The blog in review part 3: Part 5, Archives.
Next up, the biggie...
Archives
No way to cushion it, this is the shit I wasted my time on.
But it's only really a waste if you don't learn from it.
I got a lot of Jade-Shade ideas from this stuff.
And Jade-Shade got me to the next thing I'm doing.
So, there's that....
But even then, a lot of this was a sinkhole.
A fun sinkhole, but so are video games and porn.
I just couldn't see through the blizzard of my demons and insecurities.
Couldn't get bright enough headlights to cut through it.
At least, that's what I thought.
Turned out alleged friends were smearing peanut butter on my headlights, and telling me it was polish.
They're cut loose now.
My vision cleared right up thanks to that move.
Funny, that.
Y'know who knew all along, and kinda tried to warn me?
Sharon, who talked me into making the blog in the first place.
The time I could've saved if I'd just accepted she knew everything.
Ah, well, at least I finally clued in eventually.
Anyway, let's de-clutter the sinkhole...
Classic categories
This is all still good stuff.
I'll just swap the numbers for bullets, and we're good there.
Calendar
Yeah, I thought I needed these for a bunch of reasons.
Whenever I couldn't think of unique new content, I could always use a geek holiday, or a real holiday for a crutch, and if I could theoretically find a geek holiday for every day, I'd always have something meaningless to talk about.
But then I needed a calendar to keep track of all of it.
But then tending to these fucking calendars became a full time job, and I couldn't make my own stuff even when I wanted to, and it stopped being fun.
But I kept compulsively doing it long after it stopped being fun.
Dumbass.
Will anyone but me ever look at these stupid things?
Probably not.
It's a safe bet not.
But I'll keep them up as a reminder to myself.
En-Mike-lopedia
These were another thing that started out fun, and then got out of control.
Will anyone ever dig these up, and care about them?
Doubt it.
But like the calendars, I'll keep them up to remind me.
Other Crap
Okay, here's where the big trimming needs to take place....
...don't need to be there, IMHO.
Lot of redundant rants in "classic categories".
So, I'll put them in here, and replace them with this review.
And, that should do it.
Next up, Biography.
