Hello, dear reader.
I will be taking some time off to focus on recovering from several ongoing medical issues that I've been putting off for too long. Unfortunately, it's quite difficult to navigate a meaningful recovery while constantly monitoring this wildly dark moment we find ourselves in.
Today's Stuff Keeps Happening is newsletter-only, but that is always free, so you can check it out here: https://www.skh.news/is-he-still-dead/
I cannot say for certain how long I'll be on break. My goal is to get to a place where I am truly ready to get back to everything at full capacity. I'll be working with several medical professionals to tackle a handful of unrelated problems, each of which is gonna be it's own timescale. So, I hope to be back soon, but I know that pushing it will only extend how long it'll take.
Of course, taking a break is at the expense of my channel's Algorithm Numbers, which always makes these decisions difficult. Content algorithms reward consistency more than basically anything, so taking a break means I both miss out on viewership and losing favor with algorithms for whenever I return. Fun! It's not.
But I know for many of you, you'll be here when I get back, and for that I thank you dearly. I will likely be quieter on most fronts, including Bluesky and Mastodon, but not silent. I don't think I'd be capable of fully shutting up anyway.
As always, if you would like to help chip in to support my continued work, my Patreon, Ko-fi, YouTube memberships, or optional paid newsletter subscriptions are great ways to directly help this all keep going. You can find links to everything at https://isupport.dev
Take care, be well, and I'll see you as soon as I'm able and ready.
