I don’t see a lot of these, but anytime a crypto bro sneaks in, it’s an instant block or mute for me. I have zero use for anyone pitching unregulated Monopoly money.

Oh god! The anti vaxxers! I had to block many of them.

They are legion. It's truly frightening how far many people have devolved when it comes to medical literacy in this country.

I run into this oddity. I read The Friendly Atheist. Everyday a xitian feels the need to interfere with our fun times.

I don't go on the Pope's website to share the wonders of atheism.

Have fun finding tiny gym equipment! Don't neglect the pinky.

I’ve tripped over a few flakeywoo antivax and heal yourself with mind rays stacks too I’ve chosen to block. Life’s too short.

(... okay yeah those of their readers, statistically, especially.)

P.S... I had to go back and add a section for the anti vax crowd because I could hardly believe I left them out once you said that lol.

🤭 oh yes, the anti vax quacks are also an instant block for me.

Great article, Blue! I don't scroll Substack, so don't have that problem. I only go to Wonkette, Meidas, Evan's, SER's, this one (of course) and a few others I know through Wonkette. I had cancelled my paid subscription when I read that you are giving it up, but have now renewed it so that your Substack will be promoted by the PTB. Would you rather I go through Paypal?

Yes PayPal would be better than through the app. Eventually I'll probably go off paid subs completely but when I do that I don't want it to be as much of a hassle. Glad you liked the article ☺️

OK. I’ll set up recurring payments through PayPal.

Not so awesome - I couldn't figure out monthly payments, so will send yearly payments. A payment has just been sent to you. I have a spreadsheet that I use to keep up with subscriptions, and this old school system works very well for me. 😁

You're not the only person who's told me they couldn't figure out how to do recurring payments to an individual, so don't feel too badly about that lol. And thank you Linda. You are a peach ❤️🫂

That was hilarious Blue! Very funny. I haven’t seen any “ block this quick” posts. I still think it is an author thing. YOU are the dangerous ones with all that “sedition” going on.

Love this, protect your peace of mind!

A while back, I spent some time blocking everyone the morons subscribed to before blocking them as well. The algorithm seems to have caught on and I don’t see much nonsense anymore.

Gosh I wish it would catch on that I don't want that shit either lol. Seems like some days the more of it I block, the more gets sent my way.

As u know, I love to make a fool out of every moron who tries to tussle with me. It’s the internet version of putting them in the stocks. I’ll screenshot n copy their links for….posterity….then block em. I’m a cat who plays with the mouse before beheading it.

I guess they'll have to suck it up and take it for the home team if that happens. I'm lucky that I don't have to worry about that anymore and I'll feel badly for the other women who didn't choose this but I'll never shed a tear for the traitors who chose their prisons willingly.
