readers, as we mark the end of 2021, we’re announcing that TWR is closing up shop. our last two quarters haven’t seen the reader growth or engagement that we aimed for, so it seems like an appropriate time to wrap things up. we’ve enjoyed our ride together immensely, and are incredibly proud of the issues we put out and you all read. 

so, for all three of us, thank you for your support, and we’re sure your inboxes won’t miss our 7am wakeup calls on sundays. as we end 2021 and our run, enjoy our top three story picks of the year:

• down with the monarchy, our soapbox rant against the british royalty
• Facebook really is evil, our soapbox rant against Facebook
• and before you think we just ranted this year, auf wiedersehen Angela, our ode to Angela Merkel
