I have a lot to say about the resurgent young men / masculinity discourse but for now will confine myself to:
I wish I knew how to convince teenage boys/young men is how little of the world actually requires or even invites the hypermisogynist "tough guy" aesthetic

Anyone who played The Last Of Us Part 2 and didn’t ruin the big reveal for the people watching the show is better at keeping secrets than the Secretary of Defense.

I’ve decided that millennial aspirations peaked with the song “You and I” by Ingrid Michaelson and it’s been all downhill ever since.

If anyone on here is on or knows anyone on the Josh Weil campaign, y'all need to stop right tf now with these sad-sack text messages. Nothing says "I've learned absolutely nothing from the campaigns of the past year" than continuing to blow up our phones with "Hey Friend" fundraising texts. Stop.

The horrors of this past week reminded me how batshit insane some of the anti-Dem rhetoric online during the election was, and upon reflection I think this was really a stand out performance from Bree.

Shutting down medical research — not just within NIH, but everywhere that’s funded by NIH — will have long-term effects on medicine & short-term effects on state, higher education & hospital budgets. This affects all of us, not just researchers.
The assault on NIH is a test for how the national media covers the Trump admin: Trump is shutting down medical research!
That is easy to communicate. Will they treat it as a 5 alarm fire in a way that forces the government to respond, or will they downplay & caveat it?

First post on here, so I’ll make it two comments that I feel continuously hold true, especially now:

And
Right wing political violence only leads to more right wing political violence.
