Happy birthday to the dads! My grandpa and my husband’s grandpa share a birthday, and even though they’re both gone, it’s still one of my favorite days.

I love that. Tiny coincidences are the best.

Thank you for always being so honest and vulnerable, Tyler. That emotional openness takes a lot of energy and I just wanted to say that I see you and I thank you for all that your pour into this community. I've been pondering ways that we, as the Signal Fire Community, can help you out some more. Obviously, because we live in a world where money is #1, paid subscriptions are the best way! But I was wondering if we can help you with content creation. I can't speak for the group but I do have a feeling I am not alone in this thought.... You could ask us for questions/topics/ideas/writing prompts that you can share in the group! We could also send you Cool Shit™ (not a real trademark, as you would say) that we find on the internet, in case that helps you to spend less time sourcing content for Fridays. Basically, what I am saying is that you provide us with sooooo much, that okay yes we can pay for a subscription but I feel like we can give you more than just money, so you can free up more of your time.

Ahh you're so amazing. This is such a generous offer, but one I'd never take you up on :) I need this place to be an escape you can come to where you don't have to do the work...you ALL already do so much. You deserve it.

It's a wonderful escape but we can't have the Signal Fire without you so you can't burn yourself out!! We are happy to help, and a teensy fraction of help is no biggie for us as individuals, but multiply that by the number of subscribers and that adds up. Just know that we are here for you as much as you are here for us!!
