This was a particularly great round-up! Love the idea of a joy list, and Gabby's essay on being blonde was incredible!

The Substack staff really are only interested in metrics, particularly high numbers of paid subscribers. Yet a huge number of Indy writers continue to write and connect on here. Well done for persevering and finding - and sharing! - some gems!!

Yeah, they are more interested in promoting and catering for the big people, which makes sense monetarily, I guess. They could at least make a more balanced search. Now, no matter what term you search you will get fake news about covid and things like that. Because that’s their main paying public.

Thanks for the text! I really hate hustle culture and this idea that you only need willpower for getting what you want. Meritocracy is a lie
