The Future of OK Doomer

I’m taking it into my own hands. — Last year, I launched a Substack newsletter in order to voice my inner thoughts about the biggest threats we face and the mindsets we need in order to move past passive hope and hopeless doom. …

Women Are Giving Up on Men and Retreating from Public Spaces

They’re tired of the aggression. — A woman goes to a coffee shop to do some work. Out of nowhere, a random dude shows up. He starts moving her stuff and putting his things on the table. When she asks what he’s doing, he says he’s just “testing how nice you are.” It’s a thing. Apparently…

More Than 50 Percent of Men Are Scared Women Will Find Them Creepy

There’s a simple solution. — “Hey, what about her?” It came from some dude, talking about my mom to one of his buddies. I was standing in line with her at the post office. I was eight. They leaned back and watched us. They started making comments about me. My mom told me to ignore…

Maybe You Don’t Have to Be Likable

I wish I’d figured it out sooner. — I remember my first attempt at small talk. I walked up to my kindergarten teacher and asked her what she was doing. She said, “What does it look like I’m doing?” Wow. Okay. I decided to leave her alone. For days, I tried to figure out what I’d done wrong…

You Don’t Have to Smile. You Don’t Have to Feel Happy.

You can just be. — There’s one thing a teenage girl can always count on, and it’s some rando telling them to smile. It happened to me all the time. One guy was fond of saying, “You look like a lost little kitten.” Every day, I looked forward to going home and listening to sad…

Millions of Lonely Young Men Are About to Get AI Girlfriends

It’s not a super great idea — Let’s face it, men aren’t doing so well. They’re having meltdowns when they find out their attractive coworkers already have boyfriends. They’re posting anime girls on their dating profiles, telling women not to bother contacting them unless they meet the standards of a cartoon. They’re falling behind in school. They’re…

Maybe You Don’t Need a Friend. Maybe You Need Something Else

On the lie of friendship — When my mom died, I didn’t want condolences. I didn’t want cards. I didn’t want phone calls. I didn’t want to stand around listening to everyone else talk about how much they missed their moms. I didn’t want to talk about it with anyone. I wanted to be left alone. …

“She’s Just Trying to Make Money”

Our toxic relationships with wealth. — I love history. In 1910, the U.S. federal government passed the White Slave Traffic Act. They did it in response to the rise of prostitution. Basically, women were selling their bodies in order to escape poverty and abuse. The government did almost nothing to address the actual circumstances leading to…

The Simple Trick to Getting a Great Night’s Sleep

It’s not that complicated. — It’s 1 am, maybe later. I’m tired, but I feel like I should be doing something. I feel like I haven’t earned the right to sleep. Maybe if I get a head start on tomorrow’s goals, I’ll finally feel like I deserve it. “I’ll relax later,” I say. Maybe you…

The Top 3 Reasons Why You’re Not That Successful

They’re not what you think. — Recently I found myself asking this question: “Why aren’t you more successful?” Everyone defines success in their own way, but most definitions have a few things in common. They share a degree of recognition and financial independence. Even if they talk about meaning and purpose, most of these people still…
