You have probably been referred to this page because you've sent an email to myself or a mailing list I run, probably containing a question, which was difficult to deal with.

Instead of figuring out how to game these horrible social media algorithms by flooding my followers with dumb content, I’m trying to actually respect my audience for once by creating an email list to contact you only when I want something from you. For example, if I’m performing live in your area and I want to you to come, or if I have a new comedy special out and I want you to click on it, or beam it into your brain or whatever the comedy platform of the future will be.

Nearly once a week I receive an email from a different stranger.
Use plain text email
There are two main types of emails on the internet: plain text and HTML. Many people, particularly in technical communities, strongly prefer or even require the use of plain text email from participants. However, your mail client may not have it set up by default. We'll help you get it configured, and introduce you to the norms and conventions of plain text email.

1. Recently I’ve received lots of emails from people I don’t know personally, asking for my feedback on their books or papers. They explain the connection between my work and theirs and ask me to take a look. The catch, of course, is that the emails are transparently, obviously, written by AI.
put up a post that includes a bunch of links I keep sending people over and over again also finally made my personal blog a @standard.site publication (thank u @awarm.space and @brookie.blog and @gu5.org for helping debug) :)
