Seriously I have no freaking idea how to make a cool page

It doesn’t help that I’m a laziest motherfucker on the planet with strong aversion to work. I’ve been trying to read this cool book called “Thinking with Type” (that’s type as in typography, not coding times you nerd), and I ran into two problems. 1. I can’t fucking read anything longer than a page 2. I have no idea what my page’s concept is.

I mean I can look around neocities, cuz neocities has a bunch of cool pages out there right. Like this one, I really like the whole intro and everything, very cool, pastel-goth, vampiric etc. Amazing.

Maybe the deal is that it’s more like an organic growth kind of thing. Like how I’ve been making it that my posts would look nice on the index page on mobile, and fixing that my headers would not fuck up the post summaries in Hugo etc. Vampire Apologist has like 4000+ updates! can you believe that! And here I am, making my 10th commit I think. So like…. I guess it’s more like a journey rather than a sprint here.

I’m still playing the piano, looking forward to receive my m’vave fm-1 because I MUST CONSUME PRODUCT. I purchase therefore I am. That’s a p good idea lemme write it down.

I guess that’s the deal, the fear of the white paper or something, you just keep on staring at it. AT LEAST the good news is that I can bust out like 500 words in a blog post on a drop of a dime LOL.

My work today was not good, so much paperwork to do after you have a child. But all my ducks are going into a row, after about 3 weeks I’ll have a WHOLE MONTH to spend with my newborn. BOY HOWDY! Going to Costco and buying crap mmMMMMMMMMMMM yes that’s lovely.

Fuck I’m such a boomer now man. I’m getting fat and my hair’s falling out too. Am I literally over the hill now? I guess time will tell.

SO ANYWAY the big question really is “when do we start doing the COOL stuff” and the answer is “we are doing the cool stuff”. Like today I actually browsed the neocities.org site, it’s much better than just browsing reddit y’know. Found some cool pages and eventually I’ll be making my own “cool page”. I’m still finding a vibe for it, but it’s coming. I’ve been cleaning my house around and once again, you won’t believe it, you can clean the house… bit by bit. It’s that simple!

I’ll still keep on writing these blogs dude.

I get so fucking distracted all the time like I’ve been jonesing for new ink for my fountain pen y’know. Like I used this one bottle for like 8 years and finally it ran out. I wrote like 8 years worth of diaries with one bottle (I used other pens and whatever as well sometimes okay)

Then my wife has this one bottle of ink that’s just black and I’m like man I COULD just use this black ink but it’s just not my vibe yknow. That Pilot Yama-budo rocked (despite it having literally ZERO waterproofness like fuck you. Worst part? When it got on your fingers. Then it stained your fingers for a whole day. Like what the fuck why can’t it stay on the paper when it gets wet but on fingers it’ll just stay there)

I ended up surfing for inks for like 50 minutes and ended up getting a Diamine Royal Blue. I just don’t vibe with black inks! Didn’t wanna get another purple one either. I was thinking about red but that’ll give me eye-strain y’know.

Fuck idk why I’m so ADHD today lol. But okay I’ll brush my teeth and off to bed. Tomorrow I’ll do some actual work and get some shit done.
