REGISTRATION REMINDER— Bette’s Happy Hour - A Wellness Checkin for Global Newsies

Please register for our weekly Tuesday Happy Hour TODAY, July 25, 5 pm PT <3

***Registration link for today’s ‘Bette’s Happy Hour’ is located below the paywall. Members will also receive an invite to our next ‘Speakeasy’ zoom salon, Sunday, July 30, 4 pm PT with Ruth Ben-Ghiat and access to all archives, including podcasts and the new American Monsters series. Upgrade to Founding Member for a special monthly invite. Please consider joining our very active pro-democracy community.***

New members — to get acclimated, search the archives for the weekly roundup, which features key reporting from each week. Also, please note the new American Monster series is both in print and podcast form.

Looking forward to seeing many of you in the squares today for our weekly wellness checkin, and just a reminder, each week we alternate the time so as many people from around the world can checkin. Today, our time is 5 pm PT, which is 8 pm New York time.

Our wellness checkins often include special guests — last week we were treated to both Martin Sheil and Kremlin File/Eurofile reporter Monique Camarra. The best part is how good we feel after spending time together.

Also looking forward to seeing members this Sunday for our next ‘Speakeasy’ with Ruth Ben-Ghiat, July 30, 4 pm PT.

See you tonight <3

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.

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. 🥹

I need people to see they're on the frontline. Wherever you live, if you’re doing this work, you are the frontline.—David Pepper

The message should be a fair deal… fairness everywhere.—Martin Sheil
