02 // not a funnel

This is a mailing list, not a marketing channel. Here is exactly what you are signing up for, and what you are not.

SINCE 2018 · MOST SUNDAYS

What You Get

  • One email a week.
  • New Permanently Moved episodes when they go out
  • Interesting links, recommendations, music
  • The occasional quiet week when life gets in the way

No ads · No sponsors

What You Don’t

  • Ads, sponsors or affiliate links
  • A paywall
  • Automated welcome sequences or “we miss you” emails
  • No list swapping. Your address stays with me

If you would rather support the work than receive more email, that is a different page — and the zine is the thank you.

03 // Latest dispatch

  • Give The Dust a Chance To Settle

    Sometimes you really want the things that grind your gears to have an audience, I think that makes you feel better, but not wider discourse.

04 // back issues

Every weeknote is on the blog as well as in your inbox. The whole run, newest first — have a read before you sign up.

05 // Not an email person?

Email is only one way in. There is a feed for the machines, and a zine for the letterbox.

RSS · Atom · No signup

Follow By Feed 📡

If you keep a reader, use it. Nothing to subscribe to, nothing for me to see, and you get the posts in full.

The weeknotes feed carries exactly what the email carries, minus the envelope. Pick whichever you will actually read.

Print zine · Quarterly · Since 2019

The analogue mailing list. Four times a year I post supporters a printed zine, folded and stamped at my kitchen table.
