In the interest of saving you time, Your Correspondent has elected to offer feed subscriptions through these "one-stop" resources, allowing you to sign up for subscriptions in multiple RSS feed readers which you may be using, including some for mobile phones, from one website:
For bloggers like myself, dependent for the most part on disability benefit from Social Security, such can only go so far month after month. That, and the obvious fact that blogging per se not exactly enough to put food on the table.
As well, I receive no outside monies of any sort to help with blogging-related activities or expenses (notwithstanding what Fox Prolefeed accuses bloggers like ourselves of being from time to time).
Hence, the need to raise money to help with the costs of blogging, over and above one's own (usually limited) resources--especially if one is on disability benefit such as Your Correspondent.
For starters, your donations (howbeit not tax-deductible) would be welcome into my Virtual Tip Jar:

ITEM FROM CONWEBBLOG as makes note of a job vacancy @ the conservative "news portal" WorldNetDaily:
A May 5 WorldNetDaily job posting for a "highly motivated editor-writer" begins: "Do you have what it takes to be part of the WND editorial team?"
While the posting lists only "demonstrable experience in reporting and editing" as a requirement, there's another important part of "what it takes" that's not mentioned: a desire to slant the news to the right, unfairly depict those you don't agree with and frame their claims through the eyes of their critics, and to portray conservative and/or right-wing Christians and Jews as positively as possible while refusing to report any criticism of them (or, if it is reported, not treat it as legitimate).
Well, that's obviously how folks like Aaron Klein and Bob Unruh got their WND gigs. Joseph Farah wouldn't have hired them if they didn't.
Which, in effect, raises a point of the offering being misleading by omission or obfuscation of material facts, in violation of Basic Principle 3 of the Better Business Bureau Advertising Code ("An advertisement as a whole may be misleading although every sentence separately considered is literally true. Misrepresentation may result not only from direct statements, but by omitting or obscuring a material fact").
In other words, only hard-core goodthinkers need apply.
