Dumb Runner, Delivered Direct to You (No Social Media Required)

My friends, social media sucks.
It’s an endless, time-sucking stream of mindless engagement bait, poached or recycled “content,” AI slop, hot takes that no one asked for, etc., ad nauseam, shot through with commercial come-ons, sponsored posts, and grift. And it’s all designed with one goal in mind—to get you addicted and keep you that way.
I’ve never loved that, and I’m not-loving it more and more all the time.
If that describes you, too, here’s some happy news: You can bypass social media completely and still enjoy Dumb Runner’s 100% original, 100% commercial-free humor.
Yay!
There are two easy ways you can do this. Here they are:
Join Me on Patreon
Patreon, a monetization platform for independent creators, is a nifty way for people like me to stay connected with people like you. Make a monthly pledge, in any amount, and each week you’ll get …
Three exclusive posts, just for patrons: A “Happy Monday!” post, a midweek “Archive 5” post, with five fun items from the Dumb Runner Archives; and Friday’s “Week in Review,” a recap with Dumb Runner’s newest stuff—and more!
As much or as little conversation with me (and with fellow patrons) as you want.
Zero ads, sponsored posts, brand shilling, or other commercial junk.
The satisfaction of knowing that you’re doing your part to keep Dumb Runner fiercely independent and ad-free!
Long story short: Join me on Patreon, and you’ll automatically see all my newest stuff, a fair bit of my older stuff, and some stuff that you won’t find anywhere else.
