IS BLOGGING COOL AGAIN?

Thanks for the feedback on my last post. It's great to see some of the old crew are still lurking here!

I'm starting to wonder if blogging might be about to have a resurgence - with all the the AI slop on platforms like YouTube I'm hoping the heyday of videos may be over.

About 10 years ago I had a blog that used to get quite a few hits. They may have all been bots, I don't know, but it gave me the illusion of being massively popular, for what it's worth.

It was called http://www.frot.co.nz

I'm updating it now to https://frot2.blogspot.com/

But when the hits dried up I became a bit more reclusive and took to just throwing out intermittent collections of random images, and some pictures of men with beards wearing dresses, along with disparaging comments about their femininity.

Lately the endless sea of AI videos on Youtube has convinced me that blogs still have real purpose in this fake world. They are such a good way to summarise and present information in a way that can be rapidly searched and analysed.

Blogs are an antidote to the fakery, and the endless time wasting of videos.

My main current blog is https://sift666.blogspot.com/

Unlike videos or tweets or whatever is fashionable this week, blogs have had their day and are no longer fashionable. Good, that makes them exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for, so I now have this rabid urge to go hard out. And not to just have one blog, but to have four blogs.

A strange and very specific conspiracy that seems to be endlessly entertaining and bizarre is the rabbit hole of trannies. There are so many celebs that look like they are not really the gender they are claiming to be, and transvestigating them has become a popular hobby. Sort of like trainspotting. So I've set up a separate blog just for tranny spotting.

My tranny blog is called https://transvestigate.blogspot.com

As well as those three blogs I'm also doing a new one for our Weston A Price Foundation chapter - https://wapfwellington.blogspot.com

Now that I've got four blogs all set up and following very similar templates, I'm ready to let rip. One of the rules about social media applies to blogs too - to get them pumping they need masses of fresh new posts.

So as my latest strange experiment I'm planning to fling truck loads of content at all four of my blogs and see what happens.

I think it would be really cool to potentially change the thinking of thousands of unseen online readers, to open their minds to a few new concepts and maybe even influence the direction of mankind.

Failing that, they would just be a pretty good way to at least get my thoughts in order by presenting a few interesting concepts.

I think blogging with authenticity and insight is cool again.

Definately! - I've followed you and will have a look at your posts to start sussing out the new developments on the Hive blockchain over the past few years 😁

I'd say it took a definite shift after the pandemic, actually, it people are really acute to blogging, the shift started taking place prior, but the bot infiltration took awhile for full implementation to what it is today. Prior to it was a lot of shifting into liberal platforming. I'd imagine they had to have had that planned to happen to convince conservatives their voices were being taking away. Now with the bots, you have to try scroll through them trying to determine if they are human or not. On FB, where a lot of local news platforms are, it's pretty easy because you can check their profiles. Out on MSM, the ones that read like a ChatGPS answer, you know no human wrote that. Sometimes you respond to one and they respond back that basically your answer doesn't compute with them, well, you hit another bot bingo. The good old days when everyone was human, is long gone, where intelligent conversations, words written with wisdom, is basically, dust in the wind for the most part.

> The good old days when everyone was human

It's hard to believe we have to say things like that, isn't it?
