Ways In Which You Can Help A Brother Out
(Updated 05/07/10)
Haven’t posted one of these in a while. Usually, I tie it to a “what’s going on in my life” deal, but I think I’m going to make this article sticky in the sidebar, as a one-stop resource for ways people can help out the site, and hopefully some deals that’ll help them out as well.
Simply put, despite the fact that I occasionally talk about buying things on here, I am still totally hurting for money and essential goods. In addition, I’m also occasionally in need of some help with this web site and some others, mostly just in the realm of reining in the monster that is my Internet presence. Here are some ways you can help me out (and in some cases, yourself) on this two front war. I’ll update this piece periodically, as I come up with more stuff, particularly items which aren’t just totally self-serving, but also benefit you.
- If you see any outdated links or features on this site or on any of the other 39492030284 sites I either run or have stuff on, email me and let me know about it.
- The ad program is on hiatus, but if you’ve got any interest in buying a text ad, suck@mybigblackcock.com and we’ll talk.
- Are you thinking of getting a web site, or switching web hosting? I’m on Dreamhost, and for the most part, they do not suck. If you click the link I used for Dreamhost back there, yes, this one, I get a referral bonus. You don’t need to enter any email address or promo code to name me as a referrer, just click this motherfucker right here.
- I make music. Some of it is available for free here. Download it, enjoy it, and donate if you’re so inclined. Some of it is also for sale on Amazon, iTunes, eMusic, or Rhapsody if you insist on paying for said music through middlemen, or Lulu if you’re still buying CDs. Interestingly (actually kinda sadly, but this is why I press these things on a “made-to-order” basis), there’s only one copy of the CD in existence from Lulu so far. So, if you’re into rare collector’s items by artists no one pays that much attention to, this is the time to get one. =)
- This here’s my Amazon Wishlist. It’s mostly populated by things that I want rather than need at the moment, but expect that to change soon. In the meantime, if you’d like to contribute to my entertainment, feel free.
- If you use RSS anywhere (Bloglines, My Yahoo!, Google Reader, etc.) and you haven’t yet, add this site to your list of available feeds. If I haven’t included a button for a service you use below, let me know!

- If you have a site yourself, and would like to link to us, by all means, feel free! If you want or need a banner, use the title logo in our header for now. I think I have a banner somewhere, but I have to dig it out! Likewise, if you’d like to be in our links section on our sidebar, drop me a line and tell me what you’re about, and we’ll take it from there.
- If you’re thinking of opening an ING Direct Orange Savings Account with $250 or more (and you don’t have one already), drop me a line with your real first and last name and your email address, and I’ll send you a referral code. You get $25 deposited directly into your account when you sign up, and I get $10.
- And, finally, here’s our friend the ubiquitous PayPal donation box. Donations of any amount over a buck (below that, PayPal eats it all on fees) are welcome.
I would also put up a donation button that’d let you pay for this site directly, but it’s the same deal, fees and all, as if you paid me directly via PayPal, only this way, I don’t have to explain to Dreamhost that this site has already passed the “Is this site a porn site?” litmus test that PayPal uses when they lock your PayPal account. Strangely, Google AdSense didn’t want anything to do with me, despite Google generally being way more liberal than PayPal is.
