For mass shootings where 4 or more people were killed: From 1998-2019, the US had up to 100x more mass shootings than other developed countries in the world. In 2022 alone, we’ve had 10 mass shootings…and it’s only May.

We have a problem. A recent study by the Survey Center on American Life found that in the last 30 years, the percent of American men without any close friends jumped from 3% to 15% — that's a 5x increase. nationalreview.com/2021/07/a…

American Men Suffer a Friendship Recession | National Review

American men have fewer friends than in decades past. We should dedicate time to fostering friendships. They provide an immediate and enduring reward.

I turned this thread into a blog post. Should be easier to read this way: julian.com/blog/storytelling

How to tell a great story
