Teaser: WHERE HAVE ALL THE SALTY EXPATS GONE?

First new post of many to come on my early-and-immediate access subscription services:
- Patreon
- SubscribeStar
You’ll find the substantial background concerning this initiative here: PATREON REBOOT + SUBSCRIBESTAR. Plus, a bit more background here and here.
You’re welcome to wait until it’s published in full, here on Free The Animal, no hard feelings at all; or, you can sign up for immediate access to all content (podcasts, videos, video conferences coming very soon) the second it’s published. No guesswork, because you’ll never know exactly when it will be published here. In general, I will subjectively choose when, with each subscriber immediate-access post, so they will tend to be out of order chronologically, except for series posts.
Nothing will show up here less than 2 weeks from publishing on the subscription sites, or more than 3 months.
That’s about all, for now.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT AND HOW IT WORKS
Free The Animal is an eclectic writing project about everything since November 2003. 23 years, 5,500 posts, 5 million words.
It's a paid membership blog. Most posts are free and public, but only paid members can comment. What determines whether it's free or paid is when I publish. Monday through Friday, free and public. Saturday and Sunday, for paid members. That's it. Membership info here.
