When I got back home and was trying to write about Jah B., doing my best to stake out some understanding of what was going on musically in Kingston in the late Fifties and early Sixties, I ran into the riddle that bedevils every person who gets lost in this particular cultural maze, namely, where did ska come from? That strange rhythm, that chop on the upbeat or offbeat, ump-ska, ump-ska, ump-ska... Did someone think that up?

That Chop on the Upbeat

Hey, have we thought about switching up our affiliate links (at least for books) from Amazon to Bookshop? It's apparently a platform for indie bookshops set up specifically to keep them afloat and to break Amazon's stranglehold over online book purchases.

Bookshop is designed for generating affiliate revenue. Our team is working to build a network of publishers, authors, bookstagrammers, celebrity book clubs, and other media sites to target socially-conscious online consumers who are not yet buying their books online through an independent bookstore.

Pros:

- It's a B-Corp and supports indie bookstores and it isn't Amazon, so almost certainly more in line with MeFi's moral compass (at least until a couple of years down the line, when we find out that they've sold out to a PE consortium led by Northrop Grumman or whatever);
- More affiliate cash (10.0% vs 4.5% for Amazon);
- Seems to be on the level, with big affiliates already (NYT, Slate and Vox per the insidehook article)
- Presumably can be achieved at relatively low cost and posters could link to whichever they prefer / we could always switch back to Amazon.

Cons:

- The affiliate scheme is kind of complex? I don't know anything about affiliate marketing but it's explained in their FAQ for anyone who does. I don't really get the pool part, although it sounds great?;
- Currently don't ship internationally (although I always use Amazon dot com links on here anyway, rather than a local site, and Bookshop apparently intends to add this functionality anyway);
- Don't do ebooks, audiobooks, secondhand books, store merch, etc (although again, they apparently intend to);
- Don't sell cookware and electronics and shoes and so on, although of course we still have Amazon;
- Possibly more expensive than Amazon and less convenient for Mefites with Prime;
- Probably a load of other things that haven't occurred to me.

Is this something worth experimenting with?

Updated at 4:04 p.m. ET $600 per week. That's what the federal government is now offering to people who've lost their jobs because of the coronavirus. For many workers and employers, that money is a godsend — a way to keep food on the table while also cutting payroll costs. But the extra money can create some awkward situations. Some businesses that want to keep their doors open say it's hard to do so when employees can make more money by staying home. "We basically have this situation where it would be a logical choice for a lot of people to be unemployed," said Sky Marietta, who opened a coffee shop along with her husband, Geoff, last year in Harlan, Ky. Their goal was to provide good coffee, good Internet service and some opportunity in a community that has been starved of all three. "We're very committed to helping to transform the downtowns and main streets in eastern Kentucky," Marietta said. When the couple advertised for workers, nearly 100 people applied for just a handful of

Jennifer felt trapped in her destructive lifestyle, leaving her empty and in pain. But through the prayers of her mother and videos from Amazing Facts—programs you helped to create and provide free of charge—she found Christ. She has never been the same since!

Damas is sitting on death row. But through your timely gifts, he discovered hope when he watched Amazing Facts on the Trinity Broadcast Network. And right now, this major Christian network is offering to double our airtime, but only if we act now. Please prayerfully consider doubling your gift to reach more souls like Damas—people who are sitting on death row spiritually. Let’s give them hope now!
