I grew up in the 20th Century. Because of that, I suspect my first experience of the word “totem” was probably in a piece of fictional media (television, probably) where the word “totem pole” was used.

Back in 2016 I was using Twitter far more than I used this website, to my own detriment.

I emailed James about his post Brainstorming a tool to follow new album releases with Wikipedia. He mentions my mirrored IndieWeb Profile page. I mentioned in the email that the more interesting page from the IndieWeb wiki I mirror is the Front End Study Hall page. That page pulls in the content of the page,...

I met a pelican yesterday at Ocean Beach. The pelican, I think, was trying to steal my handplanes. There’s a video.

I think about flags. I don’t know that I want to put the energy out there around this, but I wrote this. And I don’t want to begrudge people having a good time on Independence Day. But also my nationalism is on hiatus. But I love the idea of the United States. A Trump flag...
