Offprints footer with a publishing nudge

Mark old posts as unread

When on, everything a publication has ever posted counts as unread the moment you subscribe. Turn off to only mark posts published after you subscribe as new — older posts stay unread but lose their dot.

1. Stopped the bleeding on prod — created the missing index concurrently (2.6s, non-blocking):
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY documents_canonical_url_idx
ON documents (canonical_url) WHERE deleted = false;
Verified the plan flipped from a full parallel seq scan to an index scan: 439 ms → 0.081 ms, buffers 82,696 → 4. Since this query was ~93% of all DB time, Neon CPU should drop off a cliff.

The Elephant 🐘
• Originally a warning, not a compliment — In Nast's 1874 cartoon, the Republican elephant was depicted as clumsy, easily frightened, and stumbling toward a pit. It represented the Republican vote being panicked and manipulated. The message was essentially: "Republicans, you're being big dumb animals scared by a donkey in a costume."  • How it was reclaimed — Republicans chose to focus on the elephant's positive qualities instead: strength, intelligence, dignity, loyalty, and the famous saying "an elephant never forgets." They ignored the original context of the cartoon entirely.
