John William Waterhouse, Pandora (1896). Evils of the world not included.

We're now offering Gift Subscriptions and frankly, they've got all of the upsides of gift-giving with none of the downsides. Let's run through 'em.

The Upsides of Sending Your Friend Or Neighbor A Gift Subscription To The Pickup

  • Maintaining friendships
  • You're reading something thoughtful about your community that you know that your friend or neighbor is also reading
  • It's better for them than watching algorithimically governed vertical video AI slop 
  • Keeps The Pickup in business

The Downsides Of Gift-Giving You Avoid By Sending Your Friend Or Neighbor A Gift Subscription To The Pickup 

  • Having to buy wrapping paper
  • Paper cuts from wrapping paper
  • Not enough Scotch tape in your kitchen drawer to wrap the gift
  • Shipping costs 

Send one to your friend, your neighbor, heck even your enemy if they live in Tulsa and want to read well-considered blogs about its arts, culture, food and lore.
