Hey friends,
Hope you’re hanging in there. Most of my friends are still in quarantine so I let myself get sucked into a Duolingo diamond tournament (iykyk) and frankly I think everyone involved needs to do less Duolingo. 10K XP in a week is not healthy! Everyone stop learning languages and let me win please!

Hope you’re all hanging in there. I’m currently watching the hummingbird family that lives outside my house and thinking about how they don’t know about the Supreme Court. Truly blessed! (The little babies are so cute and one day I will show you a picture.)

Hope you’re all hanging in there. I woke up at 6:30am fully dressed (oops), immediately got a 15-minute nosebleed, cleaned that up and immediately walked through a giant spiderweb on my way downstairs, and then opened twitter at the exact moment that millions of Americans lost abortion access. At least th...

Hey friends,
Hope you’re all hanging in there. I finally remembered to finish up the very last round of $10 patreon rewards, so if I owe you one of those, keep an eye on your mail next week! Meanwhile, I’ve still got, uh, 169 (nice?) sets of stickers to send to $5 folks — they’re coming eventually, I promise. 2022-06-18 02:03:14 +0000 UTC View Post

Hey friends,
Every time I write “hope you’re hanging in there,” I momentarily reflect on the weird bullshit going on in the world in the last week. How is there always new weird bullshit? Has it always been this way? Anyway.

Howdy! I'm testing out the new podcast feed by sharing this little two-minute clip of River and I talking about baseball. This was weirdly one of the most personally informative sections of the interview for me, so I hope at least one of you also finds it interesting!
For context: River used to have a baseball pod...

Just a quick note: I'm about to click a button to create our new patreon-only audio feed. Patreon isn't giving us a lot of flexibility in how this happens, so I wanted to give you a tiny explainer. If you don't need one, ignore this!
How do I listen to the new audio feed?
