As I did last year, I’m shutting the site down for a week or whatever to outrageously demand that readers pay me for my services.
I’m probably going to keep publishing some stuff on the site throughout this period, actually, though I’m not committing to it. It will not be a full day’s work, but maybe something.
Basically, this site does not have any advertisements, because even goofy crypto scams and penis pill companies are prevented from doing business with me. So it does not make any money. I just do this because I like it. I have to work a different job to pay rent.
But the site should pay for itself. At least that should happen. There should be enough donations to make that happen.
Frankly, the site should also pay for all the expenses I’ve suffered as a result of running it, though I don’t think it will. I don’t talk about my personal situation, but I’m sure people have read some things about it elsewhere, and trust me, this has been incredibly expensive. You do not want to hear a number, because it will make you sick. The entire machine of the system came down on me very hard and never let up.
I’m not going into the details. But it’s heavy shit.
I’m not saying my life is your responsibility or whatever. For many of you, your lives are my responsibility because I saved you from the deadly coronavirus “vaccine.” But that is neither here nor there. I’m not demanding money, I’m asking that in your kindness, you send some money, because I need it and the site needs it.
You’re not just supporting me, but the entire right-wing media infrastructure, which as everyone has noticed, does nothing but take my talking points. I’m not upset about that, I put them out there for people to use, but it can be personally frustrating that I make no money at all because I’m banned from everything while other people make a lot of money using my materials.
Last year when I did this, I allowed people to contact me, through email or the encrypted Session messenger (DOWNLOAD HERE), and get a unique Bitcoin address.
My information on that is:
Session ID:
05572128ee1967255089ef79d7ad652b5c6765665b8299e294e05a37ac96dd0936
Email:

Obviously, all my old BTC addresses still work, if you have one, though you can also request a new one. I can also do whatever other crypto, ETH or SOL or whatever. Anything where it is easy to make unlimited addresses.
You can also send Monero, which should be easier but maybe is not.
Monero Address:

I assume everyone has Bitcoin, because I’ve been advising it since 2014 and I hope you’ve all listened to me and gotten rich. If not, now is a good time to start, and you can get your own and send some to me at the same time. The addresses I will send will be CLEAN, never before used addresses, which will never be used again for any other purpose than to exchange them for Monero (which is untraceable).
This means that you can send from CashApp, Venmo, Coinbase, Kraken, Binance, or whatever, and no one will ever know where the money has gone. Anyone tracing it (and no one will have a reason to do so, but if they did) would just find a blank address that exchanged Bitcoin for Monero.
We did this last year and then again in mid-year, and anyone can go check their transaction on the blockchain. Most of the smaller amounts have not even been moved, but those that were moved were never mixed with other money and went to a Monero exchange, anonymously.
Earlier this year, I did a one-time deal where I would talk to people on the phone for $500. I’m not doing that again. It was too much. It was so many people. I enjoyed it, don’t get me wrong, I didn’t have a single bad call, but it was hardcore and I can’t manage that again. Unless I missed someone who had contacted me before (which I don’t think happened but is possible given the number of messages I was dealing with), in which case just send me a message this time and we can do a call after the holidays. But I’m not doing that offer again unless someone sends some insane amount of money, because it’s just too much.
Frankly, everything is too much. These are very strange life choices I’ve made. But things have gotten easier over time, because you just start to care a lot less about anything as you age.
I still love what I do here and I’m thankful for the opportunity to do it, I’m thankful for the influence I have over the narrative, even though I don’t get credit for it from most people, and I do believe I will be rewarded for my work by God. God is the only reason I do any of this at this point. It started out being fun, and there was also a path to make good money, but now there is no money and though it can be fun, the amount of nonsense that goes along with it is weightier than the fun. But God gave me a gift for analyzing these things, and though I doubt I’ll be rewarded in this life, I have faith I will be rewarded in the life to come.
Wait, I Just Got an Idea
The phone call was the only thing I could think of to offer in exchange for a donation before, but how about this: I’ll write an article based on a topic you demand. For $1,000. This time we’re doing $1,000, because the site is well into the hole.
So just add the topic to the note you send and I’ll write the thing in the first quarter of 2025.
Also, small amounts of money are very welcome. Last time, the donations under $100 amounted to more than the total of donations over $100 (except when I did the phone call thing).
Thanks to Everyone
Thank you to everyone that contributes and has contributed. Also, thanks to those who just read and will never send coins. Thanks also to the haters who come to read.
I love you all.
Despite the troubles, being the head of this site that has many people reading my words is the greatest honor I could imagine, and I thank God for it every day.
It’s gay, I assume, but I just thought of that Jason Isbell song about work.
I wish I never thought of why I’m here or where it hurts. But I am definitely luck to have the work.
Less gay is Galactic Pot Healer, a Philip K. Dick book about the meaning that men find in work.
I’m going to catch up on some scifi novels over the break. I think I’m gonna do Michael Moorcock, even whilst I’m sure it’s not going to hit like it did when I was 19. I recently read he was part of the campaign to censor Gor. But I already went through Gor earlier this year. (At least, I read to the point where it got too gross even for me. The quality also dropped quite a bit when he started appealing exclusively to hardened sex slave fetishists who literally do it in real life.)
I suspect I will find that Elric is no Guts (who, to be fair, was just the nip Conan).
I’m a pro-work website, and communists on Twitch make huge money by being pushed by Amazon.
But it’s the Christmas season, and all I can be is thankful.
If you want something of mine to read while I’m gone, you can check out this compilation of favorite articles of mine that some people put together:
Best of Anglin Internet Webforum Thread
(You can also join that forum, if you want, or read it without joining. I endorse it. They don’t require a real email, but you have to be a “newfag” for some vetting period where you can’t post on the main forum.)
It’s funny, I’ve been writing this stuff for 13 years, and there’s not really anything I would redact at this point (other than maybe some mistakes related to current events, but nothing philosophical). Probably, you should be skeptical of people who constantly change their views. My views haven’t changed since 2011, nor have I ever had any reason to want to change any of it.
I’ve got some hilarious schemes for the new year. Although I think I’ll be back before then. I don’t really celebrate New Year’s, which hardened Irishmen refer to as “The Amateur Olympics.”
I actually stopped drinking recently (due to circumstance, not self-help). I will tell you that story sometime. It’s bonkers.
Please remember that New Year’s Resolutions actually make it less likely that you will accomplish whatever goal you set. That applies especially to “getting in shape” (a misnomer), but also presumably applies to everything else.
So, yeah. Just consider donating. Please. It really helps a lot.
