We’ve raised something over $5,400 since the fundraiser started, meaning we’ve reached the first goal of $4K and our $2,500 out from $7,000 tier, at which point I’ll do 3 reviews of important books. At 10K, which is $4,600 out, I’ll write an article on:
…the fundamental process which keeps society together, how it fails and renews and under what conditions it fails to renew.
And at $13,000, I’ll write:
an article on the weaknesses of North American style police, and how a determined and ruthless opponent could take advantage of those weaknesses to rip them a new one.
I really appreciate everyone who’s given. Donations and subscriptions from readers which have kept this blog alive and running. Times are hard, since Covid each fundraiser has become more difficult, because people are hurting, in particular from inflation.
I think this is a place where we tell the truth as we know it and where we try to make educated guesses about what the future holds. Every year it seems there are fewer places like this left.
If you’re in trouble financially, if food or shelter or medicine is an issue, please don’t give.
But if you can afford it, and you like my writing, I’d appreciate it if you did.

C’mon guys! Do a monthly sub. The money could scarcely be better spent.

Ian, I just subscribed at five bucks a month. It’s all I can do right now.
Thank you for being you.
And thank you to shagggz…and Soredemos….and bruce wilder…and mago…and different clue…and….
You all keep me ‘sane’ (schizoid posts aside) living in a society for which it is absolutely no sign of good health whatsoever to be in any way, shape or form suitably-adapted.

My pleasure, Dan., and right back at you.
At least the gallows humor won’t be running out anytime soon!
