The Covington Boys, Viral Content and the Social Media Mob

January 23, 2019 Steve Tobak — No Comments

The Covington Catholic boys episode was an ugly, monumental fail for everyone involved — an embarrassing number of people, actually. The coastal elites and the media mob rushed to judgement, had to walk it all back and never connected the dots on what really happened. But let’s not get ahead[…] Read On

What’s the Worst Habit You Ever Kicked?

January 22, 2019 Steve Tobak — No Comments

If you’ve been hanging around here for a while you know I’m that rare combination of obsessive compulsive and addictive personality. In other words, I easily develop bad habits that are nearly impossible to break. I’ve probably had just about every bad habit you can think of and some you[…] Read On

Should Parents Tell Kids About Their ‘Extracurricular’ Activities?

January 21, 2019 Steve Tobak — No Comments

In case you haven’t noticed I’m a storyteller who’s lived a relatively interesting life, especially back in the 70s and 80s. Actually the 90s were pretty wild too. Hmm, and the 00s, now that was a good time. Come to think of it, just last week … never mind. You[…] Read On

Illegal Immigration and Border Security for Dummies (in Washington)

January 20, 2019 Steve Tobak — No Comments

Raise your hand if you’re sick of hearing about the government shutdown, the pissing contest between Pelosi and Trump and the ludicrous debate over border security and illegal immigration. Did you seriously just raise your hand? You know I can’t see you, right? Never mind. The point is we’re all[…] Read On

Rain, Depression and Contagious Yawning

January 17, 2019 Steve Tobak — No Comments

I am devoid of thought. Feelings, I’ve got none. It’s the rain. It makes me feel dead inside. Guess I’m one of those people who could never live in Seattle. Actually that’s a myth. The average annual rainfall in Seattle is 37 1/2 inches. Here in the Bay Area’s Santa[…] Read On

Masculinity Is Not Toxic — But Gillette’s Ad Is

January 16, 2019 Steve Tobak — No Comments

The Gillette toxic masculinity ad. Here we are, polarized again. Now there’s a shocker. The sides in this debate line up something like this: Either 1) Gillette and P&G hate men so boycott, or 2) they’re just pointing out bad behavior, so what’s wrong with that? As usual, both sides[…] Read On

The Heartbreak of Toxic Masculinity

January 15, 2019 Steve Tobak — No Comments

Just got back from the shrink’s office. It did not go as I’d hoped. Here’s what happened: DOC: How are you today, Steve? ME: Not so good. The hits just keep coming, know what I mean? DOC: That’s sort of what I wanted to talk to you about. ME: Oh?[…] Read On
