On this week's episode, we discuss the legendary online publication and twee teenage nightmare, Rookie magazine. Founded by ordained gifted kid Tavi Gevinson in 2011, Rookie radicalized a generation of Tumblr-addicted young women into free-bleeding their way through lives, physically and emotionally. We share stories from our self-imposed suffering as misguided teen feminists, discuss the neoliberal obsession with pubescent saviors, speculate on the potential pleasure of trauma, and do recon to figure out whether or not /my sister's boyfriend Fox on his last day of high school/ is still trade.
