Why HN links it

Haley Nahman's Substack newsletter, Maybe Baby. One commenter names it in a thread asking which Substacks people read as soon as they arrive, so HN readers link it as a regular read.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

Chipping away at the inscrutability of modern life, popular culture, and how we feel about both.
