The Truth: Any time you quit something cold turkey, your brain will make a last-ditch effort to return you to your old ways.

Since 2011, I've spent countless hours and dollars keeping this site going. It has remained free and ad-free and alive thanks to patronage from readers like you. I have no staff, no assistant… it's just one maniac with a keyboard. If this labor of love makes your life more livable in any way, please consider aiding said maniac's sustenance.
