After a brief hiatus, The Awesome Things Newsletter is back.

But not all is well. 

Twitter is shutting down the newsletter service I use, and I am not happy.

I’ll need to find a new home for this newsletter in the next few weeks. It won’t affect the content per se, but it will cause me a bit of heartburn moving things (and basically starting over).

Or maybe I’ll find a new newsletter service that isn’t owned by a billionaire who can shut it down on a whim.

This is a dark day for all the other newsletter publishers out there. We’ve lost a valuable resource, but we will persevere.

Thank you, Elon Musk, for nothing.

If you could support my work by buying some merch here, or here,  buying me a coffee, sharing this newsletter with a friend, or visiting my sponsors, I’d greatly appreciate it.
