Hi friends! Welcome back to After School ✨weekend edition✨, an extra long and extra opinionated youth culture digest for paid subscribers.

It’s a beautiful Sunday — and it’s Father’s Day; happy Father’s Day to the fathers — and I know your time is valuable, so let’s just jump right into it!

Today, we’re talking about:

• The “Glossier and Allbirds” for books

• “The world’s largest PR firm by revenue” just named its first “ZEO” (as in, like, Gen Z CEO…yeah)

• The skincare launch that sold out immediately

• How Disney mastered TikTok

• Why Netflix is getting backlash on Twitter (this time it has nothing to do with layoffs!)

• Converse > Docs

• Hypergamy

• Multiverses

• And so much more!
