I haven't blogged in years. Nor have I had my own website in just about as long.
I, like most people, have merely been involved in the cesspool of social media for the past decade (which is sad, when you really think about it).
I have always kept a paper journal, but never a public forum which was personal and not based on views or shares or likes (or memes).
Since the censorship and deletion of my primary community FB page recently, due to "community standard violations" which was nothing but utterly absurd bullshit meant to silence my viewpoints, I no longer have the potential reach of those 10,000 members, nor the upwards of 100,000+ weekly page reach that I routinely had through shares and reposts.
Which is fine, it's for the best. Social media, and FB in general is truly terrible and has become nothing but either divisive garbage, endless disinformation, or complete censorship and endless flagging of "unsafe" viewpoints. It won't be long before FB has become as defunct as Myspace, and the world will be better for that.
I'm actually thankful for the unpublishing of my page, because it was the motivation I needed to try blogging again, and start some new websites (which are still in the developmental "tweaking" stages).
CONSPIRAPORN! which will continue in the vein of the since deleted FB page:
www.conspiraporn.com
And GENETIC MEMORY, which is in the slow process of uploading 300+ pieces of my original art:
www.geneticmemory.online
And then THIS page, PRIMORDIAL PRODUCTIONS, which will serve as a blog of odds and ends that don't really fit at either of the other websites.... www.primordialproductions.info
Likewise, a new podcast connected to CONSPIRAPORN! will begin in the next few days, and a new zine connected to PRIMORDIAL PRODUCTIONS will be released in the next few weeks...
I am in a stage of reevaluation of my personal and creative identity, as we ALL should probably be.
FB is the retirement community of the internet and where social media goes to die...
