I Am Journaling Now… Sometimes

I have always struggled with journaling, but now I have found a process that works for me… most of the time.

If you're reading this, thanks for considering my diatribe :)

Masks and Movement

Yes I was going to find a way to dress up even for a covid-era videocall Halloween "party" So the month’s IndieWeb Carnival theme is “Masks, Identities & Cosplay” so that’s an easy one. I already waffle about this more than a bit (cosplay | Leia Dot Cymru) and one of my previous Carnival posts was A love letter to cosplay But there’s always more to waffle about and I noticed at the most recent con quite how differently I move about a space in different costumes. Playing as Ahsoka […]

Content warning:Article: You don't have to blog like me

You don't have to have a blog like me. You just need to blog. Blog blog blog. Blog possibly should not be used as a verb, as I blog about here.

You don't have to blog like me.

You don't have to differentiate by post kind.
You don't have to put full contents in your feed.
You don't have to keep a library of "maybe-some-day"
drafts so long that you'll never reach the bottom.

You don't have to have a comments form.
Or reactions. Or webmentions.
Or a guestbook. Or drawings?
(But give me some way to say "hi, you're cool!")

You don't have to have a feature image.
You don't have to keep posts up forever.
You don't have to have tags.
You don't have to syndicate to the socials.

You don't have to stick to one topic.
Or three. Or seventeen.
Or be able to answer "what's your blog about?"
It's yours, and that's enough.

You don't have to post on a schedule.
You don't have to use your real name.
You don't have to have a podcast.
You don't have to tell everybody.

You don't have to use any particular tool.
Bloggers who spend their time arguing
About ClassicPress vs WriteFreely vs Bear vs Middleman
Could be reading and writing instead.

You don't have to have a plan to "monetize".
You don't have to write your own theme.
You don't have to be run your own server.
You don't have to make every post your best.

You just have to blog.

The Internet is ours.
It belongs to the humans.

Not to the companies and the robots.
To us.

And every human voice.
Every single human voice.
Makes the world a little richer.

You don't have to blog like me.
(You don't have to use "blog" as a verb.)

You just have to blog.
