Kind of interested that so many web revival folks will use a pseudonym but then put their whole entire birth date out there for the world to see.

You make a good point. Using an pseudonym ensures a lot of safety. One thing people DO need to realize, though?

If someone knows where you live, your first name (and only your first name) and your birthday, they can usually sort out your identity, at least in America. For example, Andy from Oregon born on such and such date is probably the ONLY Andy born that day... :-/

Obviously more true than usual if you have a very unique name, but still possible in many cases if someone is being tenacious and seeking personal information. Be careful, folks. The internet is a perilous place at times.

the anonymity plays a large part in providing a false sense of security, and the supposed obsecurity of the indie web. still the internet though. remember those internet/general safety slogans drilled into your head as a child!

I overhauled my links page, as I follow too many sites on Neocities at this point to keep up with linking each one. I chose a smaller number of links to feature, as well as links from elsewhere on the web. I may swap these out or add to them as time goes on. There are so many websites on here that I like!

i've read and re-read your field notes page a number of times and it always inspires me to carry a pocket notebook again. my reality never seems to live up to yours, though

Your essays are so well-written and thought-provoking! As an "artist" myself (or hobbyist? It doesn't make a lot of difference to me), I really resonated with the one about writing and self-publishing; it made me think of how often I am told to sell and market my creations, when in reality I just want to create for the sake of it, because it makes me feel. Thank you for making me think!

LOVE your rededication to writing for your own sake, to exercise your identity and freedom! thank you so much for sharing. thoughtful + personal essays are my favourite to read. i 100% agree with everything, of course -- i love the democratisation of "publication" (online) + platforms, so happy to see you using it to share your writing.

"a part of life not being created within me" really nails it, thank you. you touch on a lot of stuff I kinda know but haven't seen spelled out as lucidly re un/self/publishing and I think that's so valuable

I realized that I had been maintaining a separate changelog for my Steven Universe Future site...and never actually linked to it anywhere on the site! XD You can now find it on the About page.

Two more Steven Universe Future episodes. I'm 35% of the way through with them now. I was hoping that number would make me feel better.

Hi mutual! Do you have a button? I'm aiming to create a little space for everyone who's interacted with my site hehe. Let me know when you've made one, if not! Besides that I'll be revisiting your poetry because OUGH, it goes hard

Thanks so much! I really appreciate the compliment. Unfortunately, I don't have a button. I don't even know how to make one?? I was a denizen of the old web, but never made it that far. I may make one if I figure it out, though.
