I’ve never paywalled my articles because I know many of my readers are on disability & can’t afford it.
I’m in a terrible situation with my housing and may need to ask for help.
What’s the best way to do this? Paywall? Wish list? Go fund me?
Would folks be bothered by a GFM in lieu of a paywall?

The fact that we are debating whether it’s ok that Trump calls female reporters “piggy”, “ugly” and “stupid” shows just how far we’ve fallen.
This shouldn’t be up for debate.

Talking about tough tasks… I have to do some legal stuff that will involve exposure to extremely personally traumatising material…

1) Interesting interview of Prof. Brian Hughes by David Tuller.
In his new book Hughes argues that psychology is not woke but that its methods are essentially conservative because it focuses on an individualistic view and ignores social context.

Not only is Tom Hanks protecting his own health, by masking up he’s protecting everyone else on public transit.
Many people taking the subway don’t have paid time off.
They don’t have the good healthcare someone like Hanks can afford.
Masking is community care.

When asked by Stephen Colbert why he was wearing a mask in public, Tom Hanks said..
“I’ve had Covid enough in my life I don’t need to do that again. I’m wearing this for health reasons”
More celebrities need to speak out like this.
