What today's Substack newsletters reveal
The top 5 is frozen. Substack's public board is not tracking Google News' Clancy-Bartiromo-Nepal stack except insofar as Shield of the Republic sits at 4 without a documented new post in the September 4 fetches.
The only 3-rank moves are Noites Hungaras from 9 to 6 and Ephemera from 7 to 10. Aimee Song's 6 to 7 and Elsabratt's 10 to 9 are one-rank shuffles. Culpium holding 8 is the other still point below the freeze.
Japanese, English football, stitch-club, and Portuguese titles sharing a top 10 is the mix. It is not a U.S. politics dump; those boards live on the category script, not this researched core.
