Untied State of Anxiety
I miss the America I grew up in. Fairness. Trust. Hope. Or maybe it sucked then too but we didn't have any way to complain about it. Fortunately, now we do. misongrey.substack.com

White People Who Stan Hard for Hip-Hop Are Dumber Than a Bag of Hair 18.02.2026 3:46
In this unfiltered roast, the author traces the timeless stupidity of white hip-hop obsessives back to the 1990s, when Wall Street investment bros in pleated khakis and boat shoes rolled into the hood trying to buy nickel bags from actual dealers, dropping awkward Tribe Called Quest lines and getting mercilessly laughed off the block for their failed assimilation attempts. Fast-forward to today an...
Civil War II Is Coming to America 17.02.2026 7:00
In this episode, we unpack the growing urge many Americans feel to look beyond the U.S. for a calmer, more affordable life—and why Greece keeps popping up as the “Mediterranean retirement cheat code.” We break down the real math behind relocating, from Golden Visa investment options and startup costs to a realistic monthly budget, healthcare expectations, and where you’d actually want to live (Ath...
Elon Musk: "College Is For Morons." 16.02.2026 5:13
Elon Musk has long called bullshit on the idea that a four-year college degree is the golden ticket to success in America, bluntly declaring college "overrated" and its value "somewhat overweighted." The billionaire—who snagged degrees from Penn but ditched Stanford's PhD after two days—argues that too many kids rack up massive debt for four years of partying and pointless lectures, only to gradua...
Money Damn Well Does Buy Happiness. 15.02.2026 4:23
In this snarky take, we challenge the feel-good myth that “money can’t buy happiness,” arguing that while cash doesn’t create joy by itself, it absolutely buys the conditions that make it possible—safety, security, time, autonomy, healthcare, and freedom from constant financial stress. The post calls out the privilege behind dismissing money’s importance and reframes wealth as the infrastructure o...
Humans? You're Fired. 14.02.2026 5:23
AI leaders like Mustafa Suleyman, Dario Amodei, Sam Altman, and Jensen Huang are ALL warning that AI will rapidly automate large portions of white-collar work, reshape most jobs, and compress decades of workforce change into just a few years. While they don’t all predict immediate job loss, they consistently agree the nature of work is shifting fast — and society isn’t fully prepared for the impac...
That IRS Refund is Definitely NOT a Win. 11.02.2026 1:57
Let’s talk about the thing fools celebrate every spring like they just hit the lottery: the IRS refund. You know, the one where grown adults post screenshots of their deposit like they just outsmarted the system… when in reality they just got their own money back after letting the government hang onto it for a year. Interest-free. No perks. No miles. No points. No thank-you note. Just a delayed re...
Beard Pubes 10.02.2026 1:31
So my daughter got caught up with some 30-something bro with a shitty beard. You know, that tiny patch of pubic hair on his chin that will never become a real fucking beard? I mean, what do you even do with that shit? And the stringy pubes over his upper lip were even worse. It's like a 12 year-old who's scared to death to shave it because he's afraid it'll never grow back. Turns out i was right -...
Congratulations, You're A Shitty Parent. 08.02.2026 5:47
I watched a friend’s 20-something daughter ask several relatives for money and favors at a party. She has a college degree but decided she didn’t want to become a dental hygienist after all because school was “too hard,” so she hasn’t done shit in over six months and has been sponging off her parents who are too much of a pussy to call her out. My kid said her buddy learned that most people have a...
Fuck ICE. Save Grandma. 05.02.2026 4:46
I had another fever dream last night that made me realize how stupid we are. Look, I’m going to lay this out for the uninformed one more time, but let’s be real: MAGA is currently doing a backflip into a dumpster fire. While you were trying to figure out if your neighbor’s TikTok dance was a deepfake, the global fraud industry officially hit its “industrial revolution” phase. Between 2024 and earl...
America Wasn’t Invented by the British—It Was Rescued From Them 30.11.2025 16:40
Let’s have an honest conversation about Americans and American innovation. People love to argue about who built this country, usually while wearing a red hat with white embroidery made in China and shouting at a phone designed in California by a guy from Syria’s son. If we look at the raw data, the historical narrative is clear: The United States is the greatest group project in human history, spe...
Are You Not Entertained? 03.11.2025 24:49
GTA 6 is shaping up to be the ultimate clusterfuck of hype and hypocrisy. Woke whiners are losing their minds over a Latina protagonist and toned-down transphobic jokes, screaming about DEI training ruining the series’ sacred satire. And YouTube’s new puritan rules are ready to demonetize every violent clip. It’s all set in a Florida parody that’s bound to piss off everyone except those parents ra...
The Satanification of Santa Claus and Christmas 01.11.2025 9:17
Thanks for killing 30 million trees a year. Jesus must fucking HATE pine trees! A friend of mine sent a comical photo of Santa Claus decked out in his most aggressively red holiday splendor, complete with the letters “Santa” misspelled by some Asian marketing bro as the name “Satan.” At first, I didn’t think much of it. Then, as one of our kids planted her ass on our couch and waited for someone t...
