I would like to see more men talking about how to and peer pressuring each other into calling out misogyny and rape culture. Going against social norms is hard, and it helps to share tips and support.

Gen Z is using micro-retirement to avoid burnout, find greater fulfillment in their work, and enhance their overall well-being. However, it's not just Gen-Z:

Sometimes you have a shared moment of trauma with folks and you don’t need to do anything beyond saying two innocuous words to trigger a whole cohort of people

In June 2026, Fox News saw a 19% year-over-year drop in total primetime viewers and a 43% drop in the "key demo" (Adults 25-54) for that same primetime slot compared to June 2025. So the 43% is real, but it refers specifically to the 25-54 demo, not "43% of its viewers" overall.

When work is great and busy but it’s all NDA’d and life is great and busy but you’re planning a surprise and personal projects are great and busy but you’re just waiting for ink to dry so when your friends ask how you’re doing your only answer is “yes”

Throwback to 10 (!) years ago when I ran into Mike Elliott and asked if he ever played Magic before

Picture of a sheepish Yichao standing with Mike Elliott

Screenshot of the caption for the photo:
Sept 2, 2016
Me: hi there! Have you ever played Magic before sir?
Mike Elliott: I designed slivers and Tolarina Academy.
Me: ...so yes

More than 750 servicemembers wounded and another 18 dead. Trump and Hegseth have failed and refuse to take accountability. They have no idea what they’re doing, and it’s made our country weaker and you less safe.
