Sorry you got "pushed over the edge" this week...I don't know how you managed to stay away from it for as long as you did! Anyway, thanks for wading into the poisonous muck every day on our behalf. I'd like to say "keep up the great work" but I really think you need to take a break! Less could be more for all of us :)
Excellent article. I subscribed a few weeks ago and I really look forward to these newsletters every day, even as burnt out as I am on political news. I think you do such a good job of parsing out the noise from both sides and cutting to the substance of what is happening. It is becoming increasingly clear to me that independent journalism newsletters like this are the only place to get a truly balanced perspective on things, and I will gladly continue to support you and recommend you to my friends and family. That said, I also really appreciate that you are getting fired up and pissed off about the (somehow) still growing and extremely dangerous election fraud disinformation. Though it is important to stay flexible in our opinions and empathetic to differences in opinions, we must also take a firm stance against this. As a person who tries to see things from the other perspective when I can, I feel your frustration and disbelief when this stuff still isn't going away over a month after the election.
Saul, another fantastic Tangle. Congrats to you and the team. Just wanted to add that "frontline workers" are many. Yes, the medical teams doctors, nurses, hospital staff, etc) are the critical, but so is the stockers and check people at the grocery store, the restaurant workers, delivery drivers and school personnel and bus drivers. As a bus driver and grocery delivery person, masking up, sanitizing after every run, keeping distance as best as possible is challenging. Even more so when there are others who think Covid is a conspiracy. Or they are ugly to us who take precautions. Thank you for speaking truth. Just a bit longer. The end of Covid is in better sight more so now!
Hi. I subscribed to your service about a month ago and I think this was one of your best posts, in part because of the personal nature of "My Take", which I completely agree with. Also a really nice selection of stats. Well done! I cc:d a bunch of friends and family so we will see.

It’s ok to be human. Keep it up.
I’m glad you finally cracked and said what you truly felt. Pretty much everyone is fed up with this craziness. Hoorah for you!

I so appreciate your voice of sanity in the midst of this madness. I'm still depressed, but much less bitter. Thanks!
