I have found that Google refuses to index this blog anymore, even though Google actually owns blogger.com or blogspot or whatever it's called now. The only way I can get here now from Google is through a link on the main menu of my website (www.forkword.com) or linktree. Anyway i guess this is just how the fashions of the internet go - everyone is over on substack now, reddit, places like that.
I guess the real human content of the old web is just lost now in the torrent of AI produced flotsam. And what is the value of real human content now anyway, when it's just words. People want sounds, images, video, the touch of flesh, the exchange of fluids. And even then, they only want those things from certain specific vendors. The rest of us go on the compost heap, the pyre, the verbiage pile, ashes to rot down and become a nice damp moss for the next generation, a dank dark reminder of a past ecocyde.
I am happy, it is good to be part of the dark earth, funelled through by worms, dug in by badgers. Supporting trees and ferns and vines. This is the Way.
