I don’t think I’ve kept a regular blog since LiveJournal, which probably stopped 15 years ago or more.
What I have been doing, which I perpetually regret, is making long, painstaking replies to obscure comments on reddit – comments that will likely be read by one person, at most – but which, I believe, do carry some value. Additionally, I’ve been using twitter to post songs that come on that I’ve particularly enjoyed. I had very few followers. Twitter is a terrible venue, and it’s a uniquely terrible venue for music sharing, and recently, as I’m sure you’ve heard, Twitter has made a series of public announcements suggesting that they would prefer to make their venue even worse for every use-case.
And today, when looking to discover whether Autistici runs a Mastodon server, I discovered this, their NOBLOGS array. I hope to use this space as a better home for both of the above activities.
My areas of interest are:
- LGBTQ rights.
- Autism.
- Music.
- Occasionally writing & literature?
- Politics.
I also had a secret twitter account that I used to write poems. I don’t know if I’ll carry that here. I’ll talk about why at some point, but not right now.
In closing, here’s a song that came on today that I had forgotten about.
