I am so unbelievably excited for this!!!!!!!!! I love The Point and have found such consistently thought-provoking, unexpected, and beautiful writing from the magazine over the years.
And I also think there is something very strategic and smart about using Substack as a way to make content-about-the-writing (interviews, behind-the-scenes insights, updates) plus the energizing informal riffing that is easier to do in a newsletter/blog versus a magazine. Really looking forward to future posts!!
Looks good. I honestly think a lot of people who read The point might like my Substack about economics. I'm going to plug it. https://thomaslhutcheson.substack.com/ If this isn't Kosher just delete it but without blocking me. :)
A great admirer of The Point; but I'm curious to know your position on the fact that Substack continues to allow Nazi groups to monetize on this platform. (They've simply been more discreet about than Musk, hence the mild blowback.) Meanwhile, sex workers and other marginalized groups are banished. Any take on this admittedly provocative question?
I am alao very excited for this and agree that it's become a space for dynamic conversations (similar to old Twitter if you carefully curated who you follow/taught the algo what content you liked) about the state of US society
