I remember when you could just throw just anything you'd like up on a site and call it good. Curating was (or could be) part of it, but if you wanted to say, "fuck curation" you could. It was YOUR website; it's not a curated exhibit in a museum. Just be an amateur at something. Make a lot of noise!

Most bloggers write more posts than they actually publish. The published ones are the ones that pass muster. We don't see the stuff in their drafts folder.
