So as a bit of a followup to my earlier post “What we in the open world are messing up in trying to compete with big tech ”: please (mostly) stop harassing people doing the right thing from the wrong platforms. We often see journalists, politicians, writers, NGOs and even software developers writing good things on...

Random photographs from my phone's camera roll in May.

New artwork in the style of early 2000s visual novel CGs: Pigeon Girl (Anime and Manga). Hope you like it!

I like headings. They help organize content and make it easier to read. Inspired by my neovim config, I wanted to recreate a similar style for headings in my website. Light Theme Dark Theme Figure 1: My neovim headings in light and dark themes. I think they turned out pretty well! Heading 1 Heading 2 Heading 3...

Over the last few days, I've been working on my endurance. I've increased my running time around the tennis courts, and when I have time off, I try to get some workouts done in the house. It's not always fun trying to get in shape at first. When you've been sitting around for a while, you don't always feel like...

Reflections on week 2 of the Walking in this World course

Sharing posts throughout June 2025

Here’s some stuff I’ve experienced lately (and not necessarily only new releases)...

臥龍山荘 川辺に佇む数寄屋。 個人の在り様を確立し、守るための空間。 大きな松の一枚板が継ぎ目なく広がり、廊下の松の一枚板には意図的に溝を施している（一見するとよくある廊下に見える）。 杉の一枚板には絵が描かれ、竹の網代天井──船底のような円形で、午前には川面の光が反射して水面を携える。 襖にはコウモリの意匠、縁側の釘の一部には作り手の名前が刻まれているなど、至る所に「洒落」が利いている。 「書院」というルールを少しずつ自分なりに変え、自分らしい場所をつくり、そこに客人を招いてもてなす。 個人ベースの付き合いを実現するための〈空間装置〉。 公式サイト：https://www.garyusanso.jp/ Garyu Sanso...

Special Edition — Small Web Communities TL;DR:Small web communities helped me feel more confident and less lonely. This blog post has approximately 928 words and may take 5 minutes to read. This post was submitted as part of the Indieweb Carnival for May 2025, hosted by Chris, under the theme "Small Web...

Another month gone. We’re damn near halfway through this year already. Time just moves too fast. This was a mixed month for me if we’re being honest. A lot of tech problems. A few expensive things I didn’t anticipate. Many things that just didn’t go my way this month. But I kept on tracking. I really do love doing...

There's a smell to sickness. A slow kind of rot. It is soft and written between the lines, cushioned by cotton and something worse than antiseptic. It's in the bodily fluids and the inhaled dust of crushed pills that are to be diluted in water and pushed through a feeding tube, which will be black by the time...

May 31, 2025 Hey friends, when I'm looking for an answer or doing research, I rarely use Google anymore. I've been using ChatGPT instead. Depending on what I'm after, it can take forever to dig through Google results to find what I need. ChatGPT just gets to the point. ChatGPT also learns about me. It knows I use...

What I've been up to this month? Work on a promotional film for the fediverse... and preparations to speak at a FOSS conference in Lyon

Patience is learned by being patient, the exercise of mental control and physical discipline. The muscle of patience grows by being flexed. ¶ This day is for peace, calm, acceptance, contentment, willingness to wait and see what the Lord has prepared. ¶ I learned to enjoy coffee, but there's still nothing like a cup...

Home again from college, with a now three-day headache. I never really got over the motion sickness from the bus; I'm one of those people who have to get knocked out immediately because you can't be sick if you're not awake. Unfortunately, I was awake for way too long. I haven't been making it easier for myself by...
