In the age of Andrew Tate and toxic masculinity, we should encourage heterosexual teenage boys to explore their “feminine side.”
I’m not sure exactly what I mean by feminine, maybe you have a better word.
But I think if they try seeing the world differently, they will become better adults.

Boys dressing up as a woman, a popular Halloween costume of my youth, is banned now at Ontario schools, because it is seen as offensive to trans people.
But if we could find a respectful way to do it, I think it would be healthy for boys in this hyper masculine age to try on another gender.

Listening to the Blue Jays reminds me that baseball is the sport best suited to listening on the radio.
It is easy to create a mental picture, because there is a single focal point of action which resets every play, unlike sports like hockey or soccer with multiple simultaneous contests. 1/2

So many have been baffled by Trump‘s obsession with tariffs.
Tariffs is the economic system by which he can gain the greatest power and influence.
It’s that simple.
Trump is only interested in personal power. His deal to his constituents: give me power over you, I’ll give you power over others.
