Rich Text

We view America’s beloved reality dating show as both a fun indulgence and a deep exploration of our unique societal norms. This is the inspiration behind our newsletter, which aims to cover a wide range of topics with a mix of humor and insight. Rich Text will be a platform for engaging discussions about culture, personal experiences, and political matters. We’ll provide a variety of opinions on pop culture, share calls to action related to politics, keep you updated on Bachelor Nation happenings, and offer book suggestions and reviews, along with other favorites of ours (both loved and loathed). Join us for the latest gossip from reality TV, and don’t miss out on our tips for scrunchies and loungewear!
