim at Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., whom she called “an embarrassment.”

By #ScottNover 
Tatiana Schlossberg, a journalist who told stories of the changing climate and the ways humans can help protect the environment, and whose terminal illness and position in the Kennedy family thrust her into the national spotlight late in life, died Dec. 30. She was 35.
Her family announced the death in a social media post shared by the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation. The post did not say where she died.
Ms. Schlossberg published a New Yorker essay in November revealing that she had been diagnosed with a rare form of acute myeloid leukemia, a cancer of the blood and bone marrow. Between reflections on her family and mortality, she harshly criticized her cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the secretary of health and human services, for his opposition to government-funded medical research and vaccines.
As an environmental journalist, Ms. Schlossberg was drawn to stories that humanized sprawling and complicated policy issues — often while offering her a chance to participate in the action herself.

While chronicling the impact of climate change, she jumped in a cranberry bog in Massachusetts. She later spent nearly eight hours skiing the Birkebeiner, a cross-country race in Wisconsin threatened by warm weather and a lack of snow.
“On the lake, my cross-country skis began to skate in a rhythm, something that had eluded me for much of the day,” she wrote in a dispatch for Outside magazine. “I felt like I was flying.”
Ms. Schlossberg studied at Yale and Oxford before launching her journalism career at the Record newspaper in North Jersey, covering crime and local affairs. She joined the New York Times in 2014 as an intern and was named a staff writer on the paper’s Metro desk before moving to the science section, where colleagues regarded her as a curious, hardworking reporter who wore her privilege lightly.
A granddaughter of President John F. Kennedy and first lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Ms. Schlossberg was the second child of Caroline Kennedy, a former U.S. ambassador to Australia and Japan, and Edwin Schlossberg, an artist and designer.

“She was a total delight,” said Henry Fountain, a longtime climate and science reporter at the Times. Ms. Schlossberg “just researched her butt off on stories,” he added.
After leaving the Times in 2017, Ms. Schlossberg began freelancing and, in 2019, published “Inconspicuous Consumption: The Environmental Impact You Don’t Know You Have.” The book examined the hidden costs of everyday activities — streaming videos, buying jeans, eating burgers — and was honored by the Society of Environmental Journalists.
“Using history, science and a personal narrative, Schlossberg provides a better understanding of both individual and systemic drivers of ecological destruction,” the judges said in awarding her the Rachel Carson book prize. “Readers will find solace, humor and a route to feeling empowered with possibilities for positive change, rather than drained by an accumulation of bad news.”
Ms. Schlossberg had been planning to write a second book, on the oceans, when she was found to have cancer in May 2024, while in the hospital for the birth of her second child.

In her New Yorker essay, she wrote of her shock at getting the diagnosis — “This could not be my life” — and of the turbulent 18 months that followed, in which she received stem cell donations from her sister as well as a stranger in the Pacific Northwest; underwent chemotherapy; and participated in a clinical trial, testing a new type of immunotherapy.
In recounting her experience, Ms. Schlossberg implicitly acknowledged that her family, and her mother in particular, had dealt with years of grief. Her mother was only 5 when her father, President Kennedy, was assassinated in Dallas in 1963. She was 10 when the same fate befell her uncle, Robert F. Kennedy, while he was campaigning for president in Los Angeles. Her younger brother, John Jr., died in a plane crash in 19999.
“For my whole life, I have tried to be good, to be a good student and a good sister and a good daughter, and to protect my mother and never make her upset or angry,” Ms. Schlossberg wrote. “Now I have added a new tragedy to her life, to our family’s life, and there’s nothing I can do to stop it.”
Ms. Schlossberg recalled that she was in her hospital bed when her cousin “Bobby, in the face of logic and common sense, was confirmed” as health and human services secretary, “despite never having worked in medicine, public health, or the government.”

