Lots Going On

Both in the world and in life. The latter is keeping me from writing here, or on anything, more than I would like. The former, well, if you are not reading Instapundit several times a day, you are missing out on a lot. The authors there cover a lot of ground, and it is well worth the time. Also, since the media detests Project Veritas with a white-hot passion for daring to do real journalism, and they and Big Tech suppress accordingly, check out the latest work by them in regards Facebook. If you are still there regularly, you are part of the problem. I left a couple of years ago, and am glad I did so.

And, yes, I am doing what I can to divest from Big Tech. I just switched cell phone providers as a part of that, since AT&T wants to go political. Hoping the new provider is far less political until I can do more research and see if the small independent provider I’ve looked at can grow and keeps doing as it’s doing. Meantime, I’m saving a good bit on the cost of my service. I’ve divested from Amazon on several levels, though I am keeping my books and stories there for now. That said, I’m also withdrawing my works from Kindle Unlimited despite a financial hit for so doing. Next up is YouTube, where I will be both pruning back use and am looking at removing my content as well. Now to find something better to replace it.

More soon I hope.

Buh-Bye Amazon

I fear there is little that can be done to stop what is coming. That said, there is no choice on my part but to take a stand. As such, I’ve just cancelled my Amazon Prime membership, and closed my Amazon Associate account. This site is no longer a part of it and the disclaimers will be removed. Yes, I did let the associates program know that I was leaving over what was being done to Parler. Plan to do everything I can to avoid buying anything from them unless I can’t find it elsewhere. May play a bit of hob with the budget, but will live with it.
