Did the sight of Shane and Ilya kissing in ‘Heated Rivalry’ awaken a libidinal desire inside you? Is this you: “I can’t actually figure out what’s happening to me. I’m just having a midlife crisis where I’m like, I’m never going to feel these feelings again.”?
You’re not alone.

There was a time, not very long ago, when Ben Shapiro could reasonably call himself the king of all conservative media. That’s all over now, writes political columnist Ross Barkan.
Shapiro’s company, ‘The Daily Wire,’ is instituting significant layoffs. Its YouTube channel’s subscriber base is starting to shrink, and its website has emerged as one of the great traffic losers in conservative media. There are ‘Daily Wire’ YouTube videos that now, after a few days online, have less than 10,000 views, a catastrophically small number for a channel with more than 3 million subscribers. The top comments all mock the low view counts.
“If a variety of poor business decisions can be blamed, in part, for the ‘Daily Wire’’s fall from grace — ill-fated investments in feature films, an epic fantasy series, and peculiar merchandise — the greater story is the collapse of Shapiro’s constituency,” writes Barkan. “There are two realities to Shapiro conservatism in 2026: It retains a significant foothold among Republican elites, and it is fast being rejected by the future grassroots of the party.”

“Lately, I’ve been thinking about smoking. All the time,” writes author Xochitl Gonzalez. “With each passing day of this absolutely deranged year, my desire to contemplate how to make sense of it all while puffing on a cigarette grows.”
Part of this smoking thing is a yearning for the past, admits Gonzalez. Not in an effort to recapture her youth, but to recapture an approach to time and life.
“I can’t personally slow down technology or fix media or the demands of capitalism or any of the other existential things that have crept into our lives,” she writes. “But maybe what I can do is stop what I’m doing, ask somebody to come outside, and take five minutes to slow down with me while I engage in the very dangerous act of holding a flaming stick to my face. This could be my rebellion.”

Wasians were more visible than ever this year: Alysa Liu and Eileen Gu were the reigning queens of the Milan Olympics; Hudson Williams parlayed the fervor of ‘Heated Rivalry’ into brand ambassadorships for Peloton and Balenciaga; Charles Melton got an Emmy nomination for ‘Beef’; Megan Lawless and Lukita Maxwell starred in Gen Z horror blockbusters ‘Obsession’ and ‘Backrooms’; Olivia Rodrigo led the ‘Billboard’ Hot 100.
In the U.S., there are more multiracial Asians, specifically Wasians, than ever before. Asian Americans are the fastest growing racial group in the country, hitting a new high of 26.4 million in 2024. About one in five are multiracial, and of those, 82% are part white. What was once an isolating experience is now a mass coming of age.
The generational arrival was on display in May when an open invite to a Wasian meetup in Central Park landed on Partiful and was instantly faced with backlash. People felt that Wasians, by carving out a separate space within mixed-race identity, had the air of superiority. The increasing amount of Wasian stars in Hollywood, sports, music, and social media only seemed to confirm this fear. An incoming generation, simply by their existence, dislodged a crooked anxiety that the new face of Asian America is Wasian.
E. Alex Jung spoke to over 50 people, including Hollywood writers, actors, producers, and the Wasian meetup organizers, about the current moment. Read his full report on how an incoming generation of Wasians has triggered a collective identity crisis: https://nymag.visitlink.me/KiVPem

‘Travel sports,’ a term that has come to encompass all sorts of private teams, leagues, and clubs, used to be for the truly exceptional young athlete. Now, they’re for anyone willing to pay — an expensive, exhausting commitment that has become popular not necessarily because millions of parents want them for their children but because it can feel like there’s no other choice. Rec programs are underfunded and struggle to compete with for-profit leagues for prime field, rink, and court times. And the level of play is diluted, often very early, as travel teams are incentivized to enroll children at young ages.
Around 5 million children in the U.S. now compete on travel teams. Parents find themselves trapped. They know the benefits of sports and want that for their children, yet giving it to them often means buying into a sports ecosystem that’s inherently flawed. As the pay-to-play model increasingly takes hold, so does the idea that kids should start competing at younger and younger ages, risking their sense of self along with their shoulders and ACLs.
“I never want my kids to look back and say I didn’t do everything I could to help them live their dreams,” a mother of three soccer players said. She’s hired professional photographers to take action shots for her 12- and 13-year-olds’ Instagram accounts — the platform has become a recruiting tool — and they’ve both asked her to pay for personal trainers.
“I think the word isn’t ‘specialize’; you are ‘professionalizing’ your kid early. You are exposing them to everything professionals have to deal with — I’m talking injury, time, schedule, everything,” said John Van Benschoten, a former MLB player and travel-baseball coach.
It makes one ask: All this for what? And for whom? Read Caitlin Moscatello’s cover story on how travel leagues have made youth sports more expensive, hypercompetitive, and all-consuming — and the investors who are making a killing: https://nymag.visitlink.me/1-gbZQ

