Something About Tumblr

​A friend of mine deleted her Tumblr blog after being harassed by some who had issues with the fandom they feel passionate about. I thought Tumblr was a cool and safe place for everyone. It seems it isn’t. I’m sorry she did that but it seems Tumblr has a way to go to become that place of open mindedness and true freedom of expression. Fandoms are highly personal things so when one is attacked because of uninformed people saying ignorant things then perhaps it’s time to run along. I’m glad to be on WordPress.

Bread & Butter, A New Bakery Open In The #Chattanooga Area

After church this afternoon we swung by a new bakery in the Chattanooga suburb of Red Bank. This bakery has been in the works for a few months and this is their opening weekend. Bread and Butter Bakery decided to do a “soft opening” so they didn’t have the widest range of offerings but what they had today looked pretty tasty. Featured items today were scones, brownies, baguette, cookies, seasoned loaves along with some locally sourced cheeses and butter. I am excited to see what they will do in the future.

This building once was home to a Baskin Robbins 31 Ice Cream shop that some friends of mine operated for years. It’s nice to see something good going into it.

Two Kingdoms Of Blogging

Blogging Still RulesThe world of blogging has two unique kingdoms (probably more) where you have recreational bloggers and then professional bloggers. Sometimes your recreational blog turns into your professional blog but most times your recreational blog is a personal one you do for fun and. Both types are about making connections and sharing your ideas and thoughts.

A professional blog is about your livelihood and you have to address it and treat it differently. You are always finding ways to increase your viewership and there is the whole analytics thing. Also there is that building a brand thing where people will think of your site as a destination.

Blogging for fun means just that. Posting whatever you want so that you can express who you are and to connect with a diverse audience of people from around the world. It’s more of a hobby than you are trying to build a brand.

No matter how you blog the hope is that there is some passion and enjoyment behind it. Anyway you do it, I hope everyone keeps on blogging.

Bloggers Coming Home, Welcome Back!

It’s good to see bloggers who haven’t posted in awhile showing up with some new stuff. Their presence is always missed. So to all you prodigal bloggers out there, welcome back. Keep on blogging.
