I like Obsidian, you're meant to have all these weird complicated backlinks between tiny little documents but I just use it like a souped-up notepad
Man, would like to thank you for following me, your site is one of the most well designed I've ever seen, hugs
Ahhh — I used to have a page on my site of a history of the world in the Holocene era calendar (the current year plus 10,000, basically), trying to put the scale of human history in perspective. I scrapped it because, well, i am just one person, with my own biases and knowledge-gaps, and i couldn't realistically expect myself to ever cover every major event
That sounds like something I could try. I've collected a bunch of history notes since I learned about the holocene calendar years ago. - Also, I found that page by guessing the url.
The interesting thing would be seeing how ancient dates change, modern ones are pretty obvious.
I actually used to use it across the site, before i realised that i just didn’t talk about ancient dates enough for it to be worth the alienation — and even for those ancient dates, it rendered them unrecognisable to the lay reader.
I don’t really partake in the broader “community” of people who are very much About Making Personal Sites: i’m not on any Discords or Mastoda or Pleromæ or Blorbochats or what have you, i don’t have a guestbook, i’ve tried to be restrained with the more Geocitiesque elements, i try to steer clear of meta-commentary about The State Of Ye Web and technology… it doesn’t feel right being lumped in with them. 🤔
i think at this point people assume any webmaster on neocities has some affiliation with the yesterweb movement and things like that, probably because the yesterweb sentiment is the reason neocities exists
Note to self — really must figure out how to synchronise comments between Wordpress and my home-baked PHP spaghetti before Lords of Misrule comes around again.
It’s time again for Lords of Misrule! Email me anything you want* before the 16th of December, and i’ll put it on the site with its own fancy formatting. You can even vandalise my other pages if you ask nicely. (*No politics and nothing that would get me in legal trouble, please)
