outside of how quaint your entire site's aesthetic is (adore it !!!) i want to say its so beautiful just how dedicated you are to keeping it non-anglocentric...and i cant help but wish i could've done this with bengali ´ _`) ... i have spanish on my language learning to-do folio anyway so looking forward to make my way through a treasure trove of it in such exquisite packaging @ that..!

THANKU SO MUCH What a lovely comment, you've made me so happy :,) I wish you the best of luck learning Spanish, and I hope you feel inspired to create more content in your native language. Exploring your website is truly a unique experience, I love it! I really love your scrapbook, I loved reading and exploring it, it motivated me to try making one too. My other favorite part was the layout of your shrines section~

been playing a lot of zzz lately and i had this late night epiphany to redo my entire layout similar to its UI like a week back....i drafted it and everything but i dont feel like parting with my current one 😭 the chaos and the popping colors..all of it is exactly what the inside of my brain is like!

my issue is going for a refined, more polished layout that has evolved with my sense of design would mean compromising the amateurish charm + indie web nostalgia that comes with it and im too attached to my site feeling that way......

Yes! When I wanted to try out making a site, I didn't come up with a name yet, but already wanted to host it to check out how neocities works. And I picked this line as a temporary name, intending to swap it for something shorter, because this is kinda ridiculously long for a website URL
Somehow, it stuck, but it works well. The name sounds nice and evokes an interesting image. And people who like Coil instantly recognize the line
I also probably picked it at the time when I was under the impression that studying math will make me see the world differently and open up some new hidden knowledge about it (never happened)
love this...sometimes whims do have a way of cementing themselves into lasting miracles and personally i agree with you on it being an evocative and mystifying phrase...def makes anybody that reads it to want to visit! (i feel the same way about physics lol)
