REMINDER — 12 Hours Left to Save Half Off!

Last call for the ‘We Are Family’ Independence week special <3

Thanks to my generous benefactors, I was able to extend the half-off sale on a first-year membership through the weekend and it ends tonight at midnight PT. Please take advantage of the great rate, as I will be paywalling more of my work moving forward.

Your dollars are precious, and I am grateful.

Here are two samples of paid content — my new series ‘American Monster’:

And the audio podcast versions of my print reports:

All content is paywalled after two weeks, and invites to our Speakeasy zoom salons and weekly Happy Hours are for members. I do so hope you join and thanks to all who keep this experiment of independent investigative raconteuring in a time of grave deception afloat.

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. Thanks to a generous donor, we gave away six annual memberships! We have three new gifted membership to offer, so please send a note to the email address below if you would like to join the next lottery — tell us who you are and what concerns you most. 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. 🥹

Save the dates: our next Bette Dangerous ‘Speakeasy’ Zoom for paid members is on Sunday, July 16, 4 pm PT. Also be on the lookout for an invite to our weekly Bette’s Happy Hour wellness checkin for Tuesday, July 11, which will be at 5 pm PT. Our July 4 checkin was incredibly special. Thank you to everyone who joined.