Sooner or later, everyone has to decide whether to give up lazy weekends, disposable income, and overall peace of mind to have a baby instead. For many of those on the fence, one anxiety looms large: What if I make the wrong choice? Parent regret is more common than you might think — the r/regretfulparents sub-Reddit alone gets around 70,000 weekly visitors who anonymously commiserate — though stigma makes it hard to admit in real life. Writer Bindu Bansinath speaks with three moms of young children about why they wish they could go back to their old lives: https://nymag.visitlink.me/Sv0c_9

There’s a lot of sex in Jennette McCurdy’s debut novel, ‘Half His Age’ — more than you might otherwise expect. The former Nickelodeon star and ‘I’m Glad My Mom Died’ author strives for discomfort as her protagonist, Waldo, a 17-year-old student in Alaska, has sex again and again and again with her 40-year-old English teacher, Mr. Korgy. ‘Half His Age’ isn’t endorsing their relationship; anyone even a little bit familiar with McCurdy’s writing knows that she’s compelled by female rage and the way young women are used and discarded.
So much of the book, however, leans on that using and discarding as a repeated narrative beat to show us just how poorly Waldo is treated and how cheap she thinks of herself as being. “With little to no foil for this dismaying existence, however, ‘Half His Age’ often succumbs to shock value in lieu of pushing beyond that which offends,” @franhoepfner writes.
The sex scenes between Waldo and Korgy are designed to alienate readers — McCurdy repeatedly emphasizes how wrong it all is — but they also eat up a lot of the novel’s oxygen such that shock value starts to become its only value.
Waldo, despite being the novel’s narrator, shows us only one side of herself. Only as she starts to wake up to the limits of what Korgy can provide her does ‘Half His Age’ start to subvert reader expectations, but by then the book is very nearly over.

In a viral TikTok posted last month, a woman shared that her husband tried to destroy her favorite perfume by smashing the bottle against the sink and broke the sink instead. When commenters said his behavior was unfunny and abusive, she posted a screenshot of money she has made from TikTok, which “haters” contribute to. In another infamous video, a woman said she’s on her fifth day of silence with her fiancé after he bought her a cheap butter dish for Christmas while she got him an Xbox. In a follow-up post, she said she loves Kerrygold and insisted the original video was just for laughs. “You 100 percent deserve what you tolerate,” one commenter replied.
Of course, no one understands the nuances of a relationship better than the people inside it. But these recent examples illustrate a phenomenon we’ve probably all experienced, when a friend or stranger shares tidbits of her partner’s bad behavior but will still defend him when anyone calls him out. It’s whiplash: “My husband hates me,” the shtick begins, followed by some version of “Stop, guys, it was a joke” or “You don’t understand our relationship.”
You might argue that these videos are little more than sitcom schlock or rage-bait meant to maximize engagement. But the fury viewers feel is real. In a moment when women are reexamining the value of hetero relationships, many are tired of telling friends and loved ones to leave the men dragging them down. They don’t want to commiserate; they want you to do better.

Has there ever been a more anxiety-inducing time to have a small penis?
In March, a dating coach named Anwar White went viral for a video instructing women how to “catch print”: the art of assessing a man’s penis size through his pants. The TikTok inspired countless women and gay guys to get online and speak openly about dick size. Before long, women were catching print on paintings in Versailles and celebrity pap shots of everyone from Mark Zuckerberg to Harry Styles.
It’s not just attention seekers on the internet obsessing over penis size. Last year at the DNC, Barack Obama used his hands to suggest that the current president is below average. In March, Megyn Kelly took to X and accused the conservative commentator Mark Levin of having a micropenis, also giving him a catchy, Trumpian nickname, “Micropenis Mark.”
Meanwhile, men are pumping their genitals with filler and “jelqing,” a stretching technique that involves stroking the shaft with pressure from base to tip in hopes of gaining a few centimeters. In a recent survey on penis size, 67 percent of respondents admitted to lying about their size. Notably, Gen Z reported the lowest confidence in their penises.
“I think there’s a hyperfocus on the way we look,” says White. “Men are going through a lot right now. Things aren’t as stable for them as they used to be.”

Joe Lim estimates that 90 percent of what you see on the internet is advertising in disguise, and he should know. For three years, Lim ran a company called Floodify, which at its peak operated 65,000 dummy social-media accounts used to drum up attention on behalf of paying clients.
The point of this kind of marketing is that nobody is supposed to notice it. But lately, the machinery has started to show.
In April, Justin Bieber headlined two consecutive weekends at Coachella. Coachella is the biggest stage in pop music save only for the Super Bowl, the kind of event that in theory generates its own attention. And yet on both weekends, a Discord server writer Lane Brown had been monitoring hosted paid campaigns for Bieber’s Coachella performances, offering clippers — people who are hired to turn a song, trailer, interview, stump speech, or whatever into short, social-media-friendly fragments — as much as a dollar per thousand views.
“On social media, popular opinion is being formed, measured, and manipulated all at once, and every signal the platforms produce — a trending song, a backlash, a talking point, the feeling that ‘everybody’ is suddenly talking about the same thing — can now be fabricated by unseen actors with hidden agendas,” writes Brown.
“Everybody is doing this now,” Lim says. “And if you’re not, you’re behind.”
Brown reports on how the same techniques are now being used to fool people on every app they go to in order to find out what other people think, not just in music but across entertainment, politics, consumer products, and celebrity gossip: https://nymag.visitlink.me/w6Bu9N

Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez’s appearance at the Munich Security Conference — one of the world’s premier foreign-policy events — seemed to be a step in the direction of higher office. It was supposed to be a triumphant foreign visit for Ocasio-Cortez, who is, on the national level, the best current hope for the American left, political columnist Ross Barkan writes.
Though she acquitted herself well in a majority of the interviews and panels in Munich, one stumble stood out, writes Barkan. Questioned directly about whether the U.S. should send troops to defend Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion, Ocasio-Cortez stalled for about 20 seconds. “I think that, uh, this is such a, a — you know, I think that — this is a, um — this is of course, a, uh, a very long-standing, um, policy of the United States,” the congresswoman said.
The stumble is “a warning for progressives,” writes Barkan. “It’s vital to approach certain foreign-policy and national-security issues, including China’s potential invasion of Taiwan, in a more sophisticated manner.”

In November 2024, Kyla Simpson carried triplets as a surrogate for a single man in China named Ted Zhou. He and Simpson had entered into the contract with joy and optimism. But after his sons were born, in November 2024, Zhou never arrived to pick them up. Then Simpson learned he hadn’t applied for a visa. She agreed to take the babies home until he could come retrieve them.
Five months later, Simpson was surprised when two Chinese strangers appeared at her door and demanded she give them the triplets. They’d been dispatched by Zhou, who was still waiting for his visa interview. Running out of money for the boys’ care, he’d hired them as a last resort. Now, as his calls went ignored, he feared the surrogate he’d hired had fallen in love with his children and would never let them go.
To Simpson, the handlers’ arrival confirmed her own suspicions. She’d started piecing together a theory that Zhou was part of a trafficking ring that commissioned surrogate babies who would be separated and sold. Over the next year, she would call the FBI, accuse Zhou of abandoning the babies, try to terminate his parental rights and file for adoption.
American women gestate thousands of babies every year for overseas parents, almost half of whom live in China, yet no federal or international regulations govern surrogacy. With cultural differences, a language barrier, and a patchwork of conflicting state laws, it can be hard to tell in a dispute who is a victim and who is a perpetrator, who has been scammed and who is the scammer. Now, as the two parties face each other in court, the ruling could threaten the status of thousands of parents and define the future of international surrogacy. (The legal process will likely take many more months.)

The last time we surveyed New Yorkers about their paychecks, the math was easy. Well, easier. In 2005, a blogger at Gawker made $30,000 and the CEO at Lehman Brothers more than $35 million. Back then, there was no “gig economy,” at least not as we know it today, and coffee shops from Bed-Stuy to the Upper East Side weren’t lousy with model–pickleballer–nanny–actor–producer–DJ–creative directors.
Some 20 years later, amid a radically different economic environment in which the nature of work feels as if it’s about to change forever, we set out to conduct a similar experiment. We reached into our network of sources, blind-messaged LinkedIn profiles, put out a casting call on Instagram, even stopped strangers in Union Square.
What we discovered, just before a jobs report earlier this month confirmed a dwindling labor market, is that salaries across most industries have not kept up with inflation in a city that has become exorbitantly expensive. Of course, there are plenty of people, especially at the very top, doing all right on their salary plus bonus and stock options.
The aim of our latest investigation wasn’t simply an excuse to be nosy. The hope was to capture this moment and provide some sideways service to those wondering what else there might be to do. It’s not too late to try to become a tugboat engineer, is it?

A white male New York ‘Times’ employee filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission alleging the paper had discriminated against him by not giving him a promotion because he is a white male. On Tuesday, the EEOC, now controlled by a Trump appointee who has vowed to help wage the president’s war against DEI culture, filed a civil-rights lawsuit against the ‘Times’ arguing that the paper’s efforts to satisfy its diversity goals amounted to “unlawful employment practices.”
The paper itself was first to break the news of the suit but did not name the employee who made the complaint. Reporters at the paper have been scrambling to figure out the employee’s identity, driven in part by bafflement that one of their own colleagues would sell out the paper to the administration, which has used tools of the federal government to attack the press.
“This has been kind of a shitshow behind the scenes — people trying to figure out who the aggrieved person is,” said another ‘Times’ staffer. The release of the complaint on Tuesday narrowed the speculation to Bryant Rousseau, a senior editor and producer on the ‘Times’’s international desk who has been with the paper for more than a decade.

The massive success of ‘Heated Rivalry’ is the culmination of decades of fandom: stans, zines, and, yes, fan fiction. One of the most popular forms of fanfic is slash — romances between characters of the same genre. And the most overwhelming majority of slash is M/M (male/male) romance, which tends to be written by women.
In Asia, the same genre is known as boys’ love (BL), and the women who write and read it are called fujoshi, translating to “rotten girl.” The term originated as an insult but has since been reclaimed by lovers of BL (boys’ love) and, in the wake of ‘Heated Rivalry,’ by women all over the West too. But without the work of fandoms past, the world would not be ready to fujo out with such abandon.
