I just subscribed to Culture Study because AHP's writing has helped make me feel less alone throughout the past 2.5 years & I'm so grateful to her. I don't know why I waited to so long but I'm glad I finally did 🙂annehelen.substack.com/?r=w3ni&utm_me…


Thanks @taylorswift13 for spending 673 minutes with me in 2022. I couldn’t stop listening to Lavender Haze 💜🎉 #SpotifyWrapped open.spotify.com/artist/06HL4z0…

What is going on with Ticketmaster is an example of why we need strong antitrust enforcement! Monopolies wreak havoc on consumers and our economy. When there is no competition to incentivize better services and fair prices, we all suffer the consequences.

I’m thinking about how a mom ran in and got her own kid, even after being handcuffed. I’m thinking about how the subway shooter was found by ordinary people. I’m thinking about how every dollar we give cops takes money from communities and gives it to guys who don’t protect us.

If I didn’t know better, I’d say books about racism and the lgbt folks are not the biggest threat to school kids.


Could not agree more. Truth is stranger than fiction, etc. Definitely recommend watching!

Finally saw the @Netflix film “Don’t Look Up,” a fictional tale of a Nation distracted by pop-culture and divided on whether to heed dire warnings of scientists. Everything I know about news-cycles, talk shows, social media, & politics tells me the film was instead a documentary

63 studies: women who assert their ideas, make direct requests, and advocate for themselves are liked less. They're also less likely to get hired—and it hasn't improved over time. It's 2021. When will we stop punishing dominant women for violating outdated gender stereotypes?
