Nov. 30: ICYMI news for women
No TL;DR. Just the facts, ma'am. Dozens of new articles in the last week alone that matter to women. Click your picks: we watch the news so you don't have to.
Please let us know what you think about our reformatting—same number of article links, more compactly listed. The lenth of Snippets was making even us crazy. TIA for feedback!
Sunday Snippets is a round-up of the week’s headlines about women’s health and lives that we haven’t covered in our Notes or posts. Snippets goes first to our terrific paid subscribers, then later to free subscribers. It takes a full day each week to search the news and add context. If you find Snippets valuable, give us a shout-out with a❤️ or a share, or reward us one time with a much needed espresso (or snippet of win) or—definitely best of all—a subscription to support what we do. We do it for you.
