it is endlessly frustrating how diffuse all the good literary criticism is these. And I know this is a substack, which also really sucks, but it's a weekly column for Harper's Bazaar by Kaitlyn Greenidge, and I'd read anything she writes.

Help combat toxic masculinity by making sure the men in your life know that talking about your feelings is not only okay, but is healthy and encouraged. Life isn't a competition. Your masculinity should not be determined by society. Break the cycle.
Today is the day to repost this meme about International Men's Day, one of the most unironically wholesome memes that has ever been made.

Shoutout to all my fellow champs, chiefs, and kings. ✊

This thread is spot on.
there is actually a story in this revolting Nuzzi piece if you sandblast away the lies about a hot young woman being "in love" with a guy old enough to be her grandfather who looks like a catcher's mitt and sounds like an evil muppet

Just gonna remind people that Libre office exists and isn't that bad, honestly
If, like me, you let Microsoft update in the last 24 hours and discovered they've found a new way to shoehorn in a Copilot icon that just... sits there, watching... You can uninstall Word and install the version from Nov 4th or earlier: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office...

Not enough people are grappling with this.

You are talking about a nation where some people hate age of consent laws, abuse exists openly in some religious sects & covered up by many institutions, Benny Mardones is still played on the radio and companies literally used to use this in advertising:

A lot of the times, we know what we need to do and what the answer is. We're just too in our own way to see it/do anything about it
