Does anyone read or have any recommendations for lit mags or journals? (Like McSweeneys or Granta)

Maybe this is too obvious to mention, but I recently started subscribing to the New York Review of Books. It's ultra-establishment, but also very good.

double wow. between the fact that I've matured in the five or so years since the last issue and henry o's horrible calls to the best show, I no longer enjoy this magazine.

I wish I could find a good magazine to subscribe to, but I usually just end up reading the bass fishing ones at the barber shop.

New Yorker. It's cheap but good.

Also, TapeOp is free if you like home recording (wondering why I didn't think of this sooner for this forum):

Some excellent interviews but tons of ads and is hit or miss. I think last issue was Sufjan Stevens.

I read Booth magazine, which is for the voiceover community.

The Missouri Review is a really good, underrated literary journal, and not just cuz I worked there my senior year in college. But mostly cuz of that.

I like to read Fortean Times, even though it is really expensive.
Sounds like someone was working as a conduit for nature's natural vengeance.  Just like Jesus.  And some of the others.

Journal of Infectious Diseases, Cosmopolitan, and Time. Wow, but Time is really a great magazine! I love the little graphs they use.

Tin House is awesome.  The Paris Review and Conjunctions are also often very good.  n+1 is more commentary than fiction, and Yeti is kinda like WFMU distilled into a journal, but both are great and usually publish at least one story per issue.  And then there's One Story, which is what is sounds like, but usually it's a pretty good story.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

Lately I've been trying to get a handle on the conservative mindset so I check out the National Review online. http://www.nationalreview.com/

Also at one time I thought I might qualify as a libertarian (turns out I do not); Reason online is fun to read when it's not totally infuriating. http://www.reason.com/
