A few plain commitments about how this site is written.
Written by a person
Articles are written and edited by Jessica Howe. We may use tools to research or tidy drafts, but the experiments, the observations, and the judgment calls are human, and accountable to a real name.
Honest by default
We don’t do fake enthusiasm about a habit, a product, or a routine. If something didn’t work, was overhyped, or was more trouble than it was worth, we say so. We’d rather report a flop honestly than mislead a reader.
Affiliate independence
Commercial relationships (see the affiliate disclosure) never decide our opinions. Recommendations are based on what actually held up when we tried it, not commission.
Corrections
