[If the PayPal buttons are being funky, donations can be sent to me at russkick at Gmail.]
You can also support The Memory Hole 2 AND ITS SISTER SITE AltGov2 (and me) on a monthly basis by becoming a patron:
If you'd rather send a check (payable to Russ Kick), my address is:
Russ Kick
PO Box 36914
Tucson AZ 85740
Please be aware that 1) donations are not tax deductible, and 2) they are technically being made to me as an individual because The Memory Hole 2 and AltGov2 are not formally established entities.
>>> At the risk of pulling back the curtain too far: The Memory Hole 2 and AltGov2 are just one guy sitting at a desk in his living room, wondering how he's going to pay rent and self-employment taxes, among other things. My entire income comes from writing books and editing anthologies, which is to say, I'm a starving writer. I'd love to spend as much time as possible on The Memory Hole 2, because there's sure no shortage of material for it. Donations are crucial - without them, I literally don't have enough to keep the site going. The original Memory Hole never contained ads (except those for my own books), and The Memory Hole 2 and AltGov2 will never have ads.
Donations will first go to the direct costs of the sites: webhosting, domain names, PO Box, software subscriptions (like the indispensable Acrobat Pro DC), periodical subscriptions (such as NYT and WSJ), legendarily horrifying FOIA fees, etc. Any donations beyond those will be used to pay myself a partial salary. So please help me to grow The Memory Hole 2 and to keep frozen burritos and caffeine on the table.
Thank you!
