ADVENTURES INTO INSTAGRAM PART 1
FROT
It is a long time since I posted anything on Instagram… I previously had an account – sift666 – that I used to post photos on from 2013 to 2016, but after I stopped using it my login stopped working, and it’s been over seven years since I’ve posted on Instagram or even looked at […]
MY NEW MONTH’S RESOLUTIONS
FROT
Today is the first day of September. At the start of last month I had two new month resolutions. To stop using all social media, and to focus on the positive. How did that all go? Well the social media part went OK, I did totally stop all use of social media for a solid […]
FACEBOOK – MY OWN LITTLE FIVE EYES NETWORK
FROT
MY FIVE FACEBOOK ACCOUNTS Over the past 15 years I’ve had five Facebook accounts which is quite a lot for an introvert who doesn’t even like Facebook. My original one was called “Wheels Sift” and was set up in 2007 using a burner email. Even back then I knew it was best to be as […]
TWITTER HAVE COPIED MY ACCOUNT
FROT
I never use Twitter but I did set up an account years ago to suss it out. I called my account “X” and used a white X logo on a black background. Now they have rebranded Twitter as “X” and are using a white X on a black background. Yes, I was pretty astonished! https://twitter.com/X46003739 […]
ARE WE PUSHING SHIT UPHILL?
FROT
Over the past decade I have been suspended, blocked, banned, or shadow banned by many of the mainstream social media and blogging platforms including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Medium, and Mastodon. And I’ve been black listed on blockchain sites like Steemit & Hive. The few remaining ones I was allowed to post on uncensored have […]
DOES GOOGLE CONTROL THE INTERNET?
FROT
Back in 2006 when I first started blogging on a new self hosted website set up in April it was a real buzz to watch the traffic increasing almost exponentially each month for the first eight months. Later on I was a bit surprised to see it decline for the first time in 2008 (my […]
WHAT ARE SIFTINGS?
FROT
After experimenting with running a Blogger blog side by side with this WordPress blog for a while, it became clear to me that after eight years it was time to quit using WordPress and go back to Blogger. WordPress works best for longer posts where more advanced features on things like formatting and image galleries […]
TRANSVESTIGATIONS JULY 2023
FROT
Since this WordPress blog is heavily blacklisted and shadow banned, I decided to test out Google’s own blogging platform and set up three new blogs on Blogger. One of them was called “TRANSVESTIGATE” and was mostly fairly short posts featuring celebs of dubious gender. My plan was to throw those short posts together once a […]
NEW BLOGGER BLOGS
FROT
At the start of June 2023 I decided to revert back to posting on Blogger, and the SIFT blog worked well so I went on to add two more new Blogger blogs, WAPF WELLINGTON, and TRANSVESTIGATE, both starting July 2023. The irony of this is not lost on me – after a decade of avoiding […]
SIFTINGS #01 – ALL MY QUICKIE POSTS FROM JUNE 2023
FROT
THIS IS MY FIRST SIFTY COMPILATION POST WordPress only really works for full length posts, but I’d like to post more short posts like I’m now doing on my Blogger blog – www.sift.co.nz Blogger comes into it’s own for doing short posts, where the homepage displays each post in full, and you can scroll down […]
