Only have to look at social feeds to see that most of us 30-40-year-olds don't have much interesting to say most of the time either, in fairness.

@mike Yeah, unfortunately you're right. Most humans aren't very interesting. But it's more forgivable if they are teenagers.

But that is a threat that I should use one day; "Do your homework or you'll become a 30-40 year old with nothing interesting to say but still insists on tweeting their vapid opinions."

100%. Speaking of homework, building a 90s-style website would probably make a great assignment.

The teenagers that I tried that assignment on couldn't stand text based websites. They were too used to the overstimulating video of tiktok.

Re: "Bad hindsight: - Comedy is just tragedy remembered. You will miss this period of your life, if only because you have now what you won't have in the future (time). Re: "Next generation" - the wisdom of knowing you have nothing to add is invaluable and one I learned many years ago (despite a superficial look at my webpage indicating otherwise).

@murid That bad huh? Still, as you say, all the more reason to celebrate those who do give it a go, even if they "fail" in they eyes of some.

you don't draw digitally at all, right?

murid 1 year ago

I color some stuff digitally, but I just like pen and paper more. The physicality of it makes it satisfying.

Love this way of looking at websites as craft. Definitely feels that way!

feel the same too re: websites as craft. is honestly part of the appeal as transitioned from keeping physical journals to a web page. the vigilance to stop romanticising the past is also important to maintain - always think its interesting how many children use neocities as an anemoia producer to escape the terror of the modern age.

Can definitely relate. XD There will, eventually, maybe, be mermaids! It's the spirit of it that counts.

Totally resonated with me too. Sometimes it feels like I’m going to be the last one wearing a mask, still trying to give a damn at the end of the world.

Congrats on two years. If you're not part of the audience you're writing for, you're doing something wrong. It's a good sign that you enjoy reading your own writing.
