Most of the things I'm interested in I've already posted (sometimes more then once). Until something really fuels my attention I'm going to hold off posting for a while.
In the meantime I encourage visitors to do a search or go through the archives to see if there's something I've already posted which might be of interest.
If anyone has a interest they'd like to talk about on something posted prior, now would be a perfect time to comment.
How about linking to the most relevant blog in the Lehigh Valley, Lehigh Valley Ramblings? Your blog would benefit in traffic from such a move, until that happens you have ZERO credibility. Stay anon that's cool but give credit to the "pope"of blogging and supplicate like a baboon on the savannah.
ReplyDeleteYou again. How many times must I explain!
DeleteThis blog exists for only a few reasons.. To share things I come across, found interesting and my opinions of them hoping these will either inform or engage others enough they might want to have further discussion of them.
It's not about me nor this blog. Time after time I've repeated this ad nauseum. I don't give a shit what anyone thinks of me, the format or popularity of this blog.
I only care about that which I've written and what others' thoughts may be on any particular subject. When I post something about rail service, entertainment, science, alternate energy or anything else in one of my 1,400+ articles I don't want to talk about this blog's impact nor a critique of myself or my style. I only want to talk about that subject.
It draining having to explain myself repeatedly year after year after being drawn into a defensive posture that has nothing whatsoever to do with the subject of what I was writing about. WHY IS THIS SO DAMNED HARD TO UNDERSTAND!
Don't like the way I blog, then don't read it. If you don't like the things I write about and don't want to engage in a respectful manner then don't. Go write your own blog instead of trolling mine and other peoples' with all your unnecessary and unwanted critiquing. Come up with your own ideas which you think are so great and see how it goes for you when other people starting pissing on your fire.
Year after year I tried to explain this time and again. Nearly each time I do I'm called all kinds of insulting names both here on this blog and elsewhere. I'm accused by being an anonymous coward, a whiner and all kinds of crap when I speak out defensively. Frankly I don't give a shit. People still don't get it. This isn't what bothers me.
It's the fact these critics are ignoring the material I'm posting choosing to redirect the focus on me instead. Instead of focusing attention on me and this blog FOCUS ON THE ACTUAL STUFF I'VE WRITTEN ABOUT. That's all I care about.
Hence unless there's greater interest in engaging with me on subjects of my interests already posted I find less need to devote myself to the intensity and frequency which I have in the past.
I'm in agreement with this person's article I came across today...
LINK TO: Haters Gonna Hate-- "It doesn’t seem fair to ask that we be better, more noble, more understanding, than those who seek to make our lives miserable. It doesn’t seem reasonable to ask us to be the model token minorities of the Internet." AMEN!
You totally care what others think about you, that's why you cry like a baby every time you remember nobody likes you! Lol!
