From a practical prospective, there are so many things wrong with this AI image.
But who cares!

I have questions: Yesterday (Monday) my non-robot views were near zero. OK not zero but only about 10% of my typical loyal reader views; you, the readers I value. I have few "Followers" compared to other blogs. Have I run my course? Do my views only come from secondary clicks on Femulate and t-Central? Maybe my content is no longer relevant, although I try and keep it varied.
Doing a everyday post is a lot of work. I am a big girl, so please be honest on continuing? Maybe all blogs have run their course? I knew this, "To be or not be?" moment would come. So I ask, should I continue?

yes please do
ReplyDeleteYes, please continue. I have no idea why views or visits rise and fall, but I do know your page has been my first stop each morning for more than a decade. I’m primarily interested in your activities and commentary and current events. I also enjoy the fashion tips and enduring theme of self acceptance.
ReplyDeleteIf access through secondary clicks do not count, then I am rarely here. That is my usual path to get here. Those sites index their recommended paths with a title and first line. That gives me more understanding of the subject for the day.
ReplyDeleteI like the clothes. You often describe practical, beautiful clothes and accessories in a “what I wore” format. From time to time, I have been inspired to buy and wear clothes that you feature. After all, the clothes is an obvious reason for viewing a website with a Crossdresser theme. I enjoy the motorcycles, though riding them is too dangerous for my taste. I have also grown to enjoy the Saturday posts showing a woman dressed as I dream of dressing and featuring a positive motivational message. Those are the posts that I review again and again.
As you already know, I avoid websites advocating the politics of those who would impoverish many like me, politics often Marxist in nature or called “leftist” by their adversaries. Such posts are easier to identify from the brief descriptions of secondary paths rather than by title alone. A free country is wonderful: you can post what you want to post and I can read or avoid reading as I choose.
I would be disappointed to see what you post no longer. It is much work indeed to publish daily. Winston Churchill called writing regularly and often a tyrant. He wrote anyway. At our age, it can become a burden, one that your readers enjoy but you do not. Even my fave fashion websites that feature a single personality have reduced their output recently. They admit persevering because they have a support network. At our age, people retire. Be careful to retire TO something and not FROM something. Your blog itself is already abundant evidence of that wisdom. At our age, people who persevere often follow the wisdom that you can get a lot done if you get someone else to do it for you.
You are appreciated.

Yes! I know I read your stories in an RSS reader, which is a little "old school" for the internet, but I also wonder if that's where some of those bots are coming from too. I don't have the patience to blog regularly myself or I would... the world needs our voices!
ReplyDeleteHi Rhonda,
ReplyDeleteYes, please keep this up. I love both your commentary and your inspirational pictures. On top of that, I always look forward to your collection of political cartoons.
Your beauty is also inspirational. I know that I am not the only one who is envious of your ability to live as you do being out and about whenever you want as well as having a spouse that is apparently OK with you (a fact? that I just caught in one of your recent posts.)
I missed being count yesterday since I was traveling. I trust this only skewed your count slightly :) !

I'd be sad to lose your blog. But I also know the level of effort required.
ReplyDeleteHope you continue! -Juliet
Your website didn't update on T-Central yesterday or this morning. I don't know how many others are routed to you through there, but that's where I look for you every morning. That could account for your readership being down the last two days. I for one would totally miss you. Femulate and Rhondasescape are daily must reads for me. Randi
ReplyDeleteI like really your blog but I avoid visiting when it’s political, there is too much division every else and blogs like yours and femulate are my happy escape.
ReplyDeleteall the effort it must,take to come up with your stuff is appreciated. I'm sure it is also a joy to develop this material. however more and more we are buried in politics
ReplyDeleteto the degree that it has be come hard to take. so I only check out your great stuff Mon to Sat. Don't you think politics is out of your wheelhouse and distracts from the rest of your material?
I don't go on line that much. When I do go I usually come to you blog first. You always have something to say and it's usually interesting or something that I have thought about as well. It gives me a nice feeling that someone else thinks the same way. Abby made many good points, one in particular that to me hits home. It's so nice to see someone my age that lives the life that you do. I wish I lived closer to your area. I'd love to meet you. Please keep up you blog. I'd truly miss not being able to read about what you are up to. As a fellow rider. Rhonda
ReplyDeleteDon’t ever leave me!!
ReplyDeleteYours is among the first sites I view in the morning. I like the fashion advice, hearing about your experiences, and the political coverage. I hope you keep all three, including the politics. When our community is so under attack it is important to stand up to those who hate us and not hide in the closet (literally and figuratively). I especially like that your site uses minimal AI (sorry Stana) and your present real life rather than some set of fantasies. Please keep writing!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Anonymous. But if "politics" keeps you in the game, then so be it.

femme info great, experience great, lady lifestyle yes yes please
ReplyDeleteRhonda, don't go! I frequent three trans sites regularly, and yours is one of those. I can only imagine how hard it is to come up with content every day, so I really appreciate your effort. There aren't any blog rules I know of that require a blogger to publish content every day, so give yourself a little break and publish every other day, or three days a week. I'll still be here championing your content and your unique insights no matter how often you post.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Sally
Sometimes life seems pointless and sometimes unappreciated. Being the strong person you are. I’m sure you’ll know we love you 😍.
ReplyDeleteI visit your site every day, but usually through clicking through Femulate. I didn't know that would be a problem for your site. Please don't leave. I would miss you.
ReplyDeletenot so much for your site but I never see any info anywhere re: gatherings of people like us who would meet up now and then.I'm not referring to the annual event in one state but rather every state must have a city or 2 within driving range where folks could meet now and then
ReplyDeleteI've been remiss in reading your blog as often as I once did. Now that you have brought up the thought of shutting your blog down, I will make a more concerted effort to look in on you more often.
ReplyDeleteI also read every day. Personally I like the cartoons but understand why some might want your blog to be an "escape" from politics. Unfortunately people have chosen to scapegoat people like us, so I fear politics is inescapable.
ReplyDeletePlease keep up the good work Rhonda.
