Thanks for the note about the $35 annual subscription, it prompted me to upgrade from monthly to annual.

And thanks for your observations on the state of the internet and the apps we use to interact with it. I stepped away from Facebook completely for a couple years as I found myself doomscrolling and spending way too much time there, exposed to content that turned it to be not so great for my mental health.

The first thing I did when I got back on FB after a 2-year absence was to unlike and unfollow all the news and political pages and groups and just about everything that wasn’t related to friends I wanted to stay connected to. I don’t do twitter and I only use IG now for things that being me joy. Those changes have made a huge difference.

Another huge difference has been discovering Substack last year and plugging into the great community of music writers here, and eventually kicking off my own writing. This is a joyful place to be, one which feeds me so much great musical content and has been a boon to my music discovery journey.
