  • What happens when I quit WordPress again?

    I can’t help but wonder what will happen to all the words and pictures I put here in WordPress once I remember that I hate using WordPress and decide to shitcan the whole thing. Will I bother moving it all over somewhere else? Probably.

    I also can’t help wondering, what if I don’t quit using WordPress. What if I use it as my primary blog platform for the rest of my natural life? Type->Publish->Update Plugins->Repeat. Pay like $5.00/month for hosting and never think about platforms again. Wouldn’t that be neat?

  • WordPress? WTF!?

    I often imagine a world in which my temperament, tastes, and WordPress align in a way that allows me to blog using WordPress again and be done with it. This world may not exist, but that doesn’t prevent me from trying to force an alignment once or twice a year.

    I don’t want blocks. I don’t want every plugin to upsell me every time I log in. I don’t want 99% of the themes. I definitely don’t want to ever touch the Site Editor. I do want stats and comments and a media library and a billion resources available whenever I get confused.

    This, then, is me testing things yet again to see if they feel right this time. I’ve highjacked the Baty.blog domain for this, just in case it sticks.
