Today we want to celebrate another milestone with The Big Picture. We have now passed 70,000 subscribers to our Substack. Woohoo! With your enthusiastic readership and support, we are fast becoming a big voice on the big picture issues of our time.
But we need your help to continue our mission. Presently, only a very small fraction of our subscribers are paid ones who help ensure that we not only grow but thrive. So if you’ve been considering upgrading your account, today is a great opportunity! We’ll make it a bit easier by offering a 20% discount off an annual membership for the next year in celebration of our 70K milestone.
The Big Picture is only seven months old, but we’ve reached millions of reads and covered many important topics. Here were some of our recent bit hits with readers:
It’s even worse that minority rule now in both the House and the Senate;
Donald Trump is a stochastic terrorist and we need to understand what that means; and
Elon Musk’s control of Star Link gives him far too much power
We’ve also hosted some incredible guests on our Big Q & A, including David Hogg on the epidemic of gun violence and what Gen Z is going about it; the rise of modern authoritarianism with fascism expert Ruth Ben-Ghiat, and this week’s interview of author David Wallace-Wells of “The Uninhabitable Earth” on what’s working and not working in the struggle against climate change.
I hope you’ll agree that great content like this is worth supporting, and that you’ll join us as a paid subscriber. As our thanks, you’ll also have full access to our popular Week in Wins published each Sunday as a way to thank our paid supporters and celebrate the many positive things that happen amid the chaos of our times.
We are grateful for your continued support and belief in what we are doing! And thanks in advance for signing up to support our efforts! Here’s the offer again:
