@davew@mastodon.social: [Blogs are little things](http://scripting.com/2019/10/11/130545.html) Blogs can be ephemeral. Lots of people made arbitrary rules about blogging. You need to update your blog daily. Blog posts should be structured essays. None of these rules are real. Many of these rules were made up by marketers and professional content creators and may be true in those fields, but if you are not a marketer, or looking to generate direct income from your blog, those rules do not apply to you.

@davew “leave it there and forget it” is a good strategy. I’m currently in the process of going through an old blog and removing memes, vintage ads, and retro found photos, which fascinate me and which I now mainly post to tumblr. And now I’m thinking, why bother? Just leave it be.
