Maybe it was, or is, because I didn't update for five months and closed blog to "Custom Readers Only." There weren't any Custom Readers. It was an option I used when offline.
I don't know why the BlogRoll Links either do or don't reflect "most recently updated".
Nor do I know why some people have told me they no longer have to log in and agree to the "Sensitive Content" landing page. (I land on it). The "Sensitive Content" icon (button) IS ENABLED/TURNED ON. If you're reaching this blog without having to log in and agreeing to the advisory of the "Sensitive Warning" page, I don't know how or why its habbening. This is why, long ago, I added advisories at the masthead.
I don't know why the time line of a couple of posts went awry. Things appear "okay" now.
That's all I know. 😎 ¯\(ツ)/¯

A Nice, Clean, Blog Colonoscopy!
That's what I like to see. Found: 0 Results. 😎
A couple times a year I check muh blog out at Lumen.
Lumen checks (and also logs) your URL for free but part of that depends if the host reports to Lumen. According to Lumen, it collects reports of complaints, Copyright violation, etc.
Google/Blogger states on their Terms of Service (TOS) they report all complaints to Lumen. I don't know what other platforms report to Lumen (WP, IG, X, etc) because I've no presence online other than here at the Good folks at Blogger. And I mean that.
Short course on Lumen if your host is Blogger (or maybe other Google owned service, like You Tube, again I don't know, never used Lumen for YT).
First, go to Lumen at the link in the first second sentence. Enter full URL. Click Go. You'll get to prove you're NOT a Robot by clicking crosswalks, motorcycles, cars or something. You get the, "Hoo-Ray you're not a Robot, hold on" message.
You'll see your URL and under "the box" a bunch of entries. Ignore them. Unlikely they have anything to do with your site, it's all populated with partial, slight matches that have nothing to do with your results.
What you want to do is click on ADD MORE and narrow your parameters. A sub-menu to pick from for Title, Topic, Tags, Recipient, etc. Then in the ADD MORE box you type in what you want added to the search. You need to click on the ADD MORE button each time to add another specific "drill down" item.
When you've used some or all of ADDS, click GO or Continue, I forget which. Then, "Taa-Daa", the Results. If you're using Blogger, getting "FOUND: 0 RESULTS" is just what you want to see.
I maintain Google/Blogger TOS. Far too many I see whining, "muh soooooooooshuuullllllll meeeeeeediiiaaaaaa account was suspended or 'I'm ba-ba-banned. Waaaah'!" Well, did you break TOS? "Uhhhh...I really don't know." WTF are they talking about. They know they broke TOS.
My previous Blog Colonoscopy (6 or more months ago) also "FOUND: 0 RESULTS". Who doesn't want to share good colonoscopy news? 🤣
EDIT/ADDED: I am not, in any way, affiliated with Lumen.

It's been fun...
...But I'm done.
The blog will remain up, behind the "Sensitive Content" advisory entry page.
Thank you to all who visited, commented and linked over the years.

Any other Blogger users notice a change in the appearance of the pop-up mode comments window?
Anyone? Is it just me? I just noticed the pop up comment box looks different. Why does Blogger keep diddling with this sh*t?
I looked at other pop up comment windows on other Blogspot sites. Most appear as the one at the top of the above image. A few look like the example on the bottom.
Do I need to change a setting? I haven't changed any comment options at all.

Internet in Real Time.
How many posts, searches and uploads occur every second to FB, X, IG, You Tube, Pinterest, Google, Yandex and other social media sites or online Big Media? How many people are calling an Uber or using Skype every second?
This site Tracks that data it in real time: The Internet in Real Time. Check it out. It doesn't include Blooger or WP. Awwwwww...😭 It should, I'd like to see real-time data tracking for posting on both Bloog and WP.

Sensitive Warning Loop.
I am just now experiencing this Loop at other blogs with the content disclaimer. It seems to show up from time to time. Then it leaves.

A Spectacular Technical Achievement is Upon Us!
Oh Boy! A more modern look and feel! Don't worry, Beta-Testing a resounding success. Passed with flying colors. No glitches. No redesigns that impact the current simplicity of it.
If you dislike the changes, will they allow you to revert to the legacy mode?
"Vat do you mean you don't like ze chang-zes? You vill like ze chang-zes und you vill use them!"
