I was planning on starting a tiny solo podcast this year but instead I'm crocheting for the winter and focusing on my drawing course for now. I'll focus on talking some other time.

The plan to blog more hasn't really caught wind yet. The main reason is that I need to be at my computer to make new entries. Tried sanity.io, a headless CMS, to make my life easier but it was a too big of a hassle to use. Haven't found a CMS with good enough UX and DX for my needs. I'll probably just wait for the GitHub app to get better.

I've been enjoying reading more blogs and less social media but I miss actually visiting blogs. As an experiment I switched from Reeder to Mailbrew and set up a weekly digest of my favourite blogs. Excited to try it out!

I've had a varied and mostly fun career in web development so far. I say mostly because there have been incredibly shitty times with crunch and bad management. I wouldn't change a thing though. The memories of the bad parts make my current job even sweeter.
