Terms of Service

Summary of Our Terms

We keep this simple: by subscribing or reading, you agree to play fair, be respectful, and not misuse our content. Paid subscriptions are billed through Substack and can be canceled anytime (but refunds aren’t generally offered). The writing, design, and ideas here belong to us — please share links, not copies. We’re not responsible for outside sites or services we may link to. Everything here is provided “as is,” and while we do our best, we can’t guarantee perfection. If something goes wrong, our liability is limited. By joining this community, you agree to these rules.
