Hi Friends,

First off, thanks for your patience. It’s been a bit since I posted, but I plan to start a more regular posting schedule now. Two big updates for you before this week’s post.

(1) While I may not have written much in the past few months, I did contribute to the making of this child: So, that’s pretty cool and better than any article I could write.

(2) My goal with The User is Content is to unwarp society for you. I want it to be a valuable and self-aware addition to the disgusting gluttonous orgy of information we’re all f*****g about in every single day. I like doing it—even if I know it’s sometimes just hot takes. It means a lot to me that 700+ people subscribe and read my posts. To keep things consistent and post more routinely, I’m going to start charging for my Substack. Existing readers get access for $11.11/year, and this price is good forever. This offer only lasts a week, and then prices go up to $44.44/year.

Now, for the main attraction, Kids with Guns. As almost always, it was inspired by a conversation with my wife, who now has her own Substack—subscribe so she feels the pressure to actually post. The question is, why are toy dildos inappropriate but toy guns aren't?
