RANDOMS 2026 #3

Throughout 2024 and 2025 I knocked out a blog post every day and to my surprise this blog was apparently getting over 2000 hits a day. They were probably mostly a load of AI bollocks but it seemed sort of like a mark of success.

In 2026 I stopped being so anal about posting daily and dropped back to just doing posts when I felt like it, which for a few weeks was only about once every three days.

And holy crap did my hits crash or what? I'm not convinced that any hit counts by Google are legitimate, but I must admit I was curious to see what happened if I went back to doing a post every day again. Will the hits go back up again after about three weeks?

The only "social media" platform I still post on is Facebook, who seem to let me post just about anything I want, with almost no censorship any more. So I do.

My "RANDOMS 2026" gallery is mostly images I've shared on Facebook this year.

ALCOHOLIC YOGA

 It's probably easier to get into loose stretchy yoga positions if you are completely tanked!

GONG FARMERS

In the the 15th and 17th Centuries, gong farmers dug out human wastes from privies and cesspits. This job no longer exists, but the term GONG FARMER could be useful online!

 “Gong was Old English for both the fecal matter and medieval toilet repository, itself. Gong farmers were to work only at night. They emptied a castle’s collective cesspit every two years, but also accepted payment for individual privies, as well. They toiled for two shillings per ton — centuries before indoor plumbing arrived"
