this is must-read for me every time I get a newsletter. Frankie is an excellent journalist and covers things I don't see anywhere else.
I've shared some real talk on what it's been like since leaving Substack and how you can help. This newsletter is not AI slop and it is written by a human (me!), and I pay other people to help me create the product you receive in your inbox on a regular basis. But I can't do it without you!
it's time for some real talk
