Absolutely loving all content here and so impressed with both the quality and frequency of posts! How do you manage this!? Oldster is the perfect antidote for feeling vulnerable, apologetic or somehow responsible for getting older. I always find something to chew on here!
Thank you so much and congratulations on getting so many things spot-on, Sari!
I like that something 2 years old can be called Oldster - which maybe reflects yr nuanced perspective on what Oldster means in context of this mag? Everybody, including this mag, is the oldest they've ever been, & thus an Oldster? (Sorry I haven't had coffee yet). Anyway happy birthday to this lovely publication you dreamt abt, then turned into reality. Birthday song voice: "And many more..."
My favorite question in Oldster asks the interviewee to describe someone older that they admire. That question and the responses have completely changed my approach to how I might live in my tomorrow. It’s great to enjoy a newsletter, but pretty invaluable for that same newsletter to make a positive difference in your life.
Of course Oldster is a Virgo! Happy Birthday! I’m grateful to have been a contributor, which prompted me to get my own Substack going. And I am very thankful for the insights and humor I find in every issue. Thank you! Love, a fellow Virgo.
I love this magazine so much that I want to spread the word! If anyone would like a year paid subscription, be the first to respond to this and I'll do it. I wanted to donate a subscription but the form makes me put in an email for the person I'm buying it for, I couldn't just say "for the next person that wants it."
Thank you Sari for bringing this light into our lives!
Oh so sweet!! Happy bday. I'm so glad I stumbled onto this newsletter in the big wide world of substack. It's the best. Sari, you do great and important work. Mazel tov!
Happy Birthday, Oldster! Clearly, you built it and we came. First, a vision. Then, all the hard and joyful work. Both in equal measure. Congratulations, Sari. Love, Margaret Mandell
MAZEL Sari, and eternal thanks for giving me my first byline on a personal essay. The mag just keeps gettin better, can't wait for more live events and vids. OLDSTER FOREVER!
You have created something so special here, Sari! I don't know how you do it all, but I'm sure glad you do! As someone who spends a lot of time thinking and writing about age (Substack coming soon!), I so appreciate the opportunity to learn about others and how they are thinking and feeling as they move through life. Oldster and the stories within always inspire, provoke thought and remind us that no matter our age, growing older is a privilege. Thank you for putting your dream out into the world, and a big congratulations!
