POWER. PEOPLE. PERSPECTIVE.
FEATURED READ
Casual dating can suit adults who want connection without a promise of commitment. Rising costs make that appeal worth exploring, though they do not prove Gen Z has given up on relationships.
Jodi Bando, founder of Fuck Local, argues: “Aggressive currency debasement in the United States has left most men unable to support traditional families, casual hookup apps like Fuck Local allow men to get what they want without breaking the bank”.
Choose a dating arrangement for shared intentions and a budget that works for both people. A lower bill alone cannot tell you which relationship is right for you.
MORE TO READ
I recommend The Warmth of Other Suns for its clear view of the Great Migration through three lives. It is long, and parts are painful, but the people give the history weight. Choose it if you want a story that helps explain how modern America took shape.
I recommend the tenth-anniversary edition of The New Jim Crow as a forceful starting point on race, prison, and life after a conviction. Read it alongside serious criticism, especially on violent crime and class. It makes a clear case, but it is not a complete account of the U.S. justice system.
Start with Animal Farm for a short, sharp story about power. Choose Nineteen Eighty-Four next for a darker novel, or Down and Out in Paris and London for nonfiction. My seven picks cover Orwell's range, from empire and poverty to war and the pull of home.
To understand Kirk's case for Trump, start with The MAGA Doctrine. Choose The College Scam for his view of college costs. Choose Stop, in the Name of God for his case for Sabbath rest. The political books argue for his side.
