If you enjoy this mixture of rants, essays, pics of beautiful women, irreverent jokes, gun pics, scorn, invective and all-round ill humor, and you don’t want to see advertisements, horrible pop-up commercial messages and similar filth appearing here at Splendid Isolation, please consider supporting this website either through a small monthly donation via Patreon, or by occasional donations via PayPal (see right-hand side bar).
If you are understandably suspicious of these newfangled electronic payment system things and would prefer to do things the old-fashioned way, send checks to my sooper-seekrit mailing address:

Whichever way you choose, thank you for your support.
Patreon:
One of the conservative writers I follow requested support for a candidate for Constable; I felt it a good cause (and good candidate even though I live several states to the North).
I donated through Patreon as requested and was surprised when checking my bank statement to learn that Patreon had added small amount (~ %5) to cover expenses. I wasn’t terribly happy, but wasn’t going to withdraw the contribution.
I don’t know if Patreon does this in every case, but once bitten, twice shy; I now use PayPal exclusively and if they apply an expense fee, I believe it may be removed on the recipient’s end.
BTW, I am unable to locate the “PayPal contribution/donation button” in the “right-hand side bar.”
