Thrilled to see this—wonder if they know about the National Magazine Awards in the GoonVerse and related Discord servers—also for the record this thing would not exist in any form without Elena, best in the business as is widely known & accepted by all

This Sunday at Press Play, Broadcast hosts @tonytula, @danielkolitz, and @heidegrrrrl for a discussion about the sexual preoccupations of very online men. Should we regard incels and gooners as emblems of dysfunction, or identities worthy of respect? https://t.co/BDKBxnDdLt

Gooning by @danielkolitz is on Bloomberg's 2025 Jealousy List! The gooners themselves have perhaps transcended that emotion, which is interesting.

The stories we admired most this year.

Insanely fun chat re: the Original Gooner, Philip Roth
In this episode, I accidentally pilfered an air bar from guest and gooning expert @danielkolitz, who joined me, @xlorentzen, and @BarneysRubble0 to talk about Portnoy's Complaint, psychoanalysis, mothers, masturbation habits, and more. https://t.co/ZL4QVOd2Wa

A joy to break the fourth wall on my longtime Chapo fandom with a discussion of tranced nihilistic masturbation, the death of literacy, the replacement of prior forms of Being and Knowing with hyperkinetic Subway Surfers gameplay clips, etc.
This week on Chapo, we talk about our officially endorsed candidate beating the odds and winning! That's right, Jay Jones. We also talk about Kash Patel and his country superstar girlfriend, Dick Cheney's death, and then we interview @danielkolitz about his gooning article 👇👇👇

Truly bottom-of-my heart gratitude to @elenasb_ for taking this on and shaping it/making it better every step of the way. Immense thanks as well to Matthew Sherrill for expertly picking up where Elena left off and to @mr_gusaroni, this piece’s all-timer fact-checker.

“What is this? Why isn’t it porn?” That is what they will say about this article (and all other articles) in the future. Until then:

Loneliness, porn’s next frontier, and the dream of endless masturbation

Wankbattling. Pornosexuality. The very real possibility that most people will be illiterate within like ten years. All this and more in my long-in-the-works report on the world of gooning, which you can read now in @Harpers

Kolitz restoring the one true millennial art form––the takedown––to its former glory:
I wrote about Millennials for @thebafflermag

Bloomberg reporter Charlie Wells searches for the millennial in strip malls, dating sites, and Rust Belt drug counseling offices. What he comes up with, writes @danielkolitz, has more blind spots than an episode of “Girls.” https://t.co/96xfBKWlyf

A central premise of millennial life was that in exchange for accepting less—less money, less stability—one could stay young forever.

Wrote about Backwardness, Garielle Lutz’s fairly insane 932-page autobiographical masterpiece, for @thenation
thenation.com
Garielle Lutz is one of America’s great writers. Why has her literary genius gone unnoticed?
