Well I once again made a hash of things! I swear to you I attempted to copy and paste a formatted entry into the Google Form I sent out and it appeared to work. But apparently I was mistaken, as many of you let me know that you couldn’t do that. I’m thankful to you all for adapting on the fly and just getting the information to me. I will have to figure out how to get formatting working, or automatic outputs from different fields into a set format, before next time. (I’ll probably pay some college kid or something.) Surprisingly, even though I had to do the formatting by hand, this was still faster than clicking through a hundred emails, with less chance of missing someone, so I know I’m on the right track. In any event, here are this month’s entries! Please click around and see what you like; people work hard on this stuff and there’s always gems in here.
Oh wow, Freddie, I am so impressed and grateful that you put in the effort to get everyone’s posts up. I was one of the people who commented that the link hadn’t copied onto the form, so I am happy to see that you somehow fixed everything. I always enjoy reading the subscriber essays!
I see Joe Burgo is here with a year-old piece about how he doesn't see personhood in his trans clients. If I were a patient of this person, I simply would find another practitioner, one who practiced more empathy instead of disdain. I might also register any distress about my therapist writing about me, particularly in these terms.
I've read ten so far and not a bad one in the bunch. Several new subscriptions to clutter my life - thanks a lot for that. Luke Allen's "Coastal Elites Agree!" was especially good.
Congratulations too to Erica Etelson, I read the piece and liked it - it's refreshing to read something like that and hope that the Democrats are maybe moving in the right direction.
Possibly, it might also be relevant at the next election that around half of all white rural voters are women, and some of them might have Democrat-compatible opinions on abortion.

I'm glad to know that it wasn't just me!
Excited to read these and to meet the folks who will check out my work!
