Tip of the hat to Summer Koester, whose writing inspires me (also, she just tagged brand-new Substacker Andrew Tate a “douche canoe,” so she wins the internet today).

I’m not bummed that Substack allows Tate here; I’m bummed that humanity allows him on Earth. Perhaps these thoughts on manhood—and what we lose when it’s subverted—can be a slight antidote.

Now go row your douche canoe merrily down the stream!
