Burned Haystack Media Highlights
Hi Substack Readers! If you’ve been here awhile, you may have seen/heard a lot of these. I’m trying to be organized going into my book launch. I have a new, streamlined website, but I realized it might be good to intentionally gather some key media pieces all in one place as well. This list could be particularly helpful for new folks, so this is also an easy link to share if you have friends/colleagues/family members who you think could benefit from Burned Haystack but aren’t into social media. ❤️🔥

WOW, I am so excited. I am looking so much forward to your book. Your teachings are so important. Thank you so much for what I learned. I share it with my girls/friends in Switzerland, unfortunately they don’t speak english so I teach them.
Lots of love from Switzerland🌹❤️🙏
Jennie,
I love your work. I’m not dating, but I am a big fan of the Deep Read, and I learn so much. Plus, it gives me joy to know that empowered women are blocking men and minimizing the extent to which they’re exploited by Big Swipe.
I have a question about a rhetorical pattern I noticed during the State of the Union address the other night:
"Our country is winning again. In fact, we’re winning so much that we really don’t know what to do about it. People are asking me, please, please, please, Mr. President, we’re winning too much. We can’t take it anymore. We’re not used to winning in our country until you came along, we’re just always losing. But now we’re winning too much. And I say, no, no, no, you’re going to win again. You’re going to win big. You’re going to win bigger than ever.”
In this portion of the speech, the president took a break from giving out prizes to white people and delighting in tales of lurid violence, and fantasized a scenario in which someone—well, I guess technically all of us—is telling him to stop doing something to them, and he revels in just doing it harder and harder. Other than a barely disguised rape fantasy, is there another name for this rhetorical pattern?
Never stop, never change, keep doing that fire burning.
