    Hmmmm what are your thoughts on this? I thought it was interesting and very opinionated. The authors are definitely clear on their stance. I’ll admit, I skimmed bits and read others, but it felt more like this essay was comprised of things they just wanted to get off their chest and not a means to try and sway any detractors. Which maybe was the point, but it left me wanting.

    Sorry, I’m not trying to make a factual argument. You are 100% accurate, if I actually came across a bear I would probably be killed. It’s a thought experiment, think along the lines of Schrodeinger’s cat. It’s an unknowable quantity: is this man going to hurt me, is he going to be nice? Is this bear going to maul me, is this bear going to ignore me? Point being, when some people see an unknown male I can understand why some would react as if they came across a large predator in the woods. All hypothetical, but again it’s a social commentary about the deep-seated fear of males. Which is sad.

    I’ll talk more about this through dms if you’d like.

    Really? I don’t think it’s reinforcing the patriarchy. I think it’s pretty funny, a satirical commentary on the unfortunate truth that most people don’t feel safe around males. Like, bruh, I’m a dude, but I’d rather see a bear than another man if I was on a solo backpacking trip.







  • Never have, but my assumption is that the concentrated flavor from the long steep time would mask any slight change the hot water might add. However, could be fun to have a thing of extra concentrated cold brew and a separate thing of hot water prepared coffee and combine the two before drinking. Play around with the ratios a bit to find the dopest mixture 🤌
