Personally I think you're making a mistake to downplay your best writing as just freebie chuckles. It's true, that's your writing people will most likely pay you for. But think what that means. It's your voice, not your ideas that matter; it's the only part of you that most people will care about. Maybe keep some of the good stuff free to maintain your audience..

I promise that I’ll only paywall a portion, and I promise to write plenty. And it looks like it will be an increasing amount of writing will be possible as my wife has been pleased with how it has gone so far.

In the ideas front, I know long soergy posts about consensus on the internet aren’t everyone’s cup of tea but I feel a duty. I think I’m correct and the world needs it.

Congrats on the upcoming member of the family! Hope it goes okay for your wife.

If you're still looking for people to help with Trust Assembly, I'd be happy to help: I don't know how much I can offer, but if you need another lackey I'd be happy to help.

He’s arrived! Very shortly after this post went up so I’ve been short of time. I will start sending some messages next week to folks to see what help we all need and what support we have.

Goddess Speed on your endeavors!

An aside, on lunar matters - I used to joke to myself that my grandkids would take me to the moon for mother's day brunch. I have grandkids now, but I don't think there will be restaurants there in the next few decades... Anyhow, I realize I am too chicken to zoom that high! Maybe your grandkids will take you!

There might be soon! This is why I will write that piece shortly (will be two pieces before it, as needed to even the pacing) because with Starship we are very close to that being economical.
