  • Married to the Phenomenon of the “Divorce Effect”

    Married to the Phenomenon of the “Divorce Effect”
    Feb 18 2026
    It’s time! We’re discussing the ever so popular trend on Tiktok called the “Divorce Effect.” If you’re new to any of my content, this is a topic near and dear to my heart - I support anyone breaking from the systems and roles at be, especially if it’s causing mental and physical unwellness. We’re covering a lot of ground this week, from neuroscience to psychology to the immune system, we’ll also be taking a brief trip to the 80’s and then back to present day with a refreshed perspective on glowing up post marital dissolution. Thank you all for listening and joining me, I’m so happy you’ve joined this week’s communal Schauer.

  • Intellectual Intimacy In Your Area!

    Intellectual Intimacy In Your Area!
    Feb 11 2026
    Uh-oh, the communal Schauer is getting intimate this week, intellectually intimate that is. We’re going over the new sensation sweeping the nation ~intellectual intimacy~ so get ready for a smattering of everything - from psychology to neuroscience to what’s happening in my relationship, no pumice stone will go unturned. Time to sit back and relax (to the best of your ability) because we’re starting with the gnarliest knots this nation has failed to address, welcome to Schauer Thoughts. Additionally: I do really apologize for this week’s sort of choppy presentation, there’s a Vyvanse shortage and my brain was truly struggling to organize thoughts. I hope everything made some semblance of sense. <3 Thank you to all the people who send me DMs, helpful commenters, resourceful individuals, and those who just further meaningful conversation along, you all give me hope for the future. I appreciate your efforts to much and I’m wishing you nothing but the best.

  • Womb Envy: Saying the Private Parts Out Loud

    Womb Envy: Saying the Private Parts Out Loud
    Feb 4 2026
    Gather round my gaggle of geeks and gays, we’re tackling “womb envy” yet again! Huzzah! A commentary on the ills patriarchy has bestowed upon society, we are blessed to carry their cognitive loads to term and birth new stress-related ailments for all to acquire. No but seriously, this week we’re discussing the new research I’m drooling at the faucet over as well as wrapping up our short series on “womb envy.” Make sure to wear sandals to this week’s communal Schauer, I mean it IS what Jesus would do. Nuance: I don’t actually think that researchers and writers at Scientific American are writing articles and doing studies just for me - that was a joke. Sometimes people who aren’t men can make jokes too.