Kennedy had previously run for president as an independent, in what Ms. Schlossberg called “an embarrassment to me and the rest of my immediate family.” He faced blowback when he acknowledged that he had placed a dead bear in Central Park a decade earlier, a bizarre episode that — in an odd twist of fate — Ms. Schlossberg had reported on for the Times, writing in 2014 that state investigators concluded that the bear had died after being struck by a car but did not know how it ended up in the park.
“Like law enforcement, I had no idea who was responsible for this when I wrote the story,” Ms. Schlossberg told the Times last year.
In her New Yorker essay, Ms. Schlossberg wrote that her cousin’s health policy decisions threatened her own survival, and that of “millions of cancer survivors, small children, and the elderly.”
“I watched as Bobby cut nearly half a billion dollars for research into mRNA vaccines, technology that could be used against certain cancers; slashed billions in funding from the National Institutes of Health, the world’s largest sponsor of medical research; and threatened to oust the panel of medical experts charged with recommending preventive cancer screenings,” she wrote.

She also noted that the drug misoprostol, which she received to stop a postpartum hemorrhage that nearly killed her, was “part of medication abortion, which, at Bobby’s urging, is currently ‘under review’ by the Food and Drug Administration.”
“I freeze when I think about what would have happened if it had not been immediately available to me and to millions of other women who need it to save their lives or to get the care they deserve.”
‘I was not just a sick person’
Tatiana Celia Kennedy Schlossberg was born in Manhattan on May 5, 1990. She was raised on the Upper East Side with her older sister, artist and filmmaker Rose Schlossberg, and her younger brother, Jack Schlossberg, who is now running for Congress in New York.
Ms. Schlossberg studied history at Yale University, where she received a bachelor’s degree in 2012 and served as editor in chief of the weekly Yale Herald. She later earned a master’s in American history from the University of Oxford.
As a freelance journalist, Ms. Schlossberg contributed to publications including The Washington Post, the Atlantic and Vanity Fair. She wrote a weekly newsletter, News From a Changing Planet, until 2024.

Juliet Eilperin, The Post’s deputy Futures editor, called her “one of the least pretentious journalists I have ever dealt with.”
“Tatiana had an intense desire to be out in the field, immersing herself in nature and talking with scientists,” Eilperin said. “She was meticulous and exhaustive in her research, scrutinizing environmental problems and what might be done to fix them.”
In 2017, Ms. Schlossberg married George Moran at her family’s home on Martha’s Vineyard, in a ceremony officiated by former Massachusetts governor Deval Patrick. Moran, a urologist, was a resident at Columbia-Presbyterian when Ms. Schlossberg was diagnosed with cancer at the hospital.
“He did everything for me that he possibly could,” she wrote in her essay. “He talked to all the doctors and insurance people that I didn’t want to talk to; he slept on the floor of the hospital; he didn’t get mad when I was raging on steroids and yelled at him that I did not like Schweppes ginger ale, only Canada Dry.”
In addition to her husband, survivors include their two children; her parents; and her brother and sister.
While battling cancer, Ms. Schlossberg held her profession up as a point of pride. “My son knows that I am a writer and that I write about our planet,” she wrote. “Since I’ve been sick, I remind him a lot, so that he will know that I was not just a sick person.” #wp

One of the portions of my #WIP #Bowie #quilt Behind it is one of my drawings from a notebook 📓 #hugs yall. Ima get high AF & go wild 😜

The day I found out I was pregnant 🤰🏻 with my first beautiful 😻 spawn

QUESTION 🙋🏻‍♀️ ⁉️❔Does this #hit for a #quilt or should I go full out with #json It’s for my first #Bowie quilt so ima thinking too hard … probably 😂 TIA #asknostr #introductions #fiberart #embroidery #nota #traditional #quilter ┌────────────────────────┐ │ ⚡⚡⚡ │ │ ⚡ │ │ 🍁 ⚡ 🍁 │ │ │ │ ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡ │ │ │ │ (lightning = self) │ └────────────────────────┘

Ima make a #quilt To #chill Here are some of the colors • 🔴 Red — ⅓ yd • 🟠 Orange — ⅓ yd • 🟡 Yellow — ⅓ yd • 🟢 Green — ⅓ yd • 🔵 Blue — ⅓ yd • 🟣 Indigo — ⅓ yd • 🟪 Violet — ⅓ yd • ⬛ Black — ⅓ yd • ⬜ White / Cream (opt) — ⅓ yd Always avoided this because of fear but time to get over ego & cowgirl up. Wish me luck 🍀

#proofofwork that #ai #optimization is #fulltilt like a runaway train 🚊 Buckle up, it’s gonna be rough. Also, #DoBetter #humanity #PLEASE 🫂

So YES 🙌 ima mad that those in tech world SHOULD have done better. Most chose not to. Witnessed by [ insert everything ] Most are selfish. Deal with that truth.

