the website has launched!

well, not quite yet. i still need to actually push a git commit and then push the site to neocities. and then hope that nothing breaks in the process. but the finish line is so, so close! for reference, i started this project around this time last year, but was too busy to actually get any progress made. at the time i was still using windows on my home setup, so i had to use wsl to work with jekyll, which was unbelievably janky. i also have a profound habit of distro-hopping, but in a way where i regularly just wipe my drives in the process, so the original files are all very much gone. but anyway, now i’m !!unemployed!! and running mxfb on my laptop, so i’ve got plenty of time and working with hugo was a bit of a smoother process. i still need to figure out how to make the rss and sitemap xml pages not look like shit. or are they supposed to look like shit? i don’t know. i think i’m too young to know how rss feeds work. i also need to fix an issue with the custom cursors where hovering over a hyperlinked image doesn’t give you the hyperlink pointer. annoyinggggggggggg.

well, if you’re reading this, then hopefully everything has gone without a hitch. i hope you’re all having a good week. i know i did! i made yogurt and everything! may this be a strong step forward in the journey of this blog. or something.
