Dad Mode In Dark Mode is a raw, unfiltered channel about fatherhood, philosophy, masculinity, and waking up in a world that feels rigged.

Hollywood rom-coms from the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s shaped how men think about love, relationships, and masculinity. In this deep dive, I break down eight iconic films—When Harry Met Sally, Pretty Woman, Sleepless in Seattle, Clueless, Jerry Maguire, 10 Things I Hate About You, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and Love Actually—to expose the tropes that trained men to pedestalize, over-apologize, and wait for fate. I connect the dots between Edward Bernays, Sigmund Freud, and the modern streaming era, and explain what actually happens to your nervous system when you stare at a screen.
