The app for independent voices

Hey Friends, I’m here of Substack, and here is why I decided to leave MSNBC and go 100% independent with all my content.

Substack Launch: Let's do this!

Hey guys. Sorry if you got a notification I had a video up. I opened a blaster of illusions and I somehow recorded it in slow motion making an 8 minute video 49 mins. I feel dumb. I’ll post “my hits” as soon as my daughter wraps up her basketball season. They are currently 0-7. Will they win the final game? I’m taking action on the game now. I’ll have a pod up later for my payers.

I’m sorry to report that planning nourishing meals, prepping ingredients, moving everyday, strength training, fresh air, sunlight, and consistency do in fact help you to look and feel hot - and, to the dismay of Amazon carts everywhere, greens powders only make you feel broke and annoyed 😒

You made it, you own it

You always own your intellectual property, mailing list, and subscriber payments. With full editorial control and no gatekeepers, you can do the work you most believe in.

Looking for a different side dish? This is one of my absolute favorites to make, especially when I make it in a large batch to freeze portions for later.

Great discussions

Join the most interesting and insightful discussions.

Substack is the only platform not currently owned by a billionaire, and I have full editorial control over my content.

It’s why I’m here. Thank you all for joining me.

Let’s redefine the future of media in America, together.

Over the past 5 days I have been warned to "stay in my lane" and "stick to decluttering". I've been reminded (not so nicely) that no one cares about my political views. I have received a handful of 1-star reviews on Apple Podcasts which threaten to tank my show. I have also lost hundreds of email subscribers.

Still, I must ask: What's the point in having a platform if you don't/won't use it when it matters?

As a middle aged, British 🇬🇧 wife and mother I don’t normally swear on Substack but I feel compelled to say this:

Trump you are not fit to lace Zelenskyy’s boots. Shut the fuck up you bullshitting fucker and tell your long lashed bitch Vance to do the same.

Feel free to restack, I need a cup of tea. ☕️

Slava Ukraini. 🇺🇦

We’ve been on the road from New Hampshire since December 5. We’ve not been close to the ocean since we left Key West and drove along the Atlantic and the Gulf of MEXICO on December 19. In two days, we’ll leave our extended stay in the deserts of the American Southwest and spend time along the Pacific Ocean. It will be grand to be back!

From the archives

My hate for Trump is not really about politics. And as a Ukrainian, I’d be perfectly entitled to hate him for that.

But my real hate, my real disgust for him, has to do with his behavior as a human being. Just that.

He’s rotten.

World-class writing

The best stories, ideas, and culture right at your fingertips.

Regardless of RFK Jr being confirmed as HHS secretary, I will continue to provide evidence based health education on social media. We need more helpers now more than ever.

Hey Democratic Party,

You ain’t raising money until you start raising hell.

Sincerely,

A Huge Portion of Your Supporters

This would be awesome!

Years from now when I am dead and dust, I pray my fellow historians will be writing about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jasmine Crockett that I christen #TheOffense! Happy Women’s History Month, Goddess-damnit!

Being Soft-Stalked

You have to hand it to the UK - they got rid of Liz Truss as prime minister for wrecking the economy in less than 2 months. Trump has done the exact same thing and yet he’s still here, like herpes

The target isn’t Christians, it’s Christian nationalism.

The target isn’t white people, it’s white supremacy.

The target isn’t heterosexuals, it’s homophobia.

The target isn’t men, it’s patriarchy.

So don’t take it personally. Join the work and dismantle the oppressive systems.

MAGAts are signing up for a paid subscription, then disputing the charge, which costs the author a $15 processing fee. I don’t kniw enough about how Substack works for authors but there’s needs to be a way to identify these perpetrators and ban them because if they’re doing it to one author they’re doing it to others.

I love our national parks! It is unconscionable for this administration to try to sell it off or drill or mine them. These lands are precious and popular to Americans. Please let your senators and representatives know you want them protected not ransacked!
