I think it’s possible, but you’d need a different source of motivation

Only thing that's worked in my life. Maybe I haven't tried hard enough, though.

I've tried to suppress or chill out about the stuff I'm petty or resentful about and it's left me feeling empty and bored

IMO you need to go through many waves of resentment & comfort before attempting purposeful artistic resentment

I think this is basically wrong. If you know what motivates you, you will generally find other media to express yourself, not blogging. Like Twitter. Blogging tends to clarify very illegible motives into less illegible ones.

By "blogging" I mean specifically something like the meaningness project, your "gonzo density", manifesto-building etc.
