Substack CEO Hamish McKenzie: "Email is an important distribution channel. It should not be your only one." then he quotes Mills Baker on his team: "I know l've said this a lot, but I cannot emphasize enough that email will continue to change, to become less deterministically reliable as a means for distributing your work; this is a huge part of why we got into the app and feed business, as you may know! You can blame a few things:"

Substack's CEO now trying to scare people into *only* distributing their content through their proprietary app, not email. (The link he posted warns users away from email.) It's not enough that Substack's locking in publishers & readers with "notes" and comments, now they're escalating tactics.

Eduardo Porter is Still Wrong About UBI and AI: A Response to The Guardian Universal Basic Income Isn’t a Job Replacement Plan—It’s an AI Dividend and Stable Income Floor That Protects Work, Wages, and Democracy Eduardo Porter’s new Guardian piece is built around a fam...

I wrote this to help people understand that universal basic income is not meant to permanently replace all jobs. It's meant to be a floor below which no one can fall, and a dividend that universally distributes a share of our economy. It's meant to provide the power to say no and freedom to choose.

Are you talking about your son-in-law, sir?

How? What can we do?

Lovely. We have foxes around where I live but I’ve never seen one. I am meditating on this beauty as a welcome message.

At least this policy will generate some (awful) dividends pretty quickly.

Save this for when people try to deny that MSM is failing us bigtime.

Winning headline!

She was very early…

And googling seems that some parts of C universe have adopted her, perhaps vice versa. I suggest reading it as if you’re in a time capsule.

And sad that these caveats feel relevant, maybe even necessary. Keep me posted!

Have you read The Field, by Lynne McTaggart? It was quite impactful on me as a spiritual person with a science degree, seeking the common ground.

(She may have been a little co-opted since but still, a good book IMO!)

All the Fish We Did Not See – The Discovery of the Ocean’s False Bottom off California The ocean's twilight zone is a profound mystery to scientists.

In 1942, off the coast of San Diego, sonar readings suggested the ocean floor was far shallower than it should be. The “bottom” wasn’t seafloor at all, but billions of animals. Today we know this as the largest migration on Earth, happening each day. californiacurated.substack.com/p/all-the-fi... 🌊

Thank you. I mean the topics, still relevant!

Thanks; It's a little cringe but at least once every ep, is something that bangs hard for this moment. The young woman I asked if she was scared going to Afghanistan: a little, but we're big & really hard to sink, plus we have a lot of weapons. What are those kids in the Straight thinking rn?

Episode 1 If you're curious about life onboard an aircraft carrier, I can help. I was a rare civilian invited to overnight on the USS Nimitz 16 years ago. I made a series of 7 YT videos; I was there to share the experience.

One thing that's worth repeating: There is *zero* evidence that "substack helps you get readers". The only thing that we've ever seen that helps grow an audience is other authors mentioning your blog or newsletter, which is not the platform's doing. Substack just takes credit for that!

When and where did this happen?

Incredible, Nicola! I hope you are posting from bed with ice cream???

I mean, it trips that place in the brain but we must resist!

The writing is getting cheekier…which is also a giveaway, of which they are not aware!

Feel free to name names!

Wirecutter is largely a millennial-led clickbait scam.

Prove me wrong.

How dare they state day in and day out, “I tried 50 of these things and THIS ONE is THE BEST.“

Maybe they have some Xers on staff, but def no boomers. And we have been around the block a bit and have eagle eyes for scams.

“The decision to add DiGenova and remove a career federal prosecutor from the probe CONFIRMS the case is politically motivated.”
