First, congrats on being featured and the subscriber milestone! Nice work, and that's awesome to see!
As for your thoughts on Pitchfork: You nailed it, and articulated well what so many of us in the music writing world are thinking about/wrestling with right now. The newsletter/blog's path to viability will always be rough sledding, but I think this is the perfect time to change that. People are weary of sterile algorithms, paint-by-numbers pieces that may or may not have been written by AI, and sponcon (I love that term, btw). Quality music journalism from authentic voices matters now more than ever.

Thank you so much for writing so eloquently about your profession - and my vocation! Also liked the Bnny song a lot.
NASCAR is back baby! Who you like for the 500, i sprinkled Erik Jones and Austin Dillon.
Blaney or Bubba! Bet Erik has a bounce back season though
