Organizational announcement
The 20th anniversary of the start of my blogging career has come and gone, entirely unnoticed by anyone, myself included. I did notice, however, that this blog is steadily declining, bringing me to think that it is time to make some changes.
Over the past two decades of continuous blogging, I have tried various approaches and venues.
• The first, from 2006 until 2021, was at https://cluborlov.blogspot.com, where just under a thousand of my earliest posts can still be found.
• I also tried blogging at Patreon. Surprpsingly, it didn't ban me for being less than a full-retard liberal, but then in the spring of 2022 Patreon stopped working for me because of anti-Russian sanctions (at the time, I was already done with the US and living in Russia). Patreon blocked users from Russia and the US Treasury blocked payments to Russia. This forced me to switch venues yet again.
• Since then, I have been blogging at

I have looked forward to your texts exercising the part of my aging brain that deals with the written word. Be that as it may, I also enjoy the witty, dry and matter of fact video Orlov. Any chance of both? Would Mark Sloboda be an appropriate interlocutor?

I've been following your work for 2 decades, ever since the Peak Oil days, and I've always enjoyed your remarkable insights and dark humour. Switching to video is a step back in my view, reading is so much faster than watching a conversation. But if it helps you in reaching a wider audience, who am I to complain? So I'm curious what you will come up with.
