I'm guessing Geoff hasn't complained about the books with the names "Dr. Phil McGraw" or "Dr. Mehmet Oz" on the cover.
Why is Vintage publishing her book with “Dr” in the byline? Because the book’s marketing is tied to her being an internet main character of the day so her name on the cover has to allude to this? Weird things are happening in publishing.

This dude thinks he needs to weigh in on what name Ally should be called, since her government name is something other than Ally and it's honestly just the cherry on top of me being sick of petty men who only feel good about themselves when shaming women for one reason or another

Pod cast bro challenge: If you are one of the progressive men who hosts a political podcast (65% of them are), dedicate an entire episode to the sexism, harassment and assault women in America are subjected to. If you are a male political podcast guest (close to 70% of them are), bring this topic up when you’re being interviewed. Live your progressive values; don’t ask women to do this work for and among you.

I'm not engaging with anon accounts or replying to baiting replies on any of my posts here. My lack of engagement with any particular reply should not be read as agreement or affirmation. Rather, I'm done amplifying trolls, bots and other disingenuous accounts.

I'm deleting this tweet, screenshot below, because I'm not clear that this actually IS the law due to what some are calling a loophole. I stand by the fact that you should never, ever have sex with a heavily intoxicated person.

People out here acting like you can casually be on ketamine and not be intellectually incapacitated. Guys, this isn't a Coors Lite. It's literally a dissociative anesthetic, by definition. What are you all playing at here? dea.gov/factsheets/ketamine

I knew it wouldn’t take long for people to start saying this. Here are the problems with Robby’s position. First, we don’t know what was in the initial police report. All we know is what the DA says and he’s clearly trying to cover his ass since this is getting so much publicity. Second, Cornell released a statement way back in 2024 saying someone had been coerced into using ketamine and was sexually assaulted by several boys. They certainly knew that this was a rape situation and were not at all confused. Third, we know that women don’t always report everything immediately for a variety of reasons. She says she made it very clear but in the middle of everything that happened to her maybe she didn’t go as far as she should’ve with each detail for fear of repercussions or being called a whore for going to the frat house? The larger point is this is what men do. We don’t believe victims and we try to poke holes in their stories. This stops when we start listening to women and stop trying to defend shitty men.

I want promising young men to have strong futures and hold positions of power. Promising young men are NOT the ones who assault women. So let's hold people accountable for their actions and get the scum out of the way so REAL men & women of promise can hold positions of authority

If frats in America are going to continue to exist, they need to start getting ahead of all of this - once again - and be the ones LEADING the charge in stopping rape and SA on campuses.

Regarding Cornell: Does anyone know who took the photo of the group chat? A whistleblower within the frat or someone who snuck a look at the chat?

A must read: post-divorce, author Curtis Sittenfeld revisits a 2015 essay she wrote after the Supreme Court’s decision to legalize same-sex unions: “Several friends have told me I’m the only middle-aged divorced woman they know who still dates men.” nytimes.com/2026/09/28/opini…

If you're torn on how to feel abt the lesbian bar mask policy disability debate, I urge you to read this evidence-based primer on the data behind daily masking (almost nobody needs to do it), Covid rates/mortality & whether not masking is ableist. gidmk.substack.com/p/the-las…

TLDR: -Covid is rarely deadly for young ppl w/o very specific immunological disorders (for whom influenza is just as deadly). -You still don't want Covid, just like you don't want flu -Masking might be smart during the height of flu season -Masking is kind if you're sick

I don't mask unless I'm already sick and going to the doctor I always masked in the Children's Hospital cardiac unit when I took my kid there for annual appointments. Many VERY vulnerable kids are there on a daily basis. I mask in the doctor's waiting room in flu season.
