It was my last free Atlantic article so I was able to save it as a pdf ... now I just have to print out 68 pages to read it :-)

If I was a woman, I would be fangirling over her.

I picked up a copy of The Atlantic to read on a flight back from Philly yesterday. (I had been on a work trip and didn't see your note about the piece first.) Just what I wanted... to be crying on a plane. At least I was not in a middle seat. Amazing piece of work.

Too many linked articles on Substack require paid subscriptions.

The Atlantic piece has no paywall.

It did when I tried it. I found it on Apple News. It’s heartbreaking.

Ah. Paywalls are so weird; semi-porous. I was leaking tears this morning reading the last third of it

Michael Moynihan mentioned the nifty trick of typing “cache:” (w/o quotations) in the web address bar before the http://.... on a TFC episode awhile back. Works like a charm!

I used to access full Atlantic articles by switching to the RSS feed version, but alas, it appears they’ve caught onto my dirty tricks as that is no more. 😞

Thanks for sharing the article, Nancy!
