Let's Talk About Parasocial Relationships and Parasocial Communities
liy: deep voice and speaks slowly, defines what it is and includes signs that a parasocial relationship has gone too far(“I do think if you could shift that energy to somebody that you do know in real life, that could help you build a relationship with them… could you use that energy to send things to someone that might send you things back?”), parasocial concern vs hate disguised as concern, intense fandoms who can encourage your parasocial attention and discourage change or valid critique, how social media lowers barrier of entry and the dangers of everyone having a platform, weaponising parasocial relationships through scamming micro-fandoms

Matt Rife, The Patriarchy Won't Save You
Shanspeare (45:00). liy: no need to know who matt rife is before jumping in. this is the essay if you want a compassionate and deep unpacking of the American masculinity crisis (which also influences men elsewhere). Shanspeare gives a historical look at the dangerous pipeline men have been shackled to since they were children designed to frustrate them into misogyny, self-loathing rage and violence. Great dress. And stay for the fire comment Nikki Giovanni made re: the limitations of James Baldwin’s imagination.
