With a little luck an email went out to everybody and anybody earlier this evening that have at one point or another subscribed to my blog at Wordpress. I’ve moved the blog to Substack. Again. We’ve been here before, haven’t we - throwing everything in the air, and then running around like a lunatic attempting to catch the pieces as they fall. I exported the subscribers from the back-end of Wordpress earlier this evening, and imported them into Substack. This probably means very little, other than you just received this post as an email without having to set foot in the blog. That’s kind of the point. If you really don’t want any more mail arriving in your in-box, just click the unsubscribe link contained within any of the emails you receive from me. The blog lives at https://jonathanwrotethis.substack.com. If you do visit the blog - and you’re more than welcome - you’ll find no like buttons, and no comments. If you want to agree or disagree, I’m only an email away. Going forwards, the blog will just be my words, among those written by the vast community of refugees from other platforms that have made Substack their home in recent times - the likes of Glenn Greenwald, Seymour Hersh, Anne Helen Peterson, George Saunders, Kaitlyn Greenidge, Roxane Gay, Carmen Maria Mechado, and Jia Tolentino. I can see the attraction for professional authors - Substack allows them to both control, and monetise their content. I’m not doing that - and never will. I can’t imagine anybody would pay to read the inconsequential thoughts I pollute the internet with at the best of times. I’ve back-populated the blog with every post - right back to the start (or at least to the point where I have saved copies of anything). If you want to learn what I was doing on a random Saturday afternoon twenty years ago, wonder no more. Quite why you might be wondering what I was doing on a Saturday afternoon twenty years ago is another question entirely. Anyway. I’ll let the dust settle for a few days, and then resume my slightly off-balance commentary on the world as it happens to me. If you stick around, I promise not to post too much conspiratorial idiocy, foaming invective, or eccentric hogwash. I’ll just be telling my story as I always have - putting one foot in front of the other, and seeing where they take me. Get in touch!While the blog has no likes, comments, or anything like that, you’re more than welcome to find, follow, subscribe, friend, or add me via any of the means listed below.
