A housekeeping note

Dear readers and especially commenters – ur-B&W has been pretty dormant for four years, so things are a little rusty.

Comments are sometimes slow to appear, but they do turn up.

It’s ok if you make a duplicate, I can just delete them. No worries.

It will take me awhile to oil all the joints.

Meanwhile, enjoy not having to see all those god damn ads!

    Patience is a virtue, or so I’ve been told.

    I’m afraid that I might have consumed my virtuous supplies in meatspace.

    I apologise for my lack of patience last night.

    I’m still chuckling over your “Serf, TERF, and Curs” quip at the old place, so you’re fine. (That was yours, wasn’t it?)

    As long as you’re making some adjustments to the website, how about a prominent link to your Patreon page? [It may be around here somewhere but I’m not seeing it.]

    Heh. I wasn’t having a dig at you, tigger, just reassuring everyone.

    Sackbut, no, I don’t think that was mine. I don’t know why I would have added “curs”…

    I plan to add a link to Patreon, fear not.

    Don’t forget PayPal for those who can donate only semi-regularly. Or who want to reward you just to piss off your critics.

    Hm. Ok. I was going to drop PayPal, but you make a good point.

    Sorry, I was unclear, I think the quip was by tiggerthewing.

    Yes, do keep PayPal, please.

    Have to say, it’s nice to visit on a tablet without wondering if I’ll get redirected to some game in the App Store or similar garbage.

    Ahem. Testing, testing.

    I may be really dense, I can’t get my WordPress login to work properly. It redirects me to the reader on the WordPress site. Am I doing something wrong?

    I do like it here. Please add a new withdrawing room when you have the time. No hurry, though.

    Sackbut, in response to screechymonkey at

    http://freethoughtblogs.com/butterfliesandwheels/2015/08/divorce-status/comment-page-1/#comment-5232048

    I would just like to state that I am not up to date on everything that has been said and done by Heina, and Dana, and Jason, and Olivia.

    But I would just like to make clear my position that *I* am *against* kicking puppies. I think puppy-kicking is wrong, and cozying up to puppy-kickers is immoral.

    *whistles innocently*

    I replied with the joke here:

    Oh, that is a shame, screechymonkey, because I was just about to open a café along the lines of those cat-cuddling-cafés in Australia.

    It was going to be a combined poor-person,-feminist-and-puppy-kicking-café; I planned on calling it Serf and Terf and Curs.

    Agreed re: PayPal. I was thinking of dropping you a line about that and now won’t have to.

    Ok, I think I’ve fixed the problem with comments not showing up immediately. I’ve got some other updates to apply, and some plugins to replace, so there may be some site weirdness in the late evenings (Seattle time) for the next few days.

  14. Ophelia Benson Avatar

    Yay! Thanks so much, Josh.

  15. […] Hanche-Olsen wisely reminded me to add a new Withdrawing Room, so here it […]

    Thank you, Josh!

    Sorry, I should have kept on refreshing to check for updates so I could thank you earlier.

    Any delays are more than offset by being able to SEE the text without a screen full of banners and having to close a pop-up window after clicking any link.

    Welcome home, Ophelia.

    I’d forgotten how pleasant to the eyes Ur-B&W is. Aah.

    I know. That’s all Josh – he re-designed it in 2010.
