Can I wear that?

Let me help you get dressed

Every Sunday, paid subscribers of the Human Carbohydrate receive their “Seven-Day Carb Loading” -a recap of the week in my political/media/London/BRAT life.

“Stella, how can you possibly do something interesting every single day?”. Infidels, consult the back catalogue.

Insight, gossip, heartache, mischief, all in an honest day's work for a hard-working, reverse Lady Byron.

I hope you guys see me as less of a Substack newsletter and more as a maternal figure, nonetheless, diaries are paywalled because:

1) I am a socialist who believes in public funding of the arts (you are the public, I am the art), and

2) I want to remain FUNNY and FUN.

Lobbyist? Journalist? Investor? Voyeur? Stack my newsletter under ‘media monitoring’ next to Politico Influence on your expenses invoice, and no one will ever know the difference.

Smash the subscribe button and fire up those WhatsApp groups.

Leave me anonymous feedback about anything: https://www.admonymous.co/stella_tsantekidou

Rage scrolling on Tumblr in 2009, I, a 14-year-old intellectual, would scoff at the rubes misquoting Sartre’s line “hell is other people” to justify their misanthropy. He didn’t mean hell is having others around. Friendless as I was back then, I wish I had more people around. Sartre meant we are hostages to other people’s assumptions and judgments, and that I had no trouble ignoring.
