What is the etiquette here, should women be posting sad-looking photos so that the media can illustrate their murder with the appropriate emotional tone?
If my husband murdered me and you used a smiling photo of us from our wedding to announce my murder, i would personally haunt you for all eternity.

Here is how I would look if my husband murdered me. Here’s the stranger-murder pic. Here’s the car accident death. Here’s the lung cancer…

Law professor Josh Blackman called the NYT out on politically labeling conservatives more often than liberals, and editor Patrick Healy acknowledged he was right: “It can come off like The Times treats liberals as normal and conservatives as unique and worthy of labeling.”

Spoiler ycse So it’s not the norm for documentary subjects to get paid??? I can’t imagine committing to that sort of time expenditure & incredibly intrusive filming, with no control over the product, and not getting compensated at all

Sounds pretty unnatural to avoid sex during ovulation!
Anyone else feel like NFP (natural family planning) is just a cop out? It takes Talmudic levels of legalistic, semantic pedantry to justify it as not being a form of contraception.

I can't stand the unpredictability of taxi fares
Public service announcement to everyone visiting DCA or BOS airports. Cabs are usually faster and often cheaper than rideshare. The only downside is that most still don't use GPS, which is a drag.

Possibly the difference between those who focus on nutrition and those who don't is about people who are sensitive to small differences in how they feel, maybe because they're already tracking that due to chronic illness—and maybe they're correct about how Food ABC makes them feel, maybe it's all placebo! I'm very insensitive to this, possibly because I've never actually reduced my diet to such simplicity that i would notice a change in one ingredient "How did I feel? Sometimes good and sometimes bad, in ways I could sometimes connect to food and sometimes couldn’t."
At some point I noticed that more and more people seemed to be telling me: everything you think you know about food is wrong. This led me down a rabbit hole that I’ve come to think of as “dark nutrition.” I wrote about this whole world for @NYTmag nytimes.com/2026/10/21/magaz…

Some families give all of their kids names starting with the same letter. Even better…everyone, husband wife and kids, has the same first syllable! Childebert, you ruined it 😠

There are actually lovely nooks at Slutcon where you can read poetry and classic literature
heavy sigh.. men would fare better reading poetry and classic literature women ask yourself: would you want the father of your potential children to have learned how to talk to women at ::check notes:: slutcon?

did you think “monogamy” meant monogamy
i'd estimate like ~20% of long-term marriages in public-facing duos have cheating happening rn, this is not really that surprising

"pharmapseudicals" thank you
What goes on at an NYC peptide party? Cyborgs, Slutclouds, sex peptides, microchips in people's hands. We sent @DenzelRust to find out... mamathemagazine.com/what-hap…

“Not to be presumptuous, but do you want to take these sex peptides?” it's not a bad line although on priors I doubt any aphrodisiac works equally for men & women

Talked to a guy about his job for a good while and the thing he seemed most excited about is that there's occasionally free food. Dude makes 300k+, he can afford food, why is it so much more exciting when it's free?

Personally free food is a negative. It's not going to be good or healthy, but human nature being what it is, I will eat it and then feel worse as a result. I'd rather have my tin of leftovers
