Well, folks, normally I don't really have any problems with certain social media platforms, but in recent days in light of many things going on, the two platforms that I have been on are really taking a turn and not for the better. So the two platforms that I was on I have officially signed out of one a few weeks ago and one as of today which happens to be March thirteenth, twenty twenty six, which is Substack. I have a few people on there who were fans of mine, but unfortunately they may notice that I'm no longer on it. The reason I left is pretty simple. There are a number of issues going on with the people that I was following that were on X. They left or they stopped posting as of twenty twenty-five into twenty twenty-six, which is very unique and there's no way to get a hold of them or they're not using their personal websites. one of the young ladies I was following her name is Desiree Fixler. I actually had direct communication with her on one particular subject on X, but all of a sudden she's gone and I don't know if she's even posting on any sites anymore, but she doesn't seem to be. And there are a number of other followers as well who I highly respect and I wish they would have been posting more, but they're not. the end result is I really do enjoy going onto social media when I have something to follow and I don't particularly care for the other side of X, which is this what I would call not smut in just the male or female ideological terminology. And believe me, X on one of their two they have the side that you follow and the side that's just a whole bunch of stuff. I could not get rid of the art that people just put in what they want to see and then it creates this astounding art, but none of it's actually handmade. It's just digital. That to me is...well...I got burnt out from seeing that constant feed. And the other one was, you know...just all the other stuff that's out there that's, yeah, it's inappropriate. I if you want to look for some of that stuff, by yourself, that's fine. But we're talking about X-rated or triple X rated content, and I'm not talking about sex, I'm talking about people being beaten up, killed, prejudice being displayed by force, all these things. This is this is not a healthy place to be. The other tab, the content side that you choose to follow, that's great. But the end result is I've chosen to leave X. Free speech is great and I agree with Elon Musk, but free speech being heavily abused and people's own ideas of righteousness or evil being forced upon me, and my eyes, no, that I will not accept. And the filtering of that would take forever because there's thousands, if not millions, of people who are throwing their evil or narcissistic or arrogant views onto the world. And I just don't want that. Now for Sub Stack, that's a technical issue. The login capabilities all of a sudden with its magic login where you type in your email, it sends you a login code, and then you put paste that in, and boom, you're in. That's failing like crazy with a lot of people. Some people don't care, they just put in their password. Well, I put in my own password correctly, and it doesn't accept it. It just refreshes back to it as if I had not even tried to log in, and this has been happening for weeks. So I said, - no more. I gave up on it. So for those people who are wondering what happened to me on Substack and my channel that was called "Okay Let's Do This". So my apologies to the folks on Substack, but those particular problems were enough to get me to leave. However, that's not the end of the problems. There's also trying to get paid. Substack has locked itself in with a particular company that is not allowed to fully function in Germany, which is called stripe. Apparently, if you have a business you can then use STRIPE in Germany. But for private payments, that is not acceptable in Germany. Germany right now is having some major problems. It's trying to get money from any source that it can. So if you're making private money from someplace else out there in the world, Germany is making it harder and harder to receive money. Unfortunately, that's a that's a big problem nationally. So with those technical issues, I decided it was time to leave Sub Stack as well. And I was able to cancel the account, thankfully, but boy, they are not making it too easy. Ironically, though, is I have been looking into other platforms, and so far I may actually join Blue Sky. But here's the ironic and wonderful catch. So far, my website where I'm putting all my blogs on now is functioning the way I want it to, and it's functioning flawlessly. I may actually add something on here which would allow me to accept donations through my PayPal account if people wanted to do that. So there's an option. So I can receive money for the work that I do, and if people want to read it and they want to support me, well, this is one way to do it. So if you are reading this and you're wondering where I might go, well, I'll add a button PayPal on here, and I'll seriously consider going over to Blue Sky to do some sharing over there. So once again, thank you very much for reading this one. It seems a little bit longer. I'm gonna make the text smaller because it turns out that on the cell phone it shows up as a very difficult read if the text is too large. So see you in the next post and again thanks for reading.
