Hello everyone! Normally, on Sundays I publish Many Such Takes, my weekly free roundup of the most unhinged stuff on Twitter, but this week is a bit different, mostly because the only thing anyone is talking about right now is tariffs, and well, I covered that yesterday:
You Will Own Nothing, Except The Libs
I don’t normally publish new content on Saturdays, but I kinda had to do this one. Bear with me, because instead of removing a previous paywall today as is the tradition, I will be doing that tomorrow and linking it in Many Such Takes. But anyway, today I need to write about, uhhh, this:
Free Article of the Week
You might be wondering what the free article of the week is, since I didn’t reveal it yesterday as was the plan. So this week, I decided to make my article about age gap relationships free. This is an old one you might not have seen floating around before, so enjoy!
Why Doesn't Hillary Clinton Have a 25 Year Old Boyfriend?
Perhaps you’ve started your Tuesday by finishing up some heads-down tasks at work, grabbing a cup of coffee, or playing with your children. But most likely, the entire time you were thinking what I know everyone thinks about from the moment they wake up to the moment they fall asleep at night:
Survey Opportunities
As
and I put the finishing touches on the men’s fashion survey (thank you all for your patience) I would love it if you could take some of the currently open surveys, in order of urgency/importance:Birth Rates Survey, open to all Americans over 18. You do not need to want/have kids to fill this out, it’s for absolutely everyone! Fill it out here. I want to write about the results early next week so this one is the most important!
Parenting Risk Assessment Survey, open to all American parents who at one point have had decision-making authority over a child’s upbringing (including if that child is now an adult) Fill it out here.
Relationship History Survey, available to all Americans over 18. Fill that out here.
Reddit Relationship Advice Survey, available to anyone of any country who has at any point asked Reddit for relationship advice. Fill that out here.
In Case You Missed It…
This week, I wrote about lots of stuff. I wrote about fashion. I wrote about social media. I defended millennial fathers. Last week, I wrote about OCD manifesting as hypochondria, and the week before that, I wrote about my belief that sex doesn’t need to be empowering or degrading. If you’re a new subscriber, rest assured there will always be something for you, even if the article of the day isn’t. So hopefully, you’ll stick around. I’m glad you’re here!
I don't think of myself as a particularly permissive parent, but every single item in the risk survey (with the important exceptions of social media, boyfriends, and one or two of the swimming scenarios) are "risks" that I have happily exposed my own children to.
Is this an Xennial thing?
You will never be a woman.
