Never use Dreamhost as they are a nightmare webpage hosting service. First, they say they have low prices. For a tiny free trial time they are affordable then they jack prices ultra high. Then they claim you can transfer your webpage url to another service, but they will never do the transfer. Your new service will say “transfer failed” as Dreamhost says “transfer complete” never doing the move. The URL disappeared, and so you can’t restart. Dreamhost is where webpages go to be killed forever. I now see why linktree is so popular, and I am switching there now until I get a new page URL. It is super fun to make up new pages anyway so I am glad for an excuse to never use the death-page. My review is if you are considering moving there I hope Google warns you with this post to stay far away from their page killing nightmare service. #DreamHost Kills Pages
It is the summer solstice weekend this week. In addition to the June 19th celebration it is the summer solstice marking the middle of the light half of the year. Shakespeare’s famous play about the night helps to keep the holiday popular in modern life. Farming culture in the olden days took the changing of seasons seriously as bad luck could leave you starved.
Wave Goodbye to the good old WordPress URL of https://frozenhistory7publishing.wordpress.com/ as my main webpage of Fh7publishing.com is down due to the URL being the new WordPress home for FH7publishing. Now instead of the page having a link to my blog, my blog will just BE at the URL. The page is down due to a webhosting site migration. Godaddy was the service I was using, but I have used WordPress longer in comparison to Godaddy, and their prices and service have become really bad. In contrast, WordPress hosting and email has become better and cheaper. Goodbye many online mirror pages, and hello more streamlined posting and e-mailing from the great JetPack app on my phone.
Many thanks to my friends and family that helped me pay my medical fees this week. I am feeling much better after getting medication for extreme body pain. I had to be hospitalized 8 times my first year when I was a baby for problems even when I was tiny. Due to a paper work glitch my insurance was cancelled right as several medications were due for refill. Other countries with less money than the United States have Universal Healthcare for all citizens as they don’t make people jump through hoops doing paperwork to stay alive. I think about that daily.
Never use Amazon Pharmacy they are complete garbage with medicine and insurance. They claim they send prescriptions in the mail with no line waiting. They will not give you your doctor prescriptions, and the one customer service number they have has complete jerks working there that will scream at you. If there is a problem with your insurance they have no cash payment options. They lose your prescriptions in the mail and say you have taken too much of the medicine you did not get. If you have a problem at Walgreens or CVS you can complain to a manager, Google, and Yelp. Amazon pharmacy has disabled these complaint options, and has no local branches to review so they can do oceans of bad service unnoticed. Here is the one place I can warn people Amazon Pharmacy is garbage. #amazon-pharmacy-is-garbage
This is a throwback episode to the Podbean Podcasts before we were on Spotify. Check us out at the link below and like and subscribe. The full episode and blog text will be on Patreon for people in the know. The episodes are being reposted so they can go into the 2025/2026 book on podcasts being made for Amazon this month. The episode re-posted this week is on the series for Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children. It should be noted I bought this series one by one when they were far cheaper than the series has become as a collectors item.
*Note the Tuesday review podcast is late by a day due to computer crash and reboot.
It was tax refund time, and my old computer crashed. I sprang for an HP Victus laptop. I have gone back to a master’s degree night school program, and have hundreds of reports to write. The same processors that can play games well can also write, type, and print better as I need that badly for grades. Grades get money, scholarships, and jobs eventually. Part of my brain says “no don’t spend money,” but another part says “if you buy cheap you get cheap, and buy twice.” I will write the full review later as I just finished unboxing the thing and it is charging.
I am glad I got to get tickets for the Friday music show. Yet I had to desperately save up cash to get tickets. Corporations have made every square foot of all downtown areas a money pit. The last few concerts I went to I only saw a tiny bit of music, and had to leave. One big problem is cameras on phones. If you have one bad night and fall on your rear everyone will have a photo they post for 20 years. If you have an abusive ex-boyfriend that is bitter they can take a picture of you dressed up for going out, and Photoshop a mistake into existence.
When my older relatives were in college going out was cheap. If you did a bit of babysitting or lawnmower work, and had 20 bucks you could do everything. Art gallery shows, poetry readings, and music concerts were everywhere and people met friends and could date constantly. Husbands met future wives that way. Food and drinks were cheap, and available in many flavors day and night. Cover-charge was rare, and only $2 now minimum $20. Pay parking was rare, and now is expensive everywhere downtown in every major town. Uber and Lyft are 50 or 60 bucks for small drives, and the app deactivates riders for tiny issues. Free ride home services never show up, and I used to drive for Uber so I heard people speak in horror of dangerous situations they were in when waiting for a non-existent free ride.
Then I saw the post below on Instagram. It talks about New York nightlife, but it is true of every city. Then people in comments said move to the country. Country rent is cheaper, but you still need massive down payment and rent. Next, to live in the country you have to have a vehicle to do anything and pay for insurance and repairs. That is before you buy super expensive gas and parking. Driving everywhere takes a long time so you will want a hotel room to rest in which has also gone up massively in price. I am not the one person to notice that art and nightlife are not just difficult it is nearly impossible to do anymore. The friends and happiness nightlife art created have gone forever with it. Congratulations corporations you have not made being non-lonely difficult you have made it impossible. #music #art #futureUSA