The Tragic Lifecycle of a Southern Girl: Southern Belle Hell 11.10.2025 9:24
I’ve lived in the deep south for about a year now. Yes, it is exactly the shitshow you’ve heard it is. These people are truly fucking stupid. Descendents of the original British North American terrorist invaders with names like Mason, Dixon, Smith, and Wesson, they’ve become fat, lazy, and incredibly wealthy, finally selling off the family farms to HOA developers. Now that they’re floating in cash...
The “Future” of Dating: A Reality Check from a Three-Time Victim 06.10.2025 8:23
Look, we need to talk about sex robots. Not because they’re going to “replace women” in relationships, though, let’s be honest, after what I’ve been through, that wouldn’t break my heart. But because the hype around them exposes the raw underbelly of relationships, tech fantasies, and the endless ways humans disappoint each other. As someone who’s been divorced three times—my first wife trapping m...
Is Bigfoot and Other Paranormal Real, or Our Imagination? 04.10.2025 11:16
Basically, Paranormal is the new catch-all term for shit we can’t explain with our current rulebook for the universe. Think of it as the universe’s spam folder. It’s probably just Matrix glitches, fortune teller scams, and our own brains fucking with us trying to establish patterns in chaos. Know what’s REALLY paranormal? Some asshole is actually convinced there's a Nigerian prince who really does...
Final Destination: The Fleecing of the Dead 16.08.2025 10:44
So, my buddy’s mother-in-law swung by the other day, announcing she was in town for a very special "D" occasion. My first thought? Divorce, deportation, or maybe a good old-fashioned deposition. This may seem harsh, but if you knew her, you'd agree. This bitch deserved any of those three. But, nope. It was the OTHER D-word. The "D" all of us must face at one point or another. Death. Death is a fuc...
America is So Sweet: What's The Deal with HFCS? 09.08.2025 20:05
We've got some very serious-sounding researchers hinting that the delightful concoction, HFCS, might be the obesity super-villain we've all been waiting for, possibly even giving cancer cells a turbo boost. Then you have the "it's all just sugar, bro, relax" squad. Who's right? Who fucking knows. Grab a Coke and a smile and let’s talk about that magical liquid gold that sweetens your favorite can...
A History of Throwing Down 🥊 09.08.2025 13:45
You may have heard in one of my many Dad Talks that humanity has barely reached adolescence. Our human minds are still evolving. We simply aren’t fully developed yet, and we’re not mature enough to grow to the next level. We’re about at the maturity of a really smart six year-old dog. Shit, that dog is smarter than we are. How do I know this? The main example I cite is our undying love affair with...
The Great Evasion: How a Crisis of Accountability Has Eroded America 08.08.2025 18:53
There’s a corrosive shift happening in our society. It’s in the halls of government, the boardrooms of corporations, the classrooms of our schools, and even in the way we interact with one another. It’s the slow, creeping death of accountability. The simple, foundational principle that actions have consequences, and that someone, somewhere, needs to take responsibility for them, is fading. The buc...
Running, Cats, and the Quiet Secession of the American Woman 03.08.2025 8:55
Let's be honest, American sexuality is a goddamn dumpster fire. We’re all walking on eggshells, so terrified of being the next weirdo on the neighborhood watch Facebook page that we can’t even have a normal conversation. The other day, a teenage girl started chatting with me while I was walking my dog. She was just being friendly, and I was scared shitless. What would the neighbors think? An adult...
Holy Hell, What If Your Crucifix IS the Mark of the Beast? 03.08.2025 4:33
Alright, buckle up fuckfaces, because I’m fixin’ to toss out a theological hand grenade: what if the freakin' crucifix, that sparkly bit of gold hanging around your grandma's neck and adorning every Catholic church known to humankind, is actually the goddamn Mark of the Beast? Now, for anyone who's actually cracked open the dusty pages of Revelation, or even just skimmed the Wikipedia entry, this...
Abortion Is A Blessing. 03.08.2025 5:30
Alright, let's get this shit straight. You want to talk about the grand, holy crusade of the Republican party? The "pro-life" party? Give me a god damned break. They are so incredibly, hypocritically "pro-life." But let's be real, the second that fetus takes its first breath, they don't give a flying fuck. Their concern has a nine-month expiration date. What about the lives of the mothers and fath...
History is Bullshit. 02.08.2025 7:48
You’ve heard the line a million times, probably from a high school history teacher trying to sound profound: “History is written by the victors.” Many love to attribute this zinger to Winston Churchill. Cute. Except, Churchill likely never said it. The sentiment is ancient, but this specific wording is a historical mess. There are earlier versions, like a French one from 1842 that translates to, “...
Quick! Someone Call ICE on Hollywood. 02.08.2025 6:40
It feels like a slap in the face to all the amazing American actors out there who are struggling to find work. I've got a bone to pick, and it's a biggun. You want to talk about the American obsession with anyone who isn't American? It's not a conspiracy theory; it's a fact. It's like casting agents have a secret bingo card, and the first square to fill is "Not a born and bred American." My friend...
The TRUTH About The American Engineering Shortage. 02.08.2025 3:43
Let's cut through the shit and get to the real story behind America's "engineering shortage." The problem isn't only that our education system is a complete fucking failure; it's that we've fine-tuned it to produce exactly the kind of workforce billionaires wanted. We've got a pipeline that’s less of a talent conduit and more of leaking fire hose. The Glorified Daycare: Education by Standardized T...
