Today my timeline is very much filled with posts about "the experiment". Don't worry. I'm not going to go there. What I'm going to do myself is start posting more short posts - photos and art and stuff.
Lately I haven't been doing many posts on Steemit. That is not because I've stopped looking at Steemit or anything, its just because I've been fairly busy. I don't use any other social media - Steemit is it.
I'm a big fan of Steemit and want it to succeed. And I think that ultimately it needs to be enjoyable to visit and post on Steemit.
One of my hobbies is playing about with pictures and photos on my tablet and computer. Here is an edit of one of my paintings. The original painting is acrylic on canvas, and here is an edit of it that has had a few effects done in Photoshop.
I like to make them into 1x1 pictures because I think they look cool.
And here is the original painting:
SIFT666 STEEMIT SIGNATURE
Because I want to go on about myself and blow my own trumpet I have written a signature. Sometimes Cheetabot points out that I am copying content off myself. The bot is quite right, I am indeed plagiarising my own Steemit signature, but hopefully all the important stuff was at the top of the post.
@sift666 is my Steemit alias. As 666 is the number following 665 and preceding 667, and I’m using the number here on my Steemit account, it might mean I’m a worshiper of Satan. Or it could indicate that I have troll tendencies I need to work out with myself.
My real name is Ian Gregson, aka wheels007. I’m a professional sifter from Wellington New Zealand. My interests include photography, conspiracies , web design, writing, nutrition, art, design, philosophy, technology, anarchy, health, computers, humour (humor), gratuitous arse shots, and anything that makes my eyes bulge while I make squeaking sounds (except torture).
Back in the glory days of Steemit (August 2016), I once made $404 for a post and went on a three month bender. It took months to work off the after effects of the hangover and I’m still attempting to understand how that ever happened.
I’m currently developing a new website portal to rival Steemit called www.frot.co.nz where I’m testing out a new feature called “frottage” that may revolutionise blogging and create a global paradigm shift.
Photos and pictures labeled @sift666, www.sift.co.nz or www.frot.co.nz are my own creations, while pictures with no credits are usually ones I found in my image collection and have no idea where they originally came from. Otherwise, due to pressure to conform, I’m having a crack at including an image credit beneath each picture I copy off the internet. I do have opinions on this subject, but am practicing putting a sock in it.
To tell the truth I often have no idea what I’m going to post next, but I will be sure to include pictures. If you are a person who prefers mainstream opinion, my posts may not be entirely your cup of tea. But if you like to dwell on the wild fringes of conspiracy theory, or you are a whale with a massive blowhole, you might like to follow me on Steemit. It would be great to have you on board.
