Hello friends and subscribers,
I’m thrilled to announce a new season of The Ick is launching in October. This season’s topic is: TABOO.
We’ll be covering death, sex, and money, obviously — but also kink, comedy, wisdom, and social science. The contributors this season are some of the most talented people I know, and I can't wait to bring you their work.
Topics include:
Jealousy as creative fuel
Kink and feminism
How to talk about banging your wife
Gender dynamics of dominance
Initiation rituals
Cryonics and psychedelics
Phew!
Articles will publish here first, then culminate in a short-run, full-color PRINT MAGAZINE. What a dream! Learn about our inaugural issue here.
All online articles are free, but please consider these paid subscription tiers. All proceeds go toward printing costs. And all paid subscribers receive a free print magazine, plus first access to our in-person launch party next year.
Thank you so much for being here.
More very soon!
-Emily
