What's the etiquette for when the same journal that rejected your paper after an R&R dismissing the idea, now invites you to review a paper that does the same thing because you ended up publishing it elsewhere?

Still hungover from the Wicked double feature, still have many complaint about unnecessary changes

but -

If hetero men want to end their "loneliness epidemic" they should watch Wicked II, do what Jonathan Bailey does, & take notes of warning from the Tin Man (who in this movie is an incel).

The entire In The Heights musical. It's not just about immigration - it has a clear generational mobility tone. 'Breath' (Nina's song) & 'Paciencia y Fe' (abuela's song) are explicitly about the intergen experience. Hamilton too (My Shot, 'I'm joining the rebellion to socially advance').

Things I never thought I'd say to convince the (truly sweet) salesman to sell me a pillow because he assumed it's too big for me & my non-existing partner.

(The sentence isn't grammatically correct. I don't care. I got my pillow).

I just can't anymore w/psychologists (specifically) taking their tiny easy surveys and write "demographic analyses" and then find a predatory journal to publish it.

There's a discipline called DEMOGRAPHY. Google it.

Excited to finally share my new paper (w/RaphaΓ«l Charron-ChΓ©nier) out in BJS! Staying Apart for the Kids looks at how older adults consider preserving family wealth in their new relationships. Drawing on my interviews with mid/late-life daters, we show how accumulated wealth shapes dating decisions.
