What It Feels Like at Cornell Right Now

As a professor at the Ivy League school, Kate Manne has known many, many victims. There’s a palpable feeling on campus, she writes, that this is big.

Saw someone say that the first trailer was Nathan Fielder and Elizabeth Holmes in a bottom-lip-off but based on this second trailer, I think it’s a battle of the froggy-voiced

I like watching “boyfriend’s/husband’s first facial” videos on TikTok. Men allow themselves so few sensual experiences outside of sex (or sports) so it’s nice to see them learn the power of non-sexual touch

The various algorithms are so aggressive now, I don’t even like engaging anything on social media any more. Just because I liked one post does not mean I want the rest of my doomscroll to be usurped by the subject at hand (Unless it’s men saying “yes, ma’am.” Gimme alladet)

There are endless studies showing this and also the financial and societal benefits of universal basic income and or housing-first policies but the U.S. never goes for any of it because it would require allowing the poor to receive benefits that the rich consider “undeserved”

Bessie Smith. Tina Turner. Dolly Parton. Tennessee women who walked down dirt roads to show you how to embrace and protect who you really are and not who they want you to be.

One of the great parts about growing up as a Gen Xer was Dolly Parton was EVERYWHERE when we were kids. She was on the radio, showing up on television, in great movies. And no one was ever like "You know who I'm fucking sick of? That Dolly Parton." A glorious time to be alive.

If you’re into Jeaniene Frost (Night Huntress series), she has a new “romantasy” called A Curse of Beasts and Magic. It’s pretty much still urban fantasy but I guess the publisher wanted to cash in on the title & cover trend 🤷🏾‍♀️

As anyone in publishing will tell you, women do not resist reading books by men, but men will often dismiss books by women. This is not a publishing problem or a failure to target men. It's a misogyny problem.

There is a funny movie lurking at the edges of SPLASH, and sometimes it even sneaks on screen and makes us smile. It's too bad the relentlessly conventional

Thursday evening, I re-joined a couple of dating apps. One match recognized me from the bookshelves of his late wife; and I’ve already blocked one guy who kept telling me how good I look for my age. I am 49. He is 38.

When Joseph Williams refused to leave the public park where he has lived for years, he was charged with a felony for camping and spent nine days in jail. He's from East Nashville, a historically Black community that has rapidly gentrified over the last 2 decades and lost many of its Black residents

Sorry to be so whiny this week but whatever social media has done to make people worry that someone wearing the slightest hint of white will steal the bride’s thunder, fix it! If MeeMaw in her Sunday florals will distract from you, that ain’t got nothing to do with etiquette
