Women know a lot about emotional labour. As someone who is increasingly interested in feminist issues, I have been shocked at how little I underappreciated the toll that emotional labour has on me and how it contributed to burnout.
Anytime you wanna take a breather, you have my full-fledged support. Unless you only need a little fledge. Then I might spread the fledge around as needed.
Thanks so much for including me in this, Lyle! Sorry to hear that the emotional load is particularly heavy right now--I do hope it gets better soon. (And now I can’t stop thinking about what a weird word fledged is...)
Thank you, Lyle for these suggestions. There is so much to read on Substack I cannot keep up. It is very helpful to be pointed in the right directions.
Excellent reccos Lyle! “Content culture is making me crazy” continues to be the topic du jour. Logging off to do outside things, breathe outside air, talk with outside people (golf!) is food for the flatlined soul.
Thanks for the shoutout Lyle! Excited to read these other pieces as well
All excellent choices, Lyle

Reading you, and I read the Bevan piece -- thanks much for the recommendation!
Thank you Lyle will be reading these over the weekend. I hope you're feeling better soon!

Thanks for sharing Lyle: both in the original conversation, and here on your newsletter
