Glad you're here. Fuck Medium. We deserve to laugh and you deserve all the $$$ and credit for it. Congrats, Ride or Die.

I'm still there. I do love Medium too, but Substack is certainly opening my eyes to some things!

And thank you Kristi for being one of my earliest supporters! That chat we had oh so long ago really helped me find my footing here 💜

I think it says a lot when you apologize for not writing a “humorous” post and I am still laughing at your phraseology and expression. You have made yourself so vulnerable, not only in your humor, but also in how much you love other humans. That’s invaluable in our world - and pity those who are too foolish to realize it. So happy for your every success! 💜❤️💚💙🧡

you're so sweet Beth--thank you! 💜 I do really love other humans. Well, the majority of them.

I’ve ruined more items because of you, either by peeing my pants or spitting coffee. It’s worth it though because humor can turn a really shitty day around. Thank you!!

After 15 years as a Facebook comedian for free, I hopped over to Substack a year ago. I only have 1/4 the subscribers you do, but I'm nowhere near as funny. Keep up the great work!

Well I'm glad we both found Substack then! you may be just as funny, I had a headstart here from connections I developed before, so that helps. But thanks Dawn! :)

I’m about to completely disconnect from all American propaganda, well maybe not HCR, JoJo from Jerz, and Jess Piper.

All this talk about annexing Canada, did Justin give orange turd blossom some of that BC cannabis? Doesn’t seem to mix particularly well with Adderall. American media is nuts, this is WWE crazy! You Canucks are laughing maple syrup out your noses at us. (I just got a large bottle from my bud In Toronto, I’ll come help protect it from the high fructose addled southern neighbors!)

So hopefully I will live in semi blissful hibernation for at least 2 years. Might have to come out for my new maple fix!

Has anyone ever wanted to be you when they grew up? Or, when they gave up on growing up? Because… it might be happening right now.

I'm going to cancel my paid subscription as soon as you hit 100.

This is pretty awesome though, we are neck in neck and I've been here just over a year. I guess people love humor as much as they love Substack Tips 🤣 Congrats lady.

😆😆😆 I was wondering if someone would do that. Of course it had to be you.

Your substack advice is GOLD. You chatted with me early on and helped me get on the right track here. I'll never forget that...even if your snarky ass unsubscribed just to troll me 😆

Not sure I like this sincere side… it’s like when a moody musician I love makes a happy album cause love or whatever.
