Dear Snoops,
Today is our birthday – us the person, not us the newsletter. (A nice birthday present would be to follow us on Instagr*m?)
SOME IMPORTANT UPDATES AS WE CONTEMPLATE THE PASSAGE OF TIME:
Many exciting FOR SCALE additions are underway, creating for us all a FOR SCALE EXTENDED UNIVERSE. These include:
PRINT: a print edition NEXT YEAR (“FOUNDING MEMBERS” will receive the issue FOR FREE delivered to them by post; paid subscribers, a substantial discount)
STUFF: very soon, a cap that is merch. Much later, collaborative products
REAL-LIFE FUN: events of various kinds, in LOS ANGELES and NEW YORK
MANY IDEAS: launching soon, paid subscriber FORUMS where we will also share a stream of consciousness
INCREASED VISUAL EFFORT: we will also be investing some energy into INSTAGR*M, which we have mainly been ignoring
We are thus returning to a publishing schedule of 1x per week (rather than 2).
As mentioned, “we” are in fact one person, and a twice-weekly scenario was a fun EXPERIMENT (← KEY WORD), and we should all acknowledge when it is time to REARRANGE OUR EFFORTS.
PAID SUBSCRIBERSHIP IS (STILL) A TOP-TIER CHOICE, DESPITE REDUCED SCHEDULE, MAINLY BECAUSE:
OCCASIONALLY, MONDAY POSTS WILL BE PAID-ONLY
OCCASIONAL PAID-ONLY SUPPLEMENTAL THURSDAY POSTS AND SPECIAL REPORTS (reduction from EVERY THURSDAY)
SALES from FOR SCALE pals (EXCLUSIVE!); internet selections (also sales! or events!). These will be a paid-only addendum to free posts
DISCOUNTS on aforementioned merch and events etc.
THANK YOU. Until next time, which is now again just MONDAYS.
Love and good luck,
HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Happy Birthday! I hope you get a conversation pit as a present.
