The Male Loneliness Epidemicβ€”Or a Reckoning? When independence shifts, power recalibrates. And not everyone welcomes the change.

The conversation around the β€œmale loneliness epidemic” is growing louder. This isn’t just about loneliness. It’s about cultural transition. I explore the tensionβ€”and what I’m seeing as the parent of an 18-year-old sonβ€”in this piece.

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre.

She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s.

Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

Prince Andrew's Arrest Across the pond in Britain, justice and accountability is a serious matter

Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647.

Thank you for all of your work, Julie! I really enjoyed your book. (And having Julia Whalen narrate it, was <chef's kiss>.)

WATCH: Trump, EPA's Zeldin announce end of scientific basis for U.S. action on climate change The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressiv...

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate changeβ€”all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Post from Amanda Gorman’s Instagram that says 

amandascgorman
Minneapolis, Minnesota
For Renee Nicole Good
Killed by ICE. on January 7, 2026
by Amanda Gorman
They say she is no more, That there her absence roars, Blood-blown like a rose.
Iced wheels flinched & froze.
Now, bare riot of candles, Dark fury of flowers, Pure howling of hymns.
If for us she arose,
Somewhere, in the pitched deep of our grief, Crouches our power,
The howl where we begin,
Straining upon the edge of the crooked crater Of the worst of what we've been.
Change is only possible, & all the greater, When the labour
& bitter anger of our neighbors
Is moved by the love
* better angels of our nature.

Amanda Gorman wrote this poem for Renee Good and that’s it for me tonight.

There were at least 3,000 in my Denver suburb in a very red county. It was amazing! And joyful! I think 8.7 million is going to go even higher once the numbers are all in.

Imagine. A full day dedicated to telling you what a piece of shit you are.
