【Anticipation】

We get it,Anticipation dudes: You really didn't likethat thing we wrote, and maybe if you tweet at us, we really will see it your way. Despite our expertise and education, that random fact you knew was something we musthave overlooked and it demandedto be communicated to us immediately and directly.

But because we know that you are rational beings ceaselessly pursuing the greater good, let us humbly suggest a few activities in which you could dabble in your off-hours -- lest you burn out.

So, men on the internet who feel compelled to tweet at every female writer out there (not all men!), because we care about you, we give you this list. And don't worry about thanking us -- unpaid emotional labor is what we're here for.

1. Buy gifts for everyone's birthday this month

Via Giphy

Immediate family, extended family, close friends, casual friends, acquaintances, colleagues. Everyone appreciates a little birthday love! Even a card goes a long way. Boost that karma.

2. Create the technology for a comprehensive Twitter search function

So we can search your slimy tweets by year or keywords instead of infinitely scrolling through a mountain of shit.

3. Throw away that Infowars male vitality supplement

It's doing more harm than good.

4. Learn Adobe Photoshop

The software is not intuitive and requires more attention than say, GarageBand.

5. Update your LinkedIn profile

Now that you've got a new marketable skill, share it with the world! And answer all that pesky InMail.

6. Apologize to your mom

Via Giphy

You know what you did. And you don't call nearly enough, so start now. Teach her to text, while you're at it -- and don't skip the emoji lesson.

7. Watch every season of Gilmore Girls (except 7)

#TeamJess or bust.

8. Watch paint dry

Really focus in on each drop and think on the sins of your past and how you can spread positivity and uplift your peers.

9. Devise an effective universal system of public transport

Flat fare in New York but pay-by-destination in D.C.? We can do better than this, and you're the guy to make it happen.

10. Read a feminist text
