Quick Update

On the pseudo-silence

Hi all,

Sorry for the absence of posts this month. I have 4-5 in the pipeline, but as my work consists of responding to messages around-the-clock at the moment, I haven’t had pure writing time without constant distractions (hence the high rate of posting on X, which takes no effort at all and can be done from my phone — something Substack solely lacks as a feature.)

Some of those threads are long enough to be edited into less intellectual blog posts. I also have a ton of links and books I’m always going through, but I’m curious what type of readers stay native to Substack vs those that read across-platform, so here’s a quick poll:

Note that the links/books would likely not include much more than a small blurb, rather than a full discussion. I’m hoping to move forum-style discussion to a more permanent archived format on here rather than X replies (which get lost into the ether) as well. I’m in the process of moving to a native URL and splitting off some non-core content (think a total different shift in content type) to a child-site. Let me know what you all think! Thanks again for your patience.
