I try not to think about it like "I'm paying over $100 a year for Substack content", I think of it in terms of supporting the writers I really like, and wanting them to make a real living at this, unencumbered. I also think of what I'm paying per unit time. It probably takes me 30-60 minutes a day to read all the Substack content I pay for, which means I'm paying less than $0.50/hr for content that is at least entertaining and oftentimes challenging of my worldview. For that price, it's a goddam bargain.
