I killed off my old Mindspring email account yesterday. bad_karma@mindspring.com is now a dead address.

To be fair, I hadn't used it regularly since about 2007. I got that account in 1997 as part of my dial-up internet service in my apartment in Bowling Green, but once I switched to Macs for home productivity and writing, I jumped on the mac.com/MobileMe/iCloud integrated services and switched over all my correspondence. The old Mindspring account had a lifetime's worth of saved emails, but they were all stored in Thunderbird, which won't even run under newer versions of MacOS. So with those only available to me on the backup laptop, I was paying eleven bucks a month for nostalgia and the someday-maybe thoughts.

With the events of the past couple of months, I've been looking at things from my past that I can afford to cut away. This was one of 'em.

Also canceled Netflix and my Adobe Creative Cloud subscription, but there was a lot less introspection associated with those decisions.
