It’s all over at Culture Study’s new home on Patreon.

It’s easy for announcements to fall into email vortexes. One day, you find yourself missing things that had become part of your weekly routine but can’t quite pinpoint what changed. This has happened to me more times than I’d like to admit. The newsletter landscape is ever-changing and our inboxes are ridiculous AND SO MUCH IS HAPPENING. In other words: I

get it

. But I also want everyone who wants to be part of the CS community to know where to find it.

So if you’ve been missing Culture Study in your life, there’s so much from the last month for you to discover.

We’re also raising money every week and directing it to specific organizations covering rent, meals, and utilities for families targeted by ICE who can no longer leave their homes — many of the posts above have specific links and we’ll continue doing this work so long as ICE keeps terrorizing our neighbors.

For the 80% of you who’ve already moved over to Patreon: think of this email like a lovely little reminder of what might have gotten lost in your inbox. **If you don’t want to receive these emails:

No platform is perfect — including Patreon. But I’m happy to be trying to build a new sustainable home for Culture Study there, and if you haven’t yet made the move, I so hope you’ll join us.
