Happy Hour Registration Reminder <3

Bette members: Please register for today’s Happy Hour below the paywall and do note, when news breaks, our Happy Hours often become informative sessions.

Just a reminder, each week we alternate the time so as many people from around the world can checkin. Our Happy Hour time for today is at 5 pm PT, which is 8 pm New York time.

Although the Happy Hour was inspired as a wellness check, where we each offer suggestions of how we stay well during trouble times, it’s okay that we also chat about breakers and fears. That’s part of how of we do this as a community — empathy, listening, sharing.

I’m glad you are here.

Bette Dangerous is a reader-funded magazine. Thank you to all monthly, annual, and founding members. Thank you as well to all those who support my work with your generous coffee tips and who buy my ebooks. Some of you prefer making subsidizing donations via venmo, and it’s always greatly appreciated. If you wish to gift a membership, you can do so by donating to the ko-fi or venmo accounts, and indicate it’s for a gift, or do so here.

Founding Members will be invited to our next monthly Founder’s Day event — please upgrade to Founding Member if you would like to join us for these special intimate occasions to meet global experts. To become a Founding member, you can enter any amount above the full annual rate — substack defaults to $210, a level many of my supporters choose, but anything above $60 gets you an invite to Founder’s Day — and for some members, it’s just a few bucks to upgrade as your original payment is counted toward a Founder’s membership.

All paid members receive invites to our ‘Speakeasy’ zoom salons, and weekly wellness checkins, Bette’s Happy Hour. Our next ‘Speakeasy’ zoom salon is on Sunday, September 24.

Also, a private link to an annual membership discount for older adults, those on fixed incomes or drawing disability, as well as activists and members of the media is available upon request at bettedangerous@gmail.com. 🥹
