THE END OF AN ERA
FROT
My WordPress.org blog www.frot.co.nz has been online since January 1 2016, so it’s eight years old now, and has over 750 posts. But it is heavily blacklisted, and the hits have dropped from a peak of over 2000 a day in 2017 to less than 100 a day in 2023, which isn’t very inspiring. WordPress […]
SIFTINGS #06 – MY QUICKIE POSTS FROM DECEMBER 2023
FROT
This is last one of these compilations of my www.sift.co.nz posts I’ll be doing – from now on I’m planning to make this FROT blog an archive and only post my new posts on SIFT. But to finish off 2023 here are my SIFT posts from December! MERRY XMAS TO ALL MY REGULAR READERS For […]
GOING BACK TO BLOGGER
FROT
The end of the year is always a good time to reassess how everything is going and decide what to do next. In the middle of 2023 I went back to using Blogger and still found it to be the same convenient and easy to use blogging platform it was a decade ago. So I’ve […]
WHAT AM I AIMING TO ACHIEVE BY POSTING STUFF ON THE INTERNET?
FROT
We all tend to think we understand what is going on, and all the people who are levels behind ourselves in this multi level learning game are retarded. Which they are. But each time we move up a level, our old self appears retarded, compared with our present self. And hopefully that process keeps on […]
IS A DEPRESSION INEVITABLE?
FROT
For October I had a break from blogging as well as using all social media. I then bounced back and did a post on Blogger every day through November, but quiting using social media platforms is probably going to be a permanent thing for me. Part of the reason for that is that I suspect […]
SIFTINGS #05 – MY QUICKIE POSTS FROM NOVEMBER 2023
FROT
As part of my ongoing experiments with testing out alternative platforms for blogging, in a feeble attempt to get around Google’s relentless blacklisting, recently I have mostly been posting short posts on my new Blogger account WWW.SIFT.CO.NZ (in the belly of the beast!) But I had a month off all social media and blogging for October, […]
I’VE BEEN HIDING UP MY OWN ARSE
FROT
I haven’t been out cruising for rides, I’ve been busy hiding up my own arse. For the past four months I’ve been sticking to my own little corner of the web, my own two sifty little blogs, where all commenting is turned off, but so are any rewards. Confined to a chair with a sprained […]
A NEW APPROACH TO BLOGGING AFTER A MONTH OFF
FROT
To celebrate my 25th anniversary of having a BLOG (and I don’t even remember calling them “BLOGS” back in 1998, I think we just called them “WEBSITES”), I have had a month off all online posting, avoiding all social media use as well. THESE DAYS MY TRAFFIC SUCKS My WordPress blog www.frot.co.nz has dropped off […]
WHAT IS A QUICKIE?
FROT
According to Wikipedia, a QUICKIE is sexual intercourse that a couple may engage in when the time available is minimal. The quickie may arise from a spontaneous sexual desire by the parties, or be a regular or planned arrangement. “Because of the limit on available time, foreplay would generally be skipped; the woman may […]
REVISITING INSTAGRAM PART 2
FROT
Instagram these days seems to be a site where people mainly post mindless videos, rather than delving into life’s mysteries, so it’s not really me, but I wondered if I could stick to just posting pictures – after all, one of my hobbies is taking photos of random strangers… (This is a follow up to […]
