MAGA influencers like Ben Shapiro and Charlie Kirk pretend Taylor Swift is turning into a tradwife, to manipulate their incel audiences.

In reality, her engagement to Travis Kelce reflects feminist values — and could even be called a feminist fantasy.

Taylor Swift is not the tradwife you're looking for
MAGA influencers can't be normal about anything

Reposting mostly for the best footnote I've seen all week, but this is a great novella and I recommend it to anyone who likes some Spooky Forest Bullshit (complimentary).
HAPPY FRIDAY it is uhhhh a good Friday for some of us and less good for others* but PERHAPS it is a good day to buy the multi-award-nominated, critically-acclaimed THE BUTCHER OF THE FOREST! :D

Recently I realized that Smartfood white cheddar popcorn, the snack of snacks, did not taste as good as it used to. Was it me? Please accept my mad investigation into the recipe www.eater.com/24394718/sma...

Screenwriting pro-tip: put a specific date in your script so that once a year the internet meme machine will promote your movie for free.
(It helps if the rest of your script is as brilliant as Hot Fuzz, Miss Congeniality, or Mean Girls)

I'm very much still catching up on 2024 short fiction, but I have my first magazine review of 2025 ready to go, and there were a couple tremendous novelettes to start the year www.tarvolon.com/2025/01/17/t...
Tar Vol Reads a Magazine (or Two): Reviews of Clarkesworld and GigaNotoSaurus (January 2025) - Tar Vol on
The January 2025 issue of Clarkesworld has fewer stories than usual, mostly because the 5,000-8,000 word sweet spot is entirely absent, with the issue instead

A month or so ago I saw a post by someone saying "we should all admit that Neil Gaiman has always been a shitty writer." That whole knee jerk revisionism. No, man, that's part of the whole horror. He's an internationally recognized writer. Objectively a good writer. But he's also a fucking monster.
