“Sorry about the food poisoning. Here’s a free meal voucher.”
I went with an alternative (Buttondown) and a glitch overcharged my subscribers $3000 (one person got dinged $1600). I had to spend time/$ fixing it, trying to convince people to stay.

Substack is a Nazi bar but their backend is unbeatable.

Buttondown offered a free month ($29) for my trouble.

You’d think Elon would be okay with people drawing attention to his past ties to a child molester to distract from his current legal entanglement involving his CSAM generator.

“I’m racist so these kids must be too” is quite the take.
We only want the good immigrants who study hard and don't commit crimes, unless they try to take little Brayleigh's (28 ACT, 1350 SAT) God-given slot at an Ivy away by being smarter, in which case Korematsu didn't go far enough

The reduction is a significant scale back of the Department of Homeland Security’s presence in Minnesota and comes after two U.S. citizens were fatally shot.

"Every time we counted more things, the numbers changed! Checkmate, Democrats!"
Mike Johnson on Trump calling for Rs to "nationalize" elections: "We had 3 Republicans who were ahead on election day in last cycle & every time a new tranche of ballots came in they just magically whittled away until their leads were lost. It looks on its face to be fraudulent. Can I prove it? No"

I’m starting to have my doubts regarding the good intentions of the federal agency that allows agents to wear skull masks, issues challenge coins depicting a skull wearing a crown, and lets agents leaves Death Cards after capturing immigrants.
