Week 6 Newsletter: Fuck the lakers
Sometimes, ideas for newsletter themes fall right into my lap (Fall Guys, Super Mario, Atlanta). A whole lot of other times, I have to do some work to think of a good idea, or even a serviceable one.

Week 1 Newsletter: It’s Fall, Guys
Football is back! Surprised? So am I! Even though the NFL is set to be the least-changed aspect of our daily lives, it’s everything else that’s made the fact that the season is here appear weird. Of course, the NFL is going full steam ahead with its “pretend like nothing’s wrong” plan for this season.…
