"Ranch Overemotional"? Huh.

This is really indescribably horrifying.

Sometimes I think about how we briefly rebranded slacking off as "quiet quitting" and anyway I think we just didn't have enough to worry about back then.

Since the headline is a bit confusing, the NYT is reporting that on the same day we hit the girl's school in Minab, we also sent a missile full of tungsten steel pellets at a girl's volleyball tournament hundreds of miles away in Lamerd. Twenty one dead. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/29/w...

I am looking to interview a trans athlete who self identifies as not that good at their sport but enjoys it anyway. Is that you? HMU!

Ok but here's the thing: I defy any of you to succinctly define "millennial feminism." Declaring the death of it means that's what you wanted in the first place. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
