I've been itching to overhaul my site layout, but I both don't have a vision for the new layout, and am not sure I'm ready to part with the current layout, lol.

I get that struggle- it's the reason I have a website templates page. XD Gets the "new layout" urge out without causing me issues.

As someone once told me, you're not a Neocitizen until you've impulsively overhauled your site multiple times

My zine page now has three zines on it. I've been going back and forth trying to figure out if I want to share all three. They're very vulnerable, and I draw my face fairly realistically in them. I'm more comfortable blurring the face and sharing, because I am proud of these and I want others to see it

Inspiring! You make me want to create a zine. Your emotions shine through with such clarity. I hope you can continue to explore yourself with this medium.

I'm glad the blur doesn't feel out of place! I really appreciate you taking the time to comment <3 and thank you, I felt really connected to that drawing. I'm glad it connects with you too!
I love your index page, it's so charming. I also read your Connect zine and i really related to what you wrote. Cheering you on from this side of the screen <3

Beautiful sentiment. I tell myself the same thing, that no matter what, things will be different tomorrow. It makes things seem more important. I have to know, what was the website/blog you mentioned?

That's a good approach, I should try it! Also, coming from a trans guy, I cut and have cut my hair a lot (mainly fringe adjustment or undercuts). Partially for the cheapness/convenience, but also I really dislike the hair salon experience for multiple reasons.

Thank you both for your kind comments. I'm glad I'm not alone with the hair cutting. It's such a personal thing. I found https://noodledesk.net/garden/dessin this post impactful, and almost tangentially related, regarding uncertainty and the idea that the things we desire are closer than we think. I wrote that sentence, really, having multiple websites/blogs in mind that have touched me during my short time here.

Vashti, I really like what you wrote the other day about there always being things waiting to be loved. Somehow that felt like a reminder that there's always beauty along the way, and I remember it helping me through the evening
