With all the cringey incels and men's rights activists making themselves known both online and IRL, it's understandable to worry about toxic masculinity maintaining its grip on future generations. Many of my friends who have kids worry about bullying, bigotry, addiction, school shootings, and dangerous internet challenges. The world wide web has made many of these problems more prevalent. There's no way around it: being a parent is scary. Beyond those celebrities doing charity and making Instag…

Things are not looking good for the programmers at Twitter right now. Apparently, Elon Musk know absolutely nothing about coding. Who could've guessed? One Twitter engineer claimed “ I can confirm that Elon Musk doesn’t understand anything about our website, or coding in general. Not gonna lie, we laugh REALLY hard about it behind his back. We’ve been calling him “the CEO,” but it stands for Code Efficiency 0." Allegedly, he also doesn't know how to use a far loop, and just copies and pastes th…

Not all memes are for everyone. Some memes are specifically designed for a beautiful woman that's going through something right now. These memes are not made to encapsulate the whole of all human experiences. That would be too easy. These memes are for women on the verge. On the verge of what? Just on the verge. If you get it, you get it. So much online content is made by men about women, and therefore, women are only shown themselves as men see us. That's no good, because the way that men see…

Some great snetences

It isn't easy to articulate just how much of a fan of South Park I was as a tween. When I tell you I was obsessed, it doesn't even begin to cover how much I loved this program. I had a tin South Park lunchbox. I wore a recreation of Kyle's hat during the wintertime. I even wrote a parody of the hit song Call Me Maybe to make it about South Park. I loved that South Park exposed me to different current events that I was too young to have been aware of at the time. I was pretty smug walking around…

Let's be honest: Disney theme parks are literally the best theme parks in the world, and it's not even close. I know that Disney fans have dealt with many issues since the parks reopened. The mouse is really trying to get every dollar you've got and then some. They're even making park guests pay for Fast Passes now! What is this? Six Flags? While some regular park visitors might disagree, as somebody who loves theme parks generally but hasn't been to Disney in 5 years, no other parks compare. D…

As much as boomers and millennials seem to love warring on the internet over who screwed the world up, we can't let ourselves forget how awesome old people can be, especially when they attempt to use some new kind of tech for the first time. It's also important to remember that we're all going to be boomers some day—time will make sure of that. And hopefully in the decades to come, when millennials inevitably hold the boomer torch, we'll end up on meme pages that poke fun at our little incompet…

Gatekeeping is sometimes necessary. I find it unquestionably necessary to gatekeep cat and dog memes from the rest of the animal memes. There is no shortage of lists displaying hundreds of thousands of dog and cat memes. If I were a betting man, I would say there are more cat memes than any other type of meme on God's green earth. I've got nothing against dogs or cats, but I have to ask, where are the worm memes? Where are the buffalo memes? When will the non-domesticated animal of the world ge…

There is a certain way to things, and it's called 'my way'.

A tweet from @NYCParks went viral last week after the account reassured concerned citizens that the sight of squirrels “splooting” around public parks shouldn't be cause for alarm. @NYCParks explained, “On hot days, squirrels keep cool by splooting (stretching out) on cool surfaces to reduce body heat.” Included with the important public service announcement was a picture of a little squirrel sprawled out under the shade of a tree. It turns out squirrels aren't the only splooters in the animal…

It's truly impressive how many people will complain about content they've completely elected to engage with. They click a link that says " Random Memes " or something similar and then they whine that they're not to their liking. Well, guess what? Not everyone likes the same exact kind of memes, and as someone who spends time selecting these moderately funny tidbits, I can tell you with complete certainty, that there's is absolutely no way anyone can make everyone happy. If people think the meme…
