over the past year I repeatedly asked “what would a hotter version of me do?” and then did it. this worked really well, but I’ve slowed down lately. round two, let’s go.

Kaveh Akbar, from “Calling a Wolf a Wolf (Inpatient)”
still life disaster
if I meet u at a party I will often hand you my phone and say something like “this is a list of names for girls. please read through and then add one.” the list is special because you can only add to it in person; I won’t add something that you tell me about over text. however, I think it’s okay for me to share it here. without further ado, I present: girl names (names for girls)
This was an interesting read. Surprisingly nonpreachy given the subject; and well worth the time.
This is oaywalled but it made me weep with relief to see an honest recounting for once, so I’ve saved some good bits:
I think about the best diary entry ever.
Walking into a room full of friends and going “Hey guys I was thinking about succumbing to nostalgia and building my politics around a mythologized idyllic past filled with heroic martyrs who die for their Wifes” and they all tackle me to the ground like I just brought a lit cigarette to an oil rig
Walking back into the room with a cast and going “Hey guys, sorry, I dunno what came over me. I dunno how I keep forgetting that the people of the past were unwashed beasts with nothing of import to offer us” and getting tackled by a somewhat separate group (there’s overlap)

The Barbie movie probably would have been better if they replaced the part where she says, “Do you guys ever think about dying?” with a part where she says, “Do you guys ever think about how Pepsi was originally called Brad’s Drink?” and then it fades to black and The Cabin in the Woods (2011) starts playing in its entirety, but I can’t be sure because I never saw Barbie.
