No. There are already so many great writers and thinkers out there, and they write so well, far better than I could. I do read a woman's blog regularly and you would just love her, she's just as calm and peaceful as can be and she never talks about politics, ever. She doesn't even have internet at home, and she loves to read books and she loves her family and cooking healthy food and making a cozy home. She's not on WordPress unfortunately, but I can send you the link if you want. You won't find any tension there, though.

I could join Wordpress just so I could like your blog posts.

Good writers maybe but most don't have anything to say. You love research and writing. You just need to focus on a problem. You can't worry about anyone reading it. Just put it out there.

I do recognize jerks. Why would you assume I couldn't? In fact there's one here right now, unless he's already left on his grocery run.

We should hang around until he gets back. Are you drinking?

At least twice I got a like without a view or a visit. So many are looking without you even knowing it.

Many women can't.

I do love it, chrys. But so much of what I want to say seems too private to put out there.

Honestly I wouldn't care if no one read it, that was never a big thing for me but I know it's important to a lot of people, and understandably so.

I did start a blog here years ago but I deleted the posts. I still have them somewhere on my computer but the blog (should be) empty, unless the upgrade (downgrade) put them back in. It was called Lost in Contemplation. :chuckle: From another time.

They just love too much to give up, chrys. You'd understand that if you were a woman.

I'm not familiar with how how that would work, but If I joined WordPress (not necessarily to write, just to access the tools) I'd eventually figure it out.

Don't make it about yourself. You should be anonymous. I have to be.

:chuckle: This is what I love about you.

No, I'm not drinking, I rarely drink, although I will have a drink later tonight, maybe two - so I have to be careful because I'm a real lightweight.

I only have about a half hour or so and then I have to get myself ready and then I'll be gone. I'm glad I got this chance to talk to you.

What do you know about categories and tags? That seems to be the key.

 

[annabenedetti]

Don't make it about yourself. You should be anonymous. I have to be.

But that's what makes you vulnerable. Have you considered how it's all connected?

I don't mean make it about yourself in a self-centered way, but to give a part of yourself.

It was nice.

Not a thing, but I'd go through all the help and how-to's and if I couldn't find what I needed I'd start searching the internet. Believe me if there's a way to do anything, someone's already got the solution out there. It's incredible, really. Take the smallest how-to problem you have, and there's either a step-by-step or a video out there. It's super important to use the right search words though. Maybe I'm just fairly good at search words. :chuckle:

I don't mind taking risks but I can't subject my family to them.

 

[annabenedetti]

It really was. Thank you.

My wife is good at that and I often ask her to do the search for me.

Oh I agree absolutely. That's why I almost never say anything about my family, to protect them.

But you can give of yourself in many ways without using your name.

There you go. Good.

 

[ok doser]

You didn't answer the question. He is still on coffee.

perhaps she meant covfefe

We should work on being objective and not so much subjective.
