this issue of Cosmo has an article written by someone who saw a new age exorcist to help get over her ex, and just casually mentions that both her and the exorcist were wearing masks. I love it.

I hate to say it but I think I’m too old for Cosmo now. It uses zoomer slang and too much of the content seems geared towards college students. I used to love Seventeen when I was, like, 13, and I have this memory of being 17 in a bookstore flipping through Seventeen and realizing it was geared towards middle schoolers all along. I guess now that I’ve hit the wall I should graduate to Women’s Health.

Stories about high schoolers are typically aimed at middle schoolers, stories about middle schoolers are typically aimed at elementary schoolers, etc. I guess because a lot of fiction is aspirational.

Working on the business side of kids’ TV, it becomes obvious that DisneyLodeon is basically a bunch of 20-year-olds playing 16-year-olds having 12-year-olds’ problems for an audience of 8-year-olds
