Be honest. You are only PRETENDING to work on Fridays, so come to this AND pretend you’re working. We’ll be discussing all things newsletter. Including how to move yours from Substack to a safer harbor. www.eventbrite.com/e/1996742234...

This Friday. For free. You just have to sign up. There will be so much swearing.
Anyone have $5billion to spare? I’m fundraising for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation which has been incredibly successful and creating treatments for 90% of people with CF, but there is no cure, and for 10%, no treatment at all. Please give early and often! fundraise.cff.org/ColumbiaWill...
Oh frabjous day! Another wonderful human discovered the ‘donate’ page over at @erikahall.bsky.social's Chicken Town (clickens.chicken.pics/cff) _and_ my chicken not-Post-it® pads arrived (www.chicken.pics/store)! They are oversized and the color is excellent!

Oh @danhon.com! Can this be as bonkers as the books? I hope so!
Been sitting on this news for a while! There's going to be a Children of Time TTRPG courtesy of the amazing folk at Rowan Rook and Decard (Heart, Spire, DIE, Eat the Reich and many more).

Wow. I mean I ditched the Vichy Times a while back, but still, wow. Also, YAY GOURMET! (or is that YET GOURMET...)
SO the NYT thought it was cool to profile the indie media project relaunching the Gourmet brand here: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/b... BUT they've now FIRED @nzle.bsky.social for it. So subscribe to Gourmet, hire Nozlee, and as ever the NYT can get in the sea.

Everything sucks. We are all overwhelmed. What can we do? Well… we can help others. Let’s help some Brooklyn Park, Minnesota folks make their rent payments. We're going to clear the board, folks get their rent money, and it’s gonna feel amazing. Wins all around! www.gofundme.com/f/minnesota-...

How moral a life are you living when you’re publishing on Substack and they’re pushing out Nazi-friendly alerts to your readers? bsky.app/profile/tayl...

Decisions and opportunity in America are no longer cheap. “Life is an open world game. It rewards you for exploring. And capitalism cannot fucking stand that. It wants you on rails.” [buttondown.com]
GOOD ART FOR AUCTION!!
Fuck it, let’s do an 🚨ART AUCTION🚨 This wee fucker is 9x12, made of wax and razor blades, by an immigrant’s hands in the year 2025. It comes with a short stick. Bid in the comments. (Shipping is additional.) SF bids come with free studio visit. Proceeds will be donated to @carcensf.bsky.social.
To all the clickens.chicken.pics fans out there, a heads up that I've embedded an appeal for a fundraiser close to my heart (every N appraisals!) You can go directly to the appeal here AND see a goofy picture of me: fundraise.cff.org/PDXGS2025/ax...

Own a Tesla? Does a "But he wasn't crazy when I bought it!" sticker absolves you of any moral concerns? Ok, sure but MAYBE the first 1/2 of this article--how fuxed you are financially and how people die in them at 2x the rate of any other car might mean a thing or two: insideevs.com/features/755...

”Hey Mike, is there a new Shitty Pulp Edition™?“ OMG, thanks for asking! Indeed there is! Introducing the Shitty Pulp Edition™ of The Collected Angers. It’s now laid out with hostility.
