I Need My Kid To Stop Calling Me "Bro"

"My 11-year-old has started calling me 'bro,' and it's all my fault. He never says it in a cute, loving context. It gives off a kind-of frustrated, are you serious vibe. And I'm over it," writes Samm Davidson. What follows is a rant that you'll probably appreciate if you're dealing with tweenage attitude!

Meredith Masony Gets It, Because She's Been There Too

There's a good chance you recognize comedian and content creator Meredith Masony from a very familiar activity: folding laundry. While most of us are slogging it out at home, maybe while binging Selling Sunset, she's known for taking a different approach and livestreaming the process to her followers, chatting with her community while she works her way through baskets and baskets of the stuff. Well, I got a chance to chat with Masony about life, laundry, and lots of other stuff, and she really shifted my perspective on things. Give it a read.

"Despite being born in the United States, I grew up with quite a bit of British culture. My mom and grandparents are originally from England, and that heritage seeped into my childhood in the form of Jammie Dodgers, Mr. Bean, and Wallace and Gromit. I grew up with grandparents showing me what British television they could, often by way of grainy VHS tapes or whatever was being shown on BBC America (I'm really aging myself here)," writes Morgan Flaherty. She knows what she's talking about, and today she's giving you some recs.

Maybe Your Partner Shouldn’t Be Your Best Friend

Maybe Your Partner Shouldn't Be Your Best Friend

"When I met my now ex-husband in my early 20s, I wanted him to be my best friend," writes Diana Park. "I wanted a partner to do everything with me, to be everything for me — a confidant, a sounding board for business ideas, and an antiquing buddy. I thought (naively) that that's what a true soulmate and boyfriend should be. And because I was in my early 20s and hadn't lived enough to realize that was an awful lot to expect from one person, I quickly became disappointed."

And she learned something very, very important from the experience.
