This is why I don't read anything published on Substack, no matter who is writing it.

Ghost, Buttondown, and other services exist and even provide methods to move from Substack.

If you're not moving, are you really supporting the causes you're writing about?

What happens when the owners of Substack decide to start throttling the work of left-leaning journalists?

They just came out in favor of Musk and Zuckerberg.

What happens when all important journalism is attached to a Nazi platform?

I’m going to lose my mind.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

I FEEL THIS SO MUCH TODAY.

Burrito for breakfast. Good decision number one. A great way to start.

My ridiculous small black dog Jack sleeping on his back atop bed pillows. He's got on a dapper gray sweater.

Jack is having a good day.

I just deleted Instagram & Facebook, and it turns out for some reason I had a WhatsApp account, so I deleted that too.

Now where am I going to get all my ads for stuff I didn't know I needed???

I got anxiety and millionaire, so I guess I'll be white-knuckling it to the bank.

My small black dog Jack stretched on his back. He’s on a purple chair. He looks really relaxed and comfortable.

The mood around here today.

OMG Plurk! Memories…

It's the best when dogs wag their tails in their sleep.

That means that in addition to being nice you are also wise.

You're so nice! I don't give my guests a choice. I just make cranberry sauce and say eff it if you don't like it!

That looks amazing!
