+ <p>
+ Look I'm hardly the first to do this but I think we all know the
+ internet is shit now. Like. Really, really shit. It would be
+ naive to say that the internet was perfect in its early days.
+ But it was definitely less centralised, with many people
+ maintaining their own pages, using webrings to link to people
+ they like. It was collaborative and communicative and a platform
+ of passions.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Then for a while everyone was in the same place, although that
+ place changed every like. year or so. I never really used
+ MySpace or Bebo, but I got on Twitter really early and gave
+ myself lifelong Poster's Sickness.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Obviously Twitter is absolute shite now and has been for a fair
+ while. I moved to bluesky, and that's ok, but every so often I
+ want to write longer Things. Usually about movies or games,
+ sometimes about programming stuff since that is... my job.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ I used backloggd for games for a bit but the culture on that
+ site fucking annoyed me, and I don't think letterboxd is likely
+ to be any better. So instead I can make my own website without a
+ comment website. Then if you want to disagree with me you can dm
+ me directly and then we can digitally kiss.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ So yeah. Programming is my job, and because the web is stupid
+ now, most of what I work on is in Angular or Razor. Which do
+ have their conveniences, but also they're kind of a pain when
+ you just want to make something simple to scratch down thoughts
+ in.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Also I'm pretty sure an Angular SPA would get very mad at you if
+ you tried to put a marquee tag in it. And since marquee is the
+ greatest tag in the history of the web, we can't have that.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Anyway, that's probably it for this first entry. If you wanna
+ find me elsewhere, check the links below, else ta for now love.
