state of the saloon
ty for your patience & understanding last week as I drowned in capitalism’s annual holiday monsoon! if it’s any indication, this arriving to you on 10:30 pm on Monday is kind of the vibe rn <3 would like to thank one Sophie Smith for helping me organize this week’s newsletter. if you’re in need of a program/admin assistant, I have that girl’s phone and email and want to give it to you.
otherwise, we are cooking up our january saloon event…maybe with a very cool magazine…maybe with an open bar…
