How do you react when the day’s content cascade threatens to overwhelm you?

“Sure,” you say, “I’ll spend hours reading everything from everyone that comes my way. Then I’ll spend hours more commenting, clapping, highlighting, and generally engaging. I’m just that kind of giver with just that kind of free time in my schedule.

But, as the diaper you don daily so as to avoid having to waste time peeing and pooping in the fart locker fills, you begin pondering.

What if I had a scheme, a foolproof scheme, to tell me which stories to read and which to skip? And what if that scheme was provided to me by a foolproof guy like Michael Burg, MD (Satire Sommelier) 😬?

Well, it’s funny you should think that.

Because, I’m Michael Burg, MD (Satire Sommelier) 😬 AND I have a foolproof scheme to share.

No need to thank me. Just send money and/or your bank account details. Social security number and net worth … up to you.

What to skip:

⏩ Everything by everybody who hasn’t read your shit in the last 24 hours
