🎤 Is This Thing On?

Hello! I haven’t touched my blog in… well, over four years, according to my last post. In fact, my blog was actually completely broken for a couple of years, and I didn’t even realize it! But recently I decided to redo my website (mostly because of my interest in Paul Hudson’s Ignite static site generator), which gave me the opportunity to give everything a new coat of paint, including this blog. Additionally, with Mastodon 4.3 adding support for author attribution, I thought it might be an interesting opportunity to explore Fediverse integration. Of course, testing author attribution requires linking one of my blog posts on Mastodon, and I definitely don’t want to link to one of my old posts (although they’re all there, if you care about my international travels in 2019 among other things). So, now I’ve posted again!

Does this mean you’ll be posting more frequently?

Unlikely? I don’t think I have very many insightful things to say, in all honesty. I’m much more of a passive consumer of blogs, media, and the Fediverse, and don’t see that changing just because I brushed off the ol’ blog. But I suppose this post breaks a 4.5-year streak of not posting, so maybe this does mean something. Who knows.

In the meantime, enjoy this picture that I took in Toronto’s Graffiti Alley a couple of weeks ago.

If you ever find yourself in Toronto, definitely take an hour or so to explore Graffiti Alley!
