welcome to neocities -w- if you're just learning html i recommend going back and forth between w3 and medium as they both have programming resources the other doesn't. which is kinda infuriating

alright this took like 2 whole days but the sources have been ported to the references section via html anchors

massive visual overhaul of the glossary, plus added terms of the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie/proletariat

also self-referential linking so you can navigate the glossary easier and tertiary colouring for understanding major details from a skim

the bizarre thing about looking into the humanity of castro and the snark of lenin and the sarcasm of ho chi minh is it helps me realize i don't have to take everything so formally. i'm human. i can relax a bit and be colloquial, even if the theory i write is much more elaborate

reading about how these guys actually acted also sort of makes them more tangible to me lol. It's really comforting to know that all these people that inspired so much change were also just people too :)

my laptop can't handle your website's home page but the music on your landing page is very comforting -w-

it's very laggy still (this laptop is cobbled together and manually partially upgraded from a poor-quality supposedly all-purpose laptop so that's less on you and more on my hardware) but i have a high enough framerate i can scroll through

Alright I'm taking a break I've been editing pages for hours and it's genuinely a slog fixing all of my poorly optimized code

The time is close enough that I've changed the notice from 48 to 12 hours. I have no words.

The site will be experiencing mild visual changes over the next few days, mainly this change of colour scheme, but additionally fixing some of the special characters I replaced with standard ASCII to their HTML callsigns to render as I initially intended.

This is mainly just to make making new pages easier but I figured I'd pop in some useful info on the page itself

honestly i should put the (verbatim) notice from https://lupinus.neocities.org - Houdini Magazine: "I am asking all neocities webmasters that follow me to take my current index code and change your homepage to that message for the next 48 hours. This is a call to action." (code from https://erikhoudini.com/)
So as it turns out, HTML can't read non-roman characters or diacritics, and I have to call them manually with HTML ASCII identifiers. The code looks like absolute spaghetti.
