Hey , it’s Sunday, June 1.

Let’s rip off the Band-Aid: if you opened our email last week, I owe you an apology.

Beehiiv rolled out a new way of building newsletters, and, well… last week’s was a disaster. Placeholders everywhere, unfinished sentences, just a total mess. That’s on me.

I’m not making excuses, but I’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again.

On the bright side, I renewed my Grammarly Premium subscription—because clearly, I need it. While I was at it, I ended up looking into a bunch of other editing tools too.

Final Verdict: In the end, I stuck with Grammarly—nine years in, I guess I’m loyal (or just a creature of habit).

Anyway, we’ve got a packed issue for you this week. Let’s jump right in.
