People who type in all lowercase but still use fastidiously proper punctuation come across as serial killers and i’ve never been *quite* sure whether it’s intentional.

This also goes for people who type in 100% correct capitalisation, punctuation, and grammar on Discord; a similar thing applies for all lowercase no punctuation people on anything more formal than a chat app but instead of serial killers they sound like nine year olds

If anyone somehow guesses one of the new sites based just on this they win a cookie

It’s time again for Lords of Misrule! Email me anything you want* before the 16th of December, and i’ll put it on the site with its own fancy formatting. You can even vandalise my other pages if you ask nicely. (*No politics and nothing that would get me in legal trouble, please)

I'm on something of a poasting blitz but I'll say one last thing — one important thing i've learnt is that Neocities is much more tolerable if you just never look at the global activity page. No weirdos, no depressing blogs, no fansites for animes you've never heard of, no (rare, but there) actual literal neonazis — it’s generally just a much nicer experience when you stay in your own little circle.

I like Obsidian, you're meant to have all these weird complicated backlinks between tiny little documents but I just use it like a souped-up notepad

holocene ideas?

Ahhh — I used to have a page on my site of a history of the world in the Holocene era calendar (the current year plus 10,000, basically), trying to put the scale of human history in perspective. I scrapped it because, well, i am just one person, with my own biases and knowledge-gaps, and i couldn't realistically expect myself to ever cover every major event

slimysomething 3 years ago

That sounds like something I could try. I've collected a bunch of history notes since I learned about the holocene calendar years ago. - Also, I found that page by guessing the url.

The interesting thing would be seeing how ancient dates change, modern ones are pretty obvious.

I actually used to use it across the site, before i realised that i just didn’t talk about ancient dates enough for it to be worth the alienation — and even for those ancient dates, it rendered them unrecognisable to the lay reader.

Recently saw another site (I believe they follow me — if the webmaster is reading this, hi 🙂) describe me as one of the “earliest sites in the small web movement”, or something of the sort, and honestly it was quite strange — i don’t really think of myself as being… part of any kind of movement? I’m just making a personal website because it’s fun and i have the resources to do it, same as anyone else way back when.

I don’t really partake in the broader “community” of people who are very much About Making Personal Sites: i’m not on any Discords or Mastoda or Pleromæ or Blorbochats or what have you, i don’t have a guestbook, i’ve tried to be restrained with the more Geocitiesque elements, i try to steer clear of meta-commentary about The State Of Ye Web and technology… it doesn’t feel right being lumped in with them. 🤔

i think at this point people assume any webmaster on neocities has some affiliation with the yesterweb movement and things like that, probably because the yesterweb sentiment is the reason neocities exists
