How are all of my Libras doing?? If it’s your birthday or you’re a fellow Libra, say hi because I need an update. Especially my Libra sun, Scorpio rising people. Are we surviving? Barely? Same. 😭

Anyway, something that would personally improve my mood is more plants. We’re giving away a pair of Early Entry Tickets to PlantCon Houston Fall 2026 at Reliant Stadium October 17–18! 🌱 Come shop, learn, and convince yourself there’s definitely room for one more plant.*

The 10-Minute Responsible Thing

Life insurance is easy to avoid, because it’s really not that fun to think about. If given the choice, we’d prefer to use our brain power imagining a horse wearing a cowboy hat… But this needs to be done. 

Ethos makes the insurance of life a lot easier to deal with. You answer a few health questions online, skip the medical exam altogether, and most people get approved the same day. Every plan includes a free will, so you can knock out two of life's least fun tasks at once. Policies start around $54 a month*, and more than 500,000 families have already gotten covered through them. If people depend on you - a spouse, kids, parents, a horse wearing a cowboy hat, anyone - it’s one of the most assuredly useful things you can take care of in about 10 minutes.

_{*Sample rate: 10-year term $1M life policy for 40 y/o healthy, non-smoking male.}
