Hello, friends. I've made myself a little place to Post that isn't a major social media platform. I feel better in myself when I don't visit those places as often; and I don't want you to have to go through them to find me. I also appreciate the space to think out loud and at more length. You already know the rationale.
I'm planning to add an RSS feed, and then to automatically tweet a link to each new Post, since I'd like you to be able to keep up however you like. I also don't see this as the final design; it doesn't matter too much, so I'm just shipping it for now.
I've wanted a personal blog-type place for a while, but there are a surprising number of ways you can be self-conscious about presenting yourself. I want to get outside the confines of the big platforms, and post my jokes as well as longer explorations about what I'm reading, playing, and thinking. I want to give myself room to dream, to be both an idealist and a realist... and this is a small part of that.
