I think we can do without the porn convention articles and racy photos. There is so much better original contact on Substack and you choose this one to highlight?
Porn articles? Really? I honestly didn't sign up to substsck to get headlines articles about Porn in my inbox, thanks all the same. How do I opt out of getting these updates? I know you want to grab attention (and you succeeded) but am just not interested.
I would love for substack to add a memoir category. I see literature, fiction, philosophy...but not memoir. I know I can search, but a category would be great.
I've been reading (& obsessing over) Jane Ratcliffe's Beyond this week. She usually has brilliant interviews, but this week she published a deeply moving, personal post about "inheriting the loneliness gene." Highly recommend: https://janeratcliffe.substack.com/p/jane-ratcliffe
Read what you want people. How old are you? Really. How can you hold an opinion if you don’t read other opinions? Don’t want to read about porn? Don’t read it. Psh.
I’ve enjoyed reading about Vanessa Torre’s experience being diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 48. She is chronicling her late-in-life diagnosis in her newsletter, Late To My Own Party. Her essays are vulnerable, heartfelt, and moving. Latetomyownparty.substack.com
I don't even need to read the article about women "having it all" because it was already answered by the quote that "your mother does porn" in the article above it. Apparently, women can't have anything--not even a world where it's considered sad rather than normal to sell (or just give away? cause we're so liberated?) your body to some rando masturbator.
If you never highlight porn again in this feature it will be too soon.
Hi, I'm Hicham from Morocco, knew here among you and I write articles about my country, not for the sake of the Tourism secretary lol but to improve my english writing and have an impact, somehow in this world. So, I invite you community to visit my substack. And if you like it, you're welcome to subscribe and share it.

Just curious if the free speech folks are upset by the porn convention. 👀
But also: interested to read about having it all, heterosexual nonsense, and album cover. Nice diversity of content today.

Two posts worth highlighting: "Layoff Brain" from Culture Study: https://annehelen.substack.com/p/layoff-brain?utm_source=%2Fsaved&utm_medium=reader2
and "One-sided conversations with unmedicated Alderpersons" from Field Research: https://agowani.substack.com/p/one-sided-conversations-with-unmedicated-4e3

Thanks for including my story, Substack Reads!
So happy to see Michael Estrin featured! And his report on the porn convention is 100% worth a read--as is the rest of his newsletter.
Well, I definitely don't want to have it all. But I wouldn't mind a few new subscribers. I think that's modest enough!

I haven't heard the term "racy photos" since 1957, so thanks for inspiring that, Michael. Great selection, and a great service to Substack readers.
