These past many months of weekly movies and recipes has felt like the biggest luxury ever (almost too good to be true)! And the fact that it's free for all on Youtube blows my mind - this world of 'content' is frankly completely absurd! I would happily buy the DVD box set of Alison Roman Home Movies – along with any book you might conjure up. So thank you so much for all your thoughtful and hard work! And please work less now. We're all trying to, and we need good examples to follow <3

Alison, I cheered you on reading this. I'm a Substacker, I'm exhausted, and I'm working on making it sustainable. Thank you for everything, thank you for your spot on comments, and THANK you for your takedown of "content" (did anyone consult artists, writers, and the rest before labeling us "content providers"? Like we deliver product, right? Just no.
