(8/22/25) had my therapist start reading my current writing because that's where the bulk of my processing gets done and they asked if I spoke spanish cuz there's a significant amount of spanish speaking in part one, but they said it like "I was wondering if that's another one of your skills" and it was really nice. making this website has made me feel a lot more competent, not because the website is a masterpiece or anything but because it gives me a space to share stuff I am proud of rather than what I think an algorithm will like, so I can hear a compliment like that and actually believe it :3
(8/22/25) love when I start writing an article about weird current events, and then as soon as I get to the historical context it's like oh fuck actually the whole thing has to be about this
(8/15/25) upon rewatching, Danny Phantom is more dated than I remembered. not just culturally, that's fine, but like. mmm some of those jokes a lil spicy in not a good way
(8/15/25) social media has always been the place to dump my art and I never feel much about it as a result, even when I post it here, but I feel good about the prose I just posted. I've never shared my prose on the internet before and having a dedicated space for it with essentially no expectation that people will read it or meaningfully interact with it feels good. it can't be for reward, which means I can just focus on doing what makes me feel proud of it instead of trying to game some fucked up algorithm. maybe it'll help me eventually feel better about drawing what I want to draw, too.
(8/15/25) I really need to fix some shit on this website ;w; I have a few div and image IDs that exist to do something that should've been default in what I already have but I wanted it done for the pages they were on so I just made a bandaid version instead of simply improving my original code. also the index is kinda... fucked? it's a centered box on a background and I have it set to only show the box part when on mobile, but because I was confused about how to manage flex properties without the guidelines of the rest of the site, it just looks like shit on smaller screens. the claw machine also scales a little weird but that's because it was originally a widget and I just did the bare minimum to make it work on my website rather than re-coding the whole thing (can you imagine)
