Of the nearly 8,000 views on my silly little page, I wonder how many of those are just me checking to see if what I coded actually works, or coming back to see the finished product. I know it's not a totally accurate count of unique user visit or anything, especially if you account for the Wayback Machine and other scrapers, but it's cool to imagine something like this having any audience at all.

I'm having a send-off for one of my ducklings (interns) that's flying the coop. They've been an incredible help this summer. I've also been propagandizing a bit, trying to get them to get a website built for their writing! They found the site tagging feature on Neocities handy, and found the idea of a web ring fascinating. Here's hoping they take a swing at it!

go to the top right panel, click your username and then profile. scroll to the bottom to see your tags. press the delete button, and pick one of your 5 tags to delete. then you should be able to add a new one

Fun fact! Trying to code a new index page while doing an approach in a Boeing 787 is really hard! Ended up 12,000 feet high and had to hold for a while. I'll get this sucker landed and get my navigation panel set up to account for the site change in a bit.

Plane? Landed. Navigation panel? Fixed on all pages to account to the new index page and new homepage URL.

It's not showing the change on the thumbnail, but I removed the call to action for my friend's GoFundMe. Things have stabilized to a point where they should be good. Thanks once again to anyone and everyone who chipped in. It's a relief to see them doing better.

I'll probably turn the index page into one of those fun lil splash pages at some point. My site is in desperate need of some whimsy.

(frankly, it means a lot more to me that a handful of you meaningfully engage with my updates. Work has kicked my butt this summer and I haven't had time to return the favor as much as I'd like, but y'all make neat stuff too π₯Ί
