April Retrospective and May Plans

in #blog7 months ago

I'm back! Happy HIVE Power Up Day, everyone. I've staked my celebratory 100 tokens. Have you powered up anything? Now it's time for my monthly archive and mentioning some plans for content in the near future.

Looking back at April, I wrote very little. I was overdue for a sabbatical on all fronts, digital and real-world. Four posts is way below my usual output.

March Retrospective and April Plans: Last month's #HPUD entry
Spring Haiku and Travel: a haiku idea from my vacation and some updates.
Eclipse: more haiku about viewing the eclipse in totality.
Responding to Who What Why: challenging a hoplophobic screed masquerading as journalism.

After spending most of April largely away from content creation, I'm ready to start being my usual eclectic self writing a strange potpourri of opinion, reviews, and whatever else pops into my head. Coning up, hopefully soon: tent reviews, an in-depth critique of MAGA/conservatarian border enforcement ideas, and hot takes on current events. What do you want to read, though? Are there new communities you might recommend, or challenges I should join?

Staking 100HP is amazing! I wish I could afford to do the same, but it looks like I will have to blog my way up the chain instead!

All you need is 10 HP staked for the basic badge from @hivebuzz, so you may still be able to participate!

I think I shall keep some HBD liquid so I can do that at the end of next month. I have nothing to do that with this month. It's alright.

I did a big drain a bit more than a month ago. 1x Power Down and took out all my HBD Savings.

The HP is back and I am better than ever but my HBD savings is still regenerating... through blogging it out!
