In 2019, the 13th year of Brain Pickings, I poured tremendous time, thought, and resources in keeping this labor of love going and keeping it free (and ad-free). It takes me hundreds of hours a month to research and compose, and thousands of dollars to sustain. If you find any joy and value in what I do, please consider becoming a Sustaining Patron with a recurring monthly donation of your choosing, between a cup of tea and a good lunch. Your support really matters.
