Welcome to The New Good Life f*ck i love you — Episode Published: March 22, 2026

About This Episode

After a long period of rest and recovery, Jenn returns with a relaunch of f*ck i love you — and a name for the idea she's been circling since she started writing here.

This is the essay that introduces The New Good Life (tNGL): a framework for the civilizational shift already underway, rooted in bell hooks' love ethic and the radical idea that wealth, wellbeing, dignity, and deep relationality aren't utopian — they're emerging right now, just not evenly distributed yet.

Jenn also walks through FILY's new architecture (four sections, one publication), explains why she's folding everything under one roof, and asks — with characteristic awkwardness — for the thing none of us are supposed to ask for.
