Should I write something for my Substack newsletter that’s a bit political, a bit about world events or would you even read it if I did?

Sometimes I just want to sit in a cozy café with my MacBook, a coffee, and a million thoughts in my head, like I’m in a 2000s chick flick. 💻 I wrote a little about writing, figuring things out, and finding my own voice. My latest on Substack is here: onuryaziyor1.substack.com/p/writing-fo...

THOSE IN POWER = 🐷 | THE REST OF US = 🫏

Realizing Elon Musk isn’t a visionary should be a basic requirement for being considered smart and mature.

The working members of society can’t get anything, while the members who can have everything don’t work at all.

A few posts ago, I mentioned that I’d returned to the platform with a new account and was starting from scratch. I’d really appreciate it if you could add me to Starter Packs where I can share my thoughts and ideas with people who might be interested in them.

With wars raging and working-class people struggling to make ends meet, it’s infuriating to see privileged people showing off their cars that literally do flips, as if that’s something worth bragging about. Imagine being that rich and that disconnected from reality. 🙄

I want to write a lot about identity because I love exploring its different layers, almost like the layers of an onion. I honestly think I could do a better job of exploring these topics than the author of Yellowface. 😏 I’m going to use my Substack for that. ✍️📚

🤮 🤮 🤮

Schopenhauer was the ultimate incel He argued women shouldn't control their own inheritance, yet his romantic life involved pursuing a woman who was the mistress of a married man. The irony of a man obsessed with women's inferiority lecturing everyone about how women should live.

Some people become the worst versions of themselves as they age. Their mental decline makes them lose the filters they had when they were younger, so they say whatever comes to mind and act however they want. Just look at the Orange Man.

I've always wanted to write something, and I do write, but I don’t really have many subscribers on Substack. I’d really appreciate it if you could share, read, and support me. onuryaziyor1.substack.com/p/just-writi...

As a foreigner, following American politics is kind of fun because it gives you a chance to predict what might happen around the world. It’s chaotic, but somehow still predictable. 😅

Some people lean so hard on symbols, slogans, and red hats because their ideas aren’t strong enough to stand on their own. That’s why they hide their aggression behind them.

I think some men, when they get older or face an illness, tend to form emotional connections with themselves and those around them. I believe this happens because patriarchy forces men to suppress their emotions.

I think I finally understand Paul Sheldon. At least he had a story to write. I just have a MacBook and a blank page. substack.com/@onuryaziyor...

Acting like goodness doesn’t need power means ignoring the power of evil.

It was once thought that male violence was simply a result of how boys are raised. But when we look at men and their families, it becomes clear that the way we teach boys to “be men” is itself harmful. We teach them to disconnect from emotions, vulnerability, and relationships.

Madness is rare in individuals; in groups, parties, peoples, and eras, it is the rule.

Coming back to a place you already know feels familiar. I don’t know if anyone who followed me before will see this, or if anyone new will notice me. I mostly write about books, writing, life, politics, and whatever is on my mind.
