Who?
It’s best to know me about the things I am sorely disappointed with:
- It’s been more than two decades in the twenty-first century and we still don’t have Gundams or Digimons. On deeper contemplation, that is probably for the better.
- Why does a day only have twenty-four hours? That’s hardly enough for all my hobbies and I have to sleep for approximately eight of them!
- Very unfortunate that Guillermo Del Toro’s Pacific Rim never had a sequel.
- That the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis does not work like in the film Arrival.
What?
This website/blog (pick the more appropriately archaic term) has been many things to me for many years. When it started I was just a teenager who wanted to pour my thoughts out into the internet, participating in the revolution of user-generated content, the beating heart of Web 2.0. Somewhere in the passage of the stream we call time it became a way for me to consume mindfully, in the books I read and the films I watched.
Today I keep a daily journal where I pour my thoughts into. Mindful consumption has remained a struggle but the journal helps with it. As for this website/blog? It might be a relic of an internet long gone but in a world where technology could always be at the reckless cutting edge then relics are resistance.
I am simultaneously the teenager who started this and no longer the teenager who started this. Welcome to my head and be so kind as to not judge me from my thoughts past.