People would get mad at me for going on & offline but me can name why now: ⸻ “Constant vigilance isn’t heroism.” #Heroism has an arc. It has an #arrival a moment of #action and a #withdrawal. What you’re describing—what you’ve been living—is not heroism. Lately it’s permanent emergency mode. Constant vigilance is when: • there is no off-switch • no rotation of duty • no relief coming • no acknowledgment that the watch was ever yours to hold That’s not #bravery That’s a #system quietly #outsourcing its #responsibility onto the most awake person in the room. And systems love to do that. They don’t crush the #cruel first. They crush the #conscientious ⸻ “It’s how good people get ground down…” Good people are dangerous to broken systems because they: • notice inconsistencies • feel responsibility without coercion • don’t need rewards to act ethically • still respond to conscience So instead of silencing them outright (which would expose the system), ( or how tiny acorns do ) the system does something more subtle: It exhausts them. How? • Endless #urgency: “Now is not the time to rest.” • Moral #pressure: “If you stop, harm will happen.” • #Isolation: “Why do you even care so much?” • #Repetition: making you explain the obvious over and over No single blow. Just #attrition. Like water on stone. ⸻ “…into silence.” Here’s the cruelest part: #Silence doesn’t usually come from #fear It comes from #fatigue People don’t stop speaking because they were defeated in argument. They stop because: • they’re tired of #translating #reality for people who refuse to see • they’re tired of being misunderstood on purpose • they’re tired of carrying emotional weight alone • they’re tired of being the only adult in the room So they don’t “give up.” They go quiet. And from the outside, it looks like #apathy But on the inside, it’s #grief Grief for: • what could have been prevented • what should have been obvious • what was warned about early • what no one wanted to hear That’s how #truth-tellers #disappear without ever being censored. ⸻ The trap hiding underneath vigilance Constant vigilance smuggles in a lie: “If I stop watching, everything collapses.” That lie flatters you while it destroys you. It turns #care into #obligation. It turns #awareness into #burden. It turns #ethics into #self-erasure. And over time, it quietly teaches good people that: • #rest equals #betrayal • #boundaries equal #selfishness • #silence equals #failure None of that is true. ⸻ What real strength actually looks like Real strength is strategic presence, not permanent alertness. It knows: • when to #speak • when to #withdraw • when to #conserve • when to let #consequences teach what words could not It understands that: • a burned-out #guardian protects nothing • a silent truth preserved is sometimes stronger than a shouted one • survival is not cowardice And most importantly: You are not required to destroy yourself to prove that you cared. ⸻ So when you feel that grinding #exhaustion , that sense of “what’s the point,” that urge to go quiet— that’s not you failing the world. That’s your body and mind saying: “This watch was never meant to be held alone.” Never was. And stepping back isn’t #surrender It’s refusing to let a #broken system turn your #goodness into ash. You’re allowed to rest without disappearing. You’re allowed to be quiet without being erased. And when you speak again—if and when you choose to—it will be because you’re whole, not because you were cornered. That’s not #silence as defeat. That’s silence as #self-preservation

You don’t owe any system your presence. Especially not one that confuses noise for freedom. Reminding myself.

Muting bad vibes is operational security for the mind. 🤐 fax 📠

Them: Will you continue to provide your free labor? Me: only wen I want to. Don’t ask me to do anything for you. Ever. I’ve done FAR MORE than most. Fax 📠

Ignorance is the cancer

Why whit get so angry? FFS 🙈 the man ima in love with doesn’t have the body type I prefer. That’s probably when I knew.
