Single worst piece of web dev jargon has to be adding "-ful" to the ends of random words. Contentful this, featureful that, i just want a grill-ful a sausages

"-fy" is also a solid contender

i used to have -ery but i don't really use it anymore, i dropped it for even worse lexemes like general an ('an thing') and /*ks/→⟨x⟩ ('graphx' 'effex'). i could write a page about my silly way of speaking and i should.

Hubbard was totally telling porkies. Last I heard of him was of him mingling with One Taste people, and they're definitely (criminally) nuts.

Wasn't OneTaste after Hubbard's time? Or am I thinking of a different group?

Fair point! It was a BBC documentary on OneTaste, I thought they said that some OneTasters came from the same social circle as Hubbard but maybe I misremember or they meant it in a general way. Anyway, if I've just spread untruths about Hubbard, I REGRET NOTHING

A few links added, a few links trimmed. Two new tags: “Americana”, to complement the other two geographic tags, and “Fledglings”, for the opposite of a classic website. It’ll forever irk me that the most popular page on my site is the one that directs people elsewhere, but hey, that’s what i get for putting effort into it!

I get that tagging languages is important for accessibility and such, but whenever I set lang="grc" for something, I do always wonder who on *earth* is equipped with a screen reader that supports Ancient Greek

Added a terribly silly little detail — the subtitles on the English version of the page now look like BBC subtitles, and the subtitles on the Dutch version now look like NPO subtitles :-)

“A Christmas Carol” has been added to the Codex — in part to test how the format might look for an entire book, but mostly just because it’s a lovely little read at any time of year. :-)

Thanks for the follow and hello! Funnily, I also live in the north of England and just last night had a conversation along the lines of "should we move somewhere else like the Netherlands" : )

HAPPY [Gregorian] NEW YEAR!!! 2021 was better than 2020, so let’s all hope 2022 doesn’t totally fuck up that positive trend, eh?

The magic of *video*! The audio seems to be borked on browsers other than Firefox for.. some reason, but hey, that’s why subtitles were invented.

i love the inclusion of the little transcript dropdown tab! out of curiosity, did you host the vid thru neocities or elsewhere?

My site isn’t hosted on Neocities anymore — it’s actually with the UK-based hosting provider Krystal, but a quirk of Neocities’ slightly broken unsubscribe function lets me keep updating here and having it automatically redirect to marijn.uk :-)

Funnily enough, though I've tried every text editor or "distraction-free" writing app in town, I’ve found that the best way to get a blog post or wall of text down is to just crack open a notebook, get out the black pen, and start writing, copying it down onto The Computer Box later.

I suspect it's because there's no backspace button; every time i write on a computer i just revise and revise over and over again until the paragraph is completely devoid of personality

It’s amazing how people's about pages can list their every single minute demographic detail and yet still tell me absolutely nothing about the person who wrote it

When i made this website i swore to myself that i would never use the stereotypical starry Geocities background. I would like to apologise to my past self, and hope that she might find this somewhat tasteful
