Hi all. Thank you for all your comments and responses on the rate increase. After considering your feedback and discussing options we have decided to increase the monthly rate to $15 instead of $20. We are also doing away with the annual membership option for now.
I also share some of your frustration that locals doesn't allow for tiered membership rates. I was under the impression that anyone could join our locals group without paying, they just couldn't access the group links unless they were paying members. Now it is my understanding that while anyone can read our locals posts, no one can post or reply unless they pay. That's unfortunate. Ideally we'd have some kind of free or very low cost (just to weed out trolls) option to engage on the forum, and a higher fee to join the zooms.
I'd love feedback from y'all on what platforms are good alternatives to locals.
Perhaps substack? Let me know what you think!
Happy new year to everyone, and I'll see you tomorrow at 3pm pacific if you are coming to my group this week.
Hi everyone, I haven't been active in Solid Ground for a while, but I am still alive and kicking! I now work as personal assistant to a mind-bendingly weird and diva-esque artist-lip-syncher-performer named Fiona Blueberry. She is blissfully clueless about politics and seems to be completely unaware of the culture wars. Working with her is a breath of fresh air. If you need a mood lift, I encourage you to watch this video we made together. Happy 4th, everyone! Wishing you fun/love/peace on this holiday. :) www.fionablueberry.com
One way to capture the woke ethos that @dofaresol and I came up with today: Discomfort for thee but not for me.
This is also fun and from the NY Post, no less. In case you don't know, Sluwa is the Republican candidate for mayor in NYC and the founder of the vigilante-ish/crime-prevention group, the Guardian Angels. I'm laughing that he was attracted to first wife because she looked like Angela Davis. https://nypost.com/2021/10/23/the-many-wives-of-curtis-sliwa/
