Greetings all, this oneโll be
โIf you are receiving this note, youโre now upgraded to my Premium Substack channel fo FREE.
Why?
Because you are one of the hero-folks who always goes to bat for me with books, podcasts, talks, shares on social, or supports whatever hustle I throw myself into.
Many of you have already subscribed for the $5.99/month subscription. Absolutely cancel if youโd like, though I will say that every $dollar helps us โkeep the lights on.โ
So whatโs this mean for you?
El Skinny:
Youโll now receive two kinds of emails from me:
Episodes from the upcoming podcast season 2
My philosophical musings (which youโve already been getting)
From now on, only premium members will get access to ^numero dos.
Why? Because these are ideas I am testing. Theyโre early versions of what I plan to write about furtherโin online mags, essay anthologies, future books, etcโฆ
How do I test?
If you hit the โโค๏ธโ at the end, or share it, I know it was an interesting idea
And I take your silence as: โitโs trash!โ
โI trust yโall and your insights.
Part two of the Sweet Commotion series (on why โPrivacy overloadโ is eroding our mental health) is coming soon. And thatโs one Iโm going to pitch to some of my friends at mags in New York, so do let me know your thoughts.
So to recap: nothing you need to do! If youโd like to subscribe, you still can. If you want to cancel and enjoy the benefits of being โgrandfathered inโ that's cool too.
And I promise: this newsletter will never become a spam factory.
The most youโll hear from me on here is once or twice a weekโฆ
NEXT TIME
Hereโs a sneak peek from part two:
โIn what feels like being trapped in a global zoom-room, where I can not wear pants and you would never know, I find myself wishing for an excuse to put them on. Who wants to live in a world of sweatpants only? Comfort loses its value unless there is some discomfort to stack up against. The need is base and primal. We need both a private apartment and a 5th Avenue to strut on.โ
๐๐ผโโ๏ธ Hasta el prรณximo!
Oh, and please share theย Substackย with anyone who might enjoy
Take care equipo!
