I Was Addicted to Hair Transplant Consultations In college I developed an extreme body dysmorphia around my hairline. It took countless transplant consultations—and public confessions—to come out the other side.

for my GQ debut, I wrote about my strange addiction to complimentary hair transplant consultations, and how I finally quit it cold turkey… by going to Turkey www.gq.com/story/i-was-...

Congressional Candidate Kat Abugazaleh: ‘They Picked the Wrong Girl to Indict’ The 26-year-old is facing up to 15 years in federal prison after protesting ICE in her home city.

Last spring, @katmabu.bsky.social launched a campaign with a simple message. “Democrats need to grow a spine.” Seven months later, she’s facing 15 years for protesting ICE and Trump. And she's not backing down. Takes more than spine: www.gq.com/story/kat-ab... @gqmagazine.bsky.social

TrueAnon Saw How Twisted Politics Were About to Get. Here’s What They Say Is Coming Next “Everything we’ve covered is coming to a head with the Trump administration in a very weird way,” says Liz Franczak, one third of the cult podcast.

TrueAnon hasn’t used the podcast to aggressively support a political candidate, not even Zohran Mamdani. "There’s a long trend of politicians moderating as things change," says Belden. "He is already a fairly moderate leftwing guy. It’s tough to be mayor." www.gq.com/story/truean...

The excellent @joshgondelman.bsky.social on John Carroll Lynch, Larry David, Kevin Durant and more great men on the baldness spectrum

Nothing Looks Cooler Than Not Caring You’re Balding In a polarized culture that demands balding men pick a side, opting for the follicular middle ground is a refreshing act of honesty.

I was asked by @gqmagazine.bsky.social to write a little bit about just going bald in the age of widespread head-shaving and affordable, believable hair transplants...so I did!

The Quiet Crisis: What’s Driving Gun Suicides Among Older Americans? More and more older Americans are dying by firearm suicide, a new analysis from The Trace and GQ reveals. Older white men and those in rural areas experience alarmingly high rates.

Older Americans have the highest rates of gun suicide of any age group. Not by a little — by a lot.

Why? I spent months exploring this question through data, field reporting, and interviews with experts. Our story is up today on @thetrace.org

Thankfully, the hegemony of Clown Couture seems to have relaxed a bit. On the rack of public opinion, there is now a tiny sliver of space for the Regular Millennial Guy Look. I don't have to dress like an asshole anymore. What was passé just a few years ago is now vintage-evergreen menswear vocabulary. Whatever the reason for this, dayenu. It's starting to feel like the good old days again, back when we wore clothes and not the reverse. Back when we could walk around downtown without tiny children popping out with tiny microphones asking us how much our outfits cost. Back when genies were happy living in bottles.

Millennial men of Bluesky, my husband wrote a piece about giving up on wearing big pants and I am here to co-sign the decision

The Supreme Court Case That Could End Porn as We Know It An anti-porn backlash is in full swing. The Supreme Court might supercharge it.

You should read this article by Sascha Cohen for @gqmagazine.bsky.social not just because I’m quoted in it, but because it’s a great piece about the anti-porn backlash we’re currently in, and the perilous road ahead for the concept of free speech in America www.gq.com/story/suprem...

My Internet: Derek Thompson The ‘Abundance’ co-author finds it impossible to have strong opinions about AI.

"There’s so much focus on the supply of manosphere content, and not enough focus on the demand. Why are these guys popular? What can liberals take from the lesson of their popularity to become more popular among young men?"
