So today, I got an email from Google saying they are unable to index my pages because of 5XX errors. When I visit my blog, it looks bad. My initial guess is that maybe my server is down, so I check out cpanel to see resources and server logs. Both are really low or empty.…

I switched my CDN provider from QUIC.cloud to Cloudflare. Why? Because quic.cloud kept erroring out on me. Very suddenly around May 14 2024, I started receiving HTTP 403 Forbidden when visiting my blog. After lots of trial and error, I found that it really only stopped when I “Bypassed CDN” entirely.

Purely Elizabeth’s Blueberry Hemp Granola Review – Not Recommended
Published on
–
Updated on
I don’t like this granola because it’s too salty and the blueberries are too hard. We eat this granola with yogurt or in smoothies and it’s shocking how we can still cover it and still find it too salty. The dried blueberries taste so stale that it hurts our teeth chewing.
