Marshall Kändiß The Pyrate: Missives of Cosplay character by Artist Black UniGryphon 烏獨角獸 任思麒

Pirate, Karaoke, Raver, Tribal Fusion Bellydance, etc.
When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
I all alone beweep my outcast state,
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries,
And look upon myself, and curse my fate,
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featur'd like him, like him with friends possess'd,
Desiring this man's art and that man's scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate;
For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.

Perhaps, if things go well, I might be able to do something nice, for Chinese New Year, coming up next month. So, do return for to see if that works out.
In the meantime, I do have a poll which you can vote on in the side bar.
And, have yerself a nice stay at me blog. Har-har!
So, I've been re-tweeking the blog design. I think it's going rather well.
The new background image is done. And, the e-reader/mobile version loads in nanoseconds!
I hope you like it!
I believe Pirate Pebbs has updated some of her cross dresser blog stuff as well, and she had an insane year also... we're both Virgo solar signs in the Zodiac.
I do also like (Crowned Queen of Pirates) Scarlett Harlott however, to my knowledge, she doesn't blog.

Well..... so long as all Hell doesn't break loose, I've been doing #ThrowBackThursday on Instagram last week, and am looking forward to doing that again this week.
And, so long as nobody dies, or hell still hasn't broken loose, I might be able to do something for Chinese New Year.
In the meantime, enjoy my Photography, arts, and Boho Chic/Hippie stuff I keep sharing on Instagram. It's so popular, it's blowing up. I hope *crosses fingers* to move onto monetizing my new Boho/Gypset Blog by summer. I do have some my Bohemian Prom photos scheduled to pot in April/May... so look out for that.
If you don't yet use blog feed readers, I suggest using Feedly. It's free if you log on via Google. And, they have free apps also.
Pinterest is actually about as old as Tumblr, and I've been on Pinterest for several years not, not quite as long as Tumblr, or even Twitter, but NOW, you can pin my blog stuff to Pinterest!
My previous blog format wouldn't allow it. But, I reprogrammed the whole thing. So, enjoy!
What an INSANE YEAR! And, by insane, I mean medically insane people EVERYWHERE! 2014 was TERRIBLE!!!!!
Junkies (plural), druggies, corruption, thieves, hackers, back stabbers, psychotic folks, nosy people, fights, flame wars, car accidents, suicidal people, vandalism, racism, and all kinds of bullshit & frauds, shady business practices, ants, hornets, spiders, etc! Oh, and I'm NOT referring to the news, I MEAN IN MY PERSONAL LIFE! WTF!!!!!! 1 thing after another, often multiples of the same fucked-up things, like a never ending barrage of hate, violence, attack, spies, etc.
Am and SO glad that shit is over! -I hope! *knocks wood*
I could not get a damned thing done! EVER! My nerves were shot, and often times the LAST place I wanted to be was online, or to express anything about it publicly... I was just trying to keep my own scruples! Yuck!
Not only that, but I was constantly sick, stressed out, and either I had insomnia so bad, or I couldn't get out of bed.
Lets never do that again, OK?
I am not making any plans, yet... I've been nursing my health... Finally got to go to see a chiropractor. It helps me SO MUCH! My lungs just WERE NOT HEALING since late September, and my asthma was terrible... but, the moment I got my first spinal adjustment last month, I could fill my whole lungs with breath, and could sleep.
I'm only finally at a point where I can get back to doing some yoga... but, I still need to be careful, and also stay out of the cold air...
Anyways.... HOW DO YOU LIKE MY BLOG REDESIGN?
So, why the new design?
Well, in 2013, when I first started this blog, they had the new "Dynamic View" template which was a design for pads or e-readers, like iPad, and Galaxy... but it was VERY limited in what content you could apply to it... Google made it seem as tho' they would be updating it, but, they never did...
Truthfully, this IS MY MOST POPULAR BLOG I have EVER CREATED in my whole entire history of blogging, or online journaling... Even with barely any posts for whole long periods during 2014, I still consistently got views, hits, readers, etc.
But, since the "dynamic view" format capped the amount of ads I could utilize, I lost out on so much revenue. That left me with one option, switch the format to an older scripting format. So, that's what happened.
I'm sorry it won't load as quickly in the e-readers, but even mega successful armchair bloggers don't use e-reader formatting, just the old stuff.
So, I've been reprogramming this whole blog... and programming is just NOT my strong point, so there's limits to what I can do...
I will ALSO be expanding my monetization horizons. Look,that's just the way it is... I put SO MUCH WORK into this blog, so there's no reason why I shouldn't expand my options, ya know?
Luckily, the traffic to this blog is decent.
And, I can also program my other internet content strait into this blog format, where as the other format would block much of the external content/widgets. It was VERY frustrating as a blogger.
Anyways, I'm very grateful to Google, as a contractor, but, I still want more options... ya know?
Now, I can get my Flattr widgets to work. No more glitching. I can share more content, easily, and even work around the limits with Google/Google+ connections.
So... MUCH, MUCH, MUCH BETTER!
I've also started a Bohemian/Boho Chic Hippie-ish themed blog... but, since Google won't let me monetize it until 6 months form now, I scheduled the posts to post much later.. Right now, the posts showing on it are pretty much nothing...
Oh, and my Music Blog finally got the green light for monetization! W00t!
However, at this moment, as I'm typing this,both of those blogs are quite terrible, and need some tweeking.... I know, they stink.
But, based on what I got done with this blog today, I think both will turn out really well once I get around to them.
