Jim Mortram : SMALL TOWN INERTIA

Many thanks 🙏 David.

Yeah, the landlords can be & often are assholes but the tenants can be righteous!.

This is one of the few accounts I currently have that works so it’s really lovely you tracked me down, it’s good to know what people think!. A million thanks 🙏

Thanks Alan 🙏✌️

Thanks so much Alan 🙏✌️

#smalltowninertia Some lovely feedback on both books.

(I’m still fighting to get all my META linked accounts returned but it is AI help & zero human)

Many thanks 🙏

Thank you! 🙏

Mags!!! 😀 oh yku can’t believe how much I miss you all… it’s crazy, it was Meta/instagram that deleted or disabled everything!.

I’ll see what happens this week & if it’s all lost, so be it!. I’ll try to get new accounts & start from day 1 again!.

So lovely to hear from you pal 🙏

Thanks my friend!. I miss you all, fingers crossed next week I can sort something out!.

It looks like I'll have to start from scratch!, these are the blows you have to roll with & roll with them I shall. X

Thanks Andrew. It's pretty devastating, every contact, everyone in the industry but more importantly the fact that I can't reach people that need me daily via Facebook, my community.

I've tried everything to get back these accounts but you just cannot speak to a human being.

It’s pretty bonkers, I did nothing wrong yet I get the punishment!.

Thanks Damon. It really is!.

Feeling very blue. After Twitter became X I lost all my audience there. I dedicated time to Instagram, built it back up to over 10k. Now I've been hacked, as a result ALL my following is gone, all my contacts, all my friends, no Threads, Facebook or Instagram. About 500k of views a week.

Thank you 🙏

#smalltowninertia Thanks so much @petercripps.photography for your support & for your sharing 🙏

Well, I use meta because a lot of the people I document use it, I’m there only human contact often. So, there’s that.

Oh great!. Someone hacked my Instagram so I’ve lost my Instagram, Facebook & threads in one go!. So much fun 🤩

Thanks so much Cary. I look forwards to much, much more from you!.

If I really want to know something then the only place I’ll go is the source, not social media, not editorial, not the media & not opinions but the person & community.

It may limit the amount of things I can know personally as a certainty but knowing some truths is better than assuming all.
