A listing of all long-form posts published to-date. Herein, you'll find my thoughts on concepts, ideas, politics, and more.

The HTML Element Quiz!Today I was looking for things to write about while I push through the main story quests in Zenless Zone Zero. Which, might I add, has like, 400 million lines of dialogue to move through in-between all the latter half of the game’s action. But, it was suggested to me...

GameDevs Working Against Linux Users For ReasonsIf you recently abandoned, or maybe even never used Windows, you might be like me, in that, you don’t get to play the likes of Fortnite, or especially games like Valorant, and Call of Duty. Maybe for some, this is a net positive, or you just don’t care either way....

Tumblr Trying To Squeeze Into ActivityPubAt the news that Tumblr will be “joining” ActivityPub after its migration to Wordpress completes, I have some thoughts.
