To the…people who called DEC, there’s a special place in hell for you. – Mark Longo

The links above the video were provided by Franklin Harris, Mike Masnick, Jesse Walker, Franklin Harris again, Greg Lukianoff, Jesse Walker again, and J.D. Tuccille, in that order.

I find paywalls distasteful, and so many people find this blog valuable as a resource I just can’t bring myself to install one. Furthermore, I find ad delivery services (whose content I have no say over) even more distasteful. But as I’m now semi-retired from sex work, I can’t self-sponsor this blog by myself any longer. So if you value my writing enough that you would pay to see it if it were paywalled, please consider subscribing; there are four different levels to fit all budgets. Or if that doesn’t work for you, please consider showing your generosity with a one-time donation; you can Paypal to maggiemcneill@earthlink.net or else email me at the same address to make other arrangements. Thanks so much!
