Crotchpot

Toxic Masculinity

Toxic Masculinity

In urban, educated America, masculinity is fashionable only with a veneer of irony.

Prologue

Prologue

For the month of February, each writer’s post will begin with the same line, which we’ve borrowed from Kurt Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-Five. All this happened, more or less. They left me alone in the cabin. Josiah and Charlotte, teenagers of neglect and meth and...

the post calvin: selected essays 2013–2016

After three years of publishing daily pieces online, the post calvin is proud to present the post calvin: selected essays. Editors Josh deLacy, Will Montei, Debra Rienstra, and Abby Zwart, along with suggestions from writers, chose pieces that represent the heart of soul of the post calvin.

Why I Believe

Why I Believe

I believe because I don’t believe in soundbites, How to Win Friends and Influence People, diets, morals of the story, or myself.

A friend asked me the other day

A friend asked me the other day

I settled on Golds. Hers. They matched my monochrome mediocrity. White and featureless, even the butts.
