Attempting to predict the cities kids will want to move to when they grow up and meditating on why entertainment has been stagnant for two decades — and what change actually looks like.
I enjoy these a lot and I want to become a paying subscriber. Will you rethink leaving Substack? I'd be happier to pay if I knew you wouldn't be bolting to another platform at some point.
thank you, ross!!! and, yes, the ~ leaving substack ~ is on the agenda — but won't happen until we have 10K subs, which we're more than halfway too. another idea: there are some people who pay through ko-fi or paypal, which i then comp a paid subscription for. in any event...thank you for reading either way!!
oh these are great — and certainly confirms that there's something in the water!!!! i mean...it all boils down to execs who need to log off / get a life / someone needs to ratio them out of their jobs.
