Good Morning,
A bit of a shorter issue this week.
I’m going to retool the newsletter a bit so as always please shoot me an email and let me know what you think.
Have a nice week.

🧠 Some Thoughts: Digital —> IRL
Last week I wrote a bit about why you should post online. After MATS, my opinions on the matter have only gotten stronger.
Last year, we hung out in a crew of about 10 people.
This year, there were too many friends to count, a true testament to befriending people online.
Most of these people are in our Discord and many participate in our weekly events there or on X. I highly encourage anyone and everyone to come join the fun!
Make it a point to come to MATS next year!
