If you'll indulge me, a short thread of my four favorite pieces from the past year is to follow.
The one piece I'm most glad for the chance to have written is from October. I researched the changing definition and use of the word boi, and how online racists played a role in its recent mainstreaming.https://slate.com/human-interest/2020/10/boi-meaning-queer-term-straight-meme.html …
The piece I'm still fired up about was published earlier this month. It's partly about Elliott Page, but mostly it's my love letter to the lesbian community.https://slate.com/human-interest/2020/12/elliot-page-trans-lesbian-divide.html …
A piece with the distinction of having been suggested by my nine year old niece can be found below. It's about Among Us, and how apt a metaphor this game of deceit and gaslighting is for political life in These Troubled Times (TM).https://slate.com/technology/2020/12/aoc-among-us-stream-twitch-politics.html …
And, last not least, here's the most fun I had with words this year: A piece containing my crankiest most curmudgeonly anti-Animal Crossing sentiments.https://slate.com/culture/2020/04/animal-crossing-new-horizons-coronavirus-boredom.html …
