What’s all this about eh?

I want somewhere more permanent than a social media blog to keep my random works, commissions and intrusive thoughts. This is probably best described as a digital garden, if you want to be a hipster about it. If you’ve stumbled into here, great. Enjoy your stay.

There has been some buzz from people waking up to the enshittification process of platforms. This kind of thing isn’t a solution to that. The idea of ‘going back’ is always bullshit. Geocities was ugly, it’s look was ignorance and un-style. TikTok sludge videos have more in common with the 00’s web than building semi-ironic webspaces that touch on the aesthetic. That’s not to say there isn’t a place for that stuff and I love it for it’s own cyber-queer-net-art reasons.

Speaking of cyberqueer, part of the purpose of this site is to collect my furry trash. I’m old enough to have spent long nights on IRC pretending to be a cartoon animal. Do U RP? Yes, and I’m good at it. I still love the excitment of going to meet with people I only know as a screen name. It’s been a major force in my queer journey and continues to be. I’m not going to get into my opinions on the state of the fandom, how it’s changing, whether the changes are good or bad imo. Nothing lasts forever and that’s a good thing.
