Benjamin Dreyer: I mean, no biggie, I've only been reading the Times every day since I was ten.

I mean, no biggie, I've only been reading the Times every day since I was ten.

I've kept Wordle, because it's a crutch. Otherwise, I'm out.

*extreme John Barrymore–in–Twentieth Century voice* Now, about these *squints* Washington Post people for whom I believe I actually work from time to time...

I won't say that WaPo is better but I will say that they don't employ bedbugs.

was this a Bret article?

Precisely!

I'm with you. I canceled mine earlier this year because I couldn't stomach the both-sidesism any more, and it was like tearing out my own heart. I once promised myself I wouldn't live anywhere where I had to make do with the "National Edition".

Ah yes: My Chicago years. And yet I still bought it!

I shouldn't say this out loud but, I cancelled more than a year ago, haven't paid since, and still have access to everything online including Cooking and Games 🤫

So have I. It’s saddening and maddening

iirc you can pay a subscription just for the games

I haven't read it since age ten, but I moved to Brooklyn as a relative young person. Have always loved the Times. I ditched it a couple of days ago. I mean, they rendered the pitchbot redundant, know what I mean?

It ain't the same Times you were reading then!

That’s no reason to keep hurting yourself. By the same logic, I’d still be smoking.

I get free access via work. Not giving them any of my money any more.
