Mina every 2 weeks my friends and i have a “pinkberry meeting” where we rehash the events that have occurred since the last time we met at pinkberry. Definitely recommend froyo as a third place
One of my resolutions was to engage more in text stuff throughout the internet and in a less ephemeral way (an eternal war against the eternal timelines), so imagine my joy when I saw that you came back with the newsletter! Anyway, I really like your work and I wish you nothing but the best for 2024 :)
something i would really like to see out: boy vs girl everything. 'divine feminine' vs. 'divine masculine', 'girls locker room' vs. 'boys locker room', 'girl math' vs 'boy math', 'at the girls sleepover' vs. 'at the boys sleepover' and so forth. When will it end. The joke is on us and we are not in on it...the only thing that these dichotomies do is cede ground to bioessentialism and belief in inherently gendered behaviours.
I'm SO glad you're back. I was first introduced to Substack through your newsletter and was later inspired to start my own. It feels great to see you writing again. I know anything you write will be incredible and I'm excited to see what you'll do in 2024 :)
Listen, i've been watching outlander for the past week & i'm like everything they say is so poetic I'ma start picking up what they say. The way we talk to each other is so boring!!!!
expanding my vocabulary is such a goal in 2024! something i’ve been doing is writing down words i don’t know while reading and then going back and looking them all up and writing down the definitions ... something i had to do reading joan didion! she had such an expansive vocabulary
I'm one of your youtube fans but I just subscribed to your substack and this is my first of your essays I've engaged with. I soo agree with your denouncing of "girl math"/"20-year-old teenager" concept that has been all over the internet. It initially began as newly adult women finding community online of that in between stage of youth and adulthood and reclaiming girlyness/femininity that was previously viewed as lesser than. However, as more people uphold this concept its morphed into a form of misogyny that 'praises' women for being in this infantilized state. It sucks how misogyny continues to be 'reinvented' in trendy ways, and then when you call them out on it you're the bad guy :(
So excited to see more writing come from you, Mina! And I sooo agree with the a third space to hang out at every week. I've been thinking about that a lot for my own friend group!! Happy new year ♡
im ready to start adopting shakespearean slang

in: sustained argumentation, long-form writing (Substack), taking yourself intellect seriously as a woman
out: fragmentary writing (Twitter), deliberately infantilising yourself for an audience
👏👏👏

So happy see you back - take your time with setting up consistency here - love reading your stuff
Obsessed with this format of media, and excited to see what you'll do in 2024 ✨
