I've been journaling for 11 years and I'm not going to stop any time soon despite the lack of a "like button" or analytics.

I consider journaling and blogging two distinct and separate mediums.

In case you use them interchangeably, what do you write about?

As I recall when blogs first came about, "blog" is shorthand for "web log".

A log is a journal.

Ergo, to write a blog is to journal something.

I like the definitions referenced in this[1] article when it comes to log, diary, and journaling. In that way, I wouldn't publish my journals to my blog.

Heh. After a couple years of normal conservatives being told their only place to go to voice complaints is 4chan you shouldn't be surprised that some of us took your advice and learned from the people there.
