lyta gold - writes about issues around media literacy, sometimes rapid-fire reviews, and occasional digressions about star trek becca rothfield - reviews books, writes books, and generally has novel perspectives on a lot of issues that are usually only discussed in inane ways on social media alexandra leaving - the most personal blog-ish of the ones so far, but luckily she is a pretty interesting and funny person. i recommend her weezer article in particular. i have more but in the interest of brevity thought i would end with pi.fyi comrade mdoinurmom's blog generally ambitious, which i just started reading fairly recently but have greatly enjoyed what i've seen so far (btw i basically only read substack through my RSS feed and i recommend y'all do the same)

I read way too many substacks — 350 plus subscriptions at last glance. I was reading so many that I started a substack about the interesting things I read. Subscribe for a bi-weekly dose of the finest the net has to offer and stay for the occasional guides to specific subjects. The recommended list to there are some strong examples I read anytime they hit the inbox.

I was reading so many of them I started a substack about other substacks. We keep it interesting. Lots of great ones out there, but if I had to pick two as launch pads I would look at Deepculture and The Aspiring Generalist to get going. Besides the Zeitgeist Distilled of course.
