Thank you for subscribing to radical love letters! If you’re new here, you know I usually leave the Friday (or Saturday or Sunday) note free to read then paywall the reading/watching/listening recs. Longer essays (1-2 a month) are free for everyone, and once in a while I leave the links open too (and always I give comp subscriptions to anyone who asks). Sometimes though, I put up a paywall to protect writing that’s a bit more personal and vulnerable. This is one of those times! If you’d like to support my work, be part of a trusted circle of folks who get a bit more access to my personal goings-on, and get tons of fun/interesting/stimulating culture recommendations, please consider a subscription! $5 a month, or the summer sale price of $30 for the whole year. Either way, I’m grateful you’re here! <3
