New video every other Friday!
Hello, friends! As I mentioned in the video, we've recently started the No. 3 Post, a snail mail club for socialists and analog enthusiasts! Each month, subscribers will receive a hand-signed letter from yours truly, along with a themed assortment of analog goodies. I'm so excited to share it with you!
If you want to join the club in time to receive the November dispatch, be sure to subscribe before October 20th! https://no3supply.com
