This is a note to whoever messaged me pleading. I've removed the audio from the main site as requested. You made cogent points, no lies there. It was, indeed, a frivolous, annoying feature. Now, it's gone. Sorry to those who found the chimes annoying. They won't return!

"I'm thinking I'll write a list of all the reasons the 2000s were somewhat terrible" - Please do lol, I notice a lot of people in this sphere were single digits around then and don't know the full scope. The internet was (somewhat) better and so was media (IMO), but that's only so much...

You might notice this is a semi-major update, but not why! I've added a few lines of Javascript which expand the text and central column when displayed in neocities's screenshots, and also have finally combined most of my Javascript into a single file.

@burning-heart I was glad to add you. The button wall on my site is randomized, so each time the page loads, the buttons display in a different order.
You may have seen the dog (Lulu) in the sidebar. Would you like to know more about her, and website mascots in general? I've written a short guide, featuring trivia about Lulu and tips for choosing your own mascot. https://fabled.day/medium/lulu

Aw, Lulu is adorable! Love the profile you write for her! I've been putting off creating a profile page for my site's mascot for a while now, but reading your article on the topic has motivated me to finally get it done.

To be honest, my inclusion of audio when someone hovered over a link was just because of my sheer joy at the ability to quickly and easily do so, rather than the morass that would've been required in the Before Times. That was the only reason. And yes, it was annoying. Sorry.
