Watching @slatestarcodex and others go off line, I’m changing tactics. I need to move to become unfirable and uncancelable. I can’t be vulnerable to my advertisers or even my employer if this pressure can be put on anyone at will.

I have been reluctant to put things behind paywalls and all that retail stuff, but I will now set something up to allow direct contributions. Many of you have asked me to do that and I didn’t feel right about it. Well that just changed. I really want Scott & @slatestarcodex back.
The individual is outgunned at all times. We cannot easily fight back. But this is ridiculous. So many great people gathered around @slatestarcodex. I want it back.
I’ve met @slatestarcodex in San Francisco. Smart, shy and nice as could be. He’s got to be entitled to have a psychiatry practice with privacy sensitivity for gods sakes. The right and ability to earn a living is important.
