welcome to this website: a personal stake in the internet with a 199x vibe1 but built using 202x tech2

sentances are short and sweet and barely punctuated

ideal for those living in a 160 character world3

within this website are pages that may contain paragraphs with multiple sentances, the oxford comma, and daring punctuation‼︎4

if you were expecting excitement, adventure, and really wild things on the index page, sorry to disappoint

if you are new here, you might want to read some of my “slashpages”5:

  1. a minimilistic aesthetic because information doesn’t need chrome ↩︎

  2. the magic behind this website is an instance of an identity/blog/social platform detailed in /colophon ↩︎

  3. WTF happened to people: why did attention spans drop and now people are only able to communicate in sentances of at most 160 characters ↩︎

  4. in addition to using punctuation like “double exclamation mark”, footnotes abound liberally ↩︎

  5. it occurs to me that it might be worth discussing why the “/” which prefixes these pages is referred to as slash and not stroke (which is a bit weird because the former is a US English thing, and as we all know, URLs were invented by a Brit — TimBL — where stoke is the UK English thing) ↩︎
