As you may have heard, Google will shut down Reader on July 1. Yes, you heard that right. If you use Google Reader to read Adrants (or any other site for that matter), you will need to find another way to consume our content. Never fear. We have suggestions.

Our first suggestions may seem old fashioned but sometimes old and reliable trumps new and shiny. Subscribe to our email newsletter. Yes, remember email? Quaint, right? But here’s the thing about email? Email is a direct connection between you (the reader) and Adrants (the publisher). As long as Adrants lives, there will always be an email newsletter

With email, there is no reliance on a third party service to deliver your content. We create it. We send it to you. It’s that simple. So subscribe now. No, seriously. Do it right now. Before you forget and wake up one day wondering where all that awesome Adrants content went.

Having said that, there are Reader alternatives. The most popular alternative making the rounds to day is Feedly. With Feedly, you can automatically connect to Google Reader and pull in all your feeds. Once Google shuts down, Feedly is promising to migrate everything you need over to its service.

Another option is Digg. Just one day after Google announced the end of Reader, news aggregator Digg has promised to build a new reader. And they’re looking for your input. So head over to their announcement blog post and check out the details.

But, again, Feedly and Digg are third party services. In fact, not too long ago, Digg almost disappeared so you milage will vary. Want a direct connection to Adrants (or to any publisher)? consider subscribing to out good old fashioned email newsletter.

Psychology says the person who is kind to everyone and close to no one isn’t always lacking in the capacity for intimacy — they’re managing their exposure to it, and management and intimacy are fundamentally incompatible, which is why the closeness they’re managing against never quite arrives

Women who have developed something genuinely beautiful in their character by the time they reach their 60s and 70s aren’t the ones who were always kind — they’re the ones who went through enough to become bitter and chose something else instead, who were let down enough times to close off and decided to remain open anyway

People who have quietly accumulated real financial security over a lifetime don’t talk about money the way people who are trying to signal wealth do — they’re unhurried, they never seem to be calculating, they replace things when they wear out rather than when they impress, and there’s a specific quality of ease in how they move through the world that has nothing to do with spending and everything to do with never once having to wonder whether they can

I’m 65 and I spent my entire adult life being the most competent person in every room I entered and it took a therapist asking me one very quiet question at 63 to help me understand that the competence wasn’t confidence — it was the strategy of a child who learned that being needed was the closest available substitute for being loved

I grew up in the 1960s when a handshake still meant something and your word was a contract — and I’m watching a world where nobody believes anything anyone says anymore and wondering if we lost something irreplaceable when we decided trust was naive

Psychology says the reason retirement feels like disappointment for so many people isn’t that they didn’t plan well enough financially — it’s that they spent forty years building an identity around being necessary and productivity gave them permission to exist that leisure never learned to provide
