I spent the last year writing a book about the ridiculous demands of what it means to be masculine. But a guy who takes care of people who served our country, asks a woman “are you ok?” When she is in distress and looks out for his vulnerable neighbors seems like a pretty good role model for a man.

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

Robert Langdon is shaken to his core, by the strangest thing he’s ever seen: indoor skydiving. When the skydiver gives him a thumbs up, our dude can’t believe it. Doesn’t she realize that it’s an ancient fertility gesture?

I’d always heard people didn’t like Kamelion and wondered why. I finally viewed his first appearance and had a visceral reaction of disgust. Holy uncanny valley. Why is his head so small? Why does he have nipples? What’s going on with his eyes?

Every @backxwash.bsky.social album has been an exciting build, showcasing her talent and power, and now Only Dust Remains stuns. Emotional refusal to shy away from the rot, of society’s proliferating ills such as white supremacy and transphobia, or the personal doom of depression. Heavy beauty.
