Step in, dear reader! Imagine: A cozy salon from another century — low voices, velvet chairs, the clink of porcelain. But in digital. A warm, witty place where stories are passed like sugar cubes and ideas swirl like steam over hot tea (or matcha) 🍵. Welcome to our secret room beyond likes and scrolls.
I have opened this space for slower thoughts and livelier exchanges — light or deep, quiet or cheeky — whatever you’re in the mood to bring. You’re warmly invited not just to share, but to meet other readers.
How to get started
Get the Substack app by clicking this link or the button below. New chat threads won’t be sent sent via email, so turn on push notifications so you don’t miss conversation as it happens. You can also access chat on the web.
Open the app and tap the Chat icon. It looks like two bubbles in the bottom bar, and you’ll see a row for my chat inside. If you have any issues, check out Substack’s FAQ.
That’s it! Join our first salon to say hi, and to read the stories about the objects I shared 🐟 — as inspired by this week’s essay You, in Three Objects: A Shadow Box Thought Experiment
