Real talk. It’s not easy, and what has helped me is realizing that many other millennial parents feel the same level of anxiety. It’s very much a “take it one day at a time” kind of thing. We millennial parents are also breaking generational cycles!

if it's been a lot, parenting through the rise of climate-change awareness; and during COVID; and during government capture by racist authoritarian eugenicists--if, maybe, that's been a lot and you have been working hard to try to mitigate what you can, for your kids and their friends -- 1/3

Women really just aren’t angry enough. We played by the rules then once we get good at the game, they change the rules & turn all of our previous assets into liabilities. The goal posts are constantly being moved. The game is rigged against us by the bros that be. I’m tired of playing their game.

Unless a podcast is hosted by a journalist, it’s not journalism! I thought this was obvious These many podcasts (including but not exclusive to Call Her Daddy) are the interview equivalent of a late-night talk show appearance. A lotta talk, maybe some amusing anecdotes, but no real substance!

Reply to post: All of this outlines what I dislike about podcast-era journalism. No one wants to challenge their subjects anymore because they want access and views. Popular podcasters aren't trained journalists and even journalists don't want to risk being blacklisted.

also want to be super clear that i am not saying You Must Listen To Will, who again i do not personally follow. you don't have to listen to Will! and in fact your life could be enriched if you, instead of being shitty to him, just blocked him and thought about something else instead.
