15 Stories Making Some Earnings Noise — Please Read Them, NOT the New Stuff

Everything after about Jan 10 is dogshit

I’ve been spared; and I’m keenly aware of my privilege.

January 2025 hasn’t been my greatest earnings month, but it has not been a disaster either.

Fifteen stories have held up, continuing to be read and to earn decent dollars, so long as one considers monthly earnings of greater than $1.00 to be decent. These days I do.

All 15 except one are pre-January 10th, the day that earnings cratered.

💩 First, the dogshit from Medium’s modern age

This stupid shit — that no one really liked the concept of — has made $1.14 since being emitted Jan 18th. It’s not worth your time or effort so just skip ahead to the good stuff, the other 14. Besides, even if you do read this dog doo I’ll get nothing tangible out of the deal, so don’t waste your time.
