Viral On Threads, Boring On WordPress?

A post from my Threads feed https://www.threads.net/@tonyburgess1969

I think I have been blogging consistently for 15 years or so. In that time I have never had any post get more than the number of likes I got on this post on the Threads platform which is run by the folks of Instagram/Meta. This post about celebrating Hanukkah has gotten 928 plus likes and 44 replies That is what I call a viral response.

No blog post on any of the blogging platforms I have used has even come close to that number. I even use tags on my blog posts to reach a wider audience. I am just wondering if I have become stale to my blogging audience? This is just something I am wondering about.

Mindfulness Monday

Do something to help others during the Holidays. Be the good you want to see in the world. Your neighbors will appreciate you for it.

Doctor Who 60th Anniversary Special – The Giggle

My goodness, what a ride we have been on the last three weeks celebrating sixty years of Doctor Who. The show has been well served by the three-episode arc with The Doctor and Donna Noble. “The Giggle” is a wild ride Russell T. Davies is known for. This episode makes you think back to “The Sound of Drums” episode where chaos ensues. Neil Patrick Harris as the Celestial Toymaker is a badass villain in this episode. He is just as manic as anyone I have seen on screen. Overall it was a great episode in my humble opinion. It’s been a fun ride with David Tennant and Catherine Tate. This Christmas, Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson become our new Team TARDIS and I believe we are in good hands. Well done Doctor Who. Long live Doctor Who.
