It is indeed so hard to stay positive when these high profile ones are demonstrating do as I say not as I do. But all we can do is keep chipping away doing things which may seem little but add up. On the ereader front - I've never had a kindle, my current one (only my second in nearly 20yrs) is a kobo. I'm sure Kobo (owned by Rakuten) aren't perfect but they are a lot better than kindle. I've never not found a book I want, you can borrow library books on them and bookshop.org is working with them too enable us to buy ebooks to benefit real bookshops.

I share your struggle. My blog is primarily about living off the grid in Mexico, but because I am a human being and things bother me, my beliefs tend to bleed into the things I write. I am not sure I want to compartmentalize, though. If my views of anti-corporation, pro-environment,and pro-marginalized groups make someone want to unsubscribe, I would wager it wasn't someone I wanted in my community anyway. Too political? Too bad!

I'm saying all that to say: You do you, my dear. I for one will be sticking around because I do like what you write. Keep it up! And of course, keep writing about the house...I love reading about that too. 🙂
