I went to Little Dell a month ago, and this is what it was like.

Upgraded the primary domain for this site to its final form here at the end of the internet:

Welcome to joshuaw.xyz

1. Updated the home page of this site today, adding prominent links to RSS feeds, a gallery of recent post images, and returning a link to the “Featured / Longer Things” post collection. Now I need to update the front matter of all the other missing posts that belong in that “featured” collection.

And with the images back I feel like I should start taking and posting more photographs of things other than just screenshots and shit I bought.

I had in mind a new reading update rule for 2022 - I wasn’t going to post a reading update about any book (neither here nor on Goodreads) until I was at least 10-15% of the way into the book.

But I forgot my rule, and now the books I barely started and haven’t continued to read are hanging over my head, and I hate all you big invisible jerks for holding me silently accountable for every random thing I post here.

Here are some of the things I’m working on and thinking about now…

I recently built and shared this ‘Top Titles of 2021’ thing at work.

‘Album Released’ notifications might be my very favorite phone notifications.

Turns out I can’t resist the re-read.

I often find myself tinkering with already-published notes on this site. I initially thought of this as a confession, because at times I’ve felt that editing old posts (beyond fixing minor typos or bugs) is somehow cheating.

I finished reading Moon Witch Spider King yesterday evening.
