A Blog is Born

Why have I started a blog in 2023, over a decade after blogs stopped being a thing that individuals have? Well, the story isn’t super interesting, but I always felt limited by the few hundred characters that I could post on Twitter. Additionally the culture over there seemed to be mostly snark, dunks, arguments, and hatred. After all of the recent-ish events that have happened at twitter I could no longer use the service. I created a Mastodon account, and the culture there seems to be much better, but I still feel the limitation of only having several hundred characters. I’ll definitely try to use it more than I did Twitter.

So I started a blog. I expect very few people will ever read it 😂 and that’s O.K. with me! The site is still a work in progress, but I’m happy enough with it to go ahead and publish it. What will I post here? Things I’m interested in; weather things, computer things, managing humans things, books I’ve read, etc. Ultimately, time will tell how I use. I’m excited to have this space and share things with you all!
