I love writing letters so much
5 likes
yardonthirdstreet 3 months ago

I find myself returning to past letters every now and then (maybe on a monthly basis?) and drawing out (perhaps foolishly) more depth than may be intended from each transmission

and to fully set the scene: I usually (and am now) letting Sea Oleena's voice float across the room

not to bypass the whole context, but *pointing and cheering* walter benjamin mention

there's something immensely insufficient about saying "I like your writing", but also I don't have a better way to put it. Your notes are both scattered and fluid in a way that speaks to me? "so much of myself I want to pour out into the world" etc does something spot-on.

why not encourage friend and neocitizens to doodle gargoyles for you instead?

nohappy that is an EPIC idea.... im thinking already existing widely circulated images to feed would-be site scrapers some trash should this part of the web get taken for machine learning

! hey re: your comment on my call for folks to send in their websites, I put mine under the "HTML" category... tbh I'm pretty indifferent to the map they supplied so I would maybe go with anything "handmade" "personal"...

thank you! i agree about the map.. it's hard to draw lines like that, though i feel a lot more comfortable picking HTML knowing that's what you chose, too

Please nominate sites / send in your own to https://internetphonebook.net/ — while the focus is on "designers, developers, artists, educators" et al., I feel a good chunk of the folks here would bring an important perspective & dimension to explorations of the web/net.

i'm planning to send mine in! though i'm struggling to pick a category. i think i tend towards idiosyncratic but aspire to HTML. which one did you go with?

also oops, seems like there's no way to nominate? so the updated call is — if you're comfortable, would be great to see your (& your Neocities neighbors') websites in this directory
