I’m about halfway done with my Kyoto guide
I will publish it here on this website
I’m so excited about it because you see
After you’ve lived in a city for a while
Extended family and friends will sometimes message you to get your tips and tricks…
And actually most of these are not even direct
It would be like my mum or my sister bullying me to help their friends
And at the beginning I’ll be like, ok fine, and write a whole thing that’s personalized
But after 10 years it got old
So now I’ll have this link ready to go muahaha (machiavelic laugh)
I added dark and light modes.
But then I got a bit sidetracked and added other themes.
Right now I’m just swapping colors and fonts but maybe, maybe in the future I will also change the layout slightly.
Also updated the colophon
Actually Obsidian wasn’t it… It would scan my folder again and again upon startup
Trying out another Markdown app called Markdown Pro right now
I also made a script that detects changes to my messages folder on my iCloud Drive and pushes to GitHub automatically
Maybe a bad idea?
Testing writing messages from my phone
Synced Obsidian via iCloud
Now I wondering how I could push from mobile…
Took some time but I’ve figured it out
I added categories to these messages
Each category has its own color kinda mirroring how Messenger channels work
It helps me to create different tones
Not sure what my categories are gonna be yet…
I want this to be my personal website.
But I also want to show some of my work stuff.
I find it pretty hard to conciliate both lives together on a website.
That’s why for the longest time I always had two sites.
A personal fucked up one.
And a professional portfolio.
I wonder if I could merge both of my worlds here…
Hey…
I want my website to help me think.
I don’t want to have to think to help my website, if that makes sense.
Blogging… never really worked for me.
Blogging assumes you already did all of the thinking and are able to formulate it, grrr; I have attention deficit just thinking about that
And then I stumbled upon this blog by artist and designer anhvn and I thought the chat bubbles format was genius.
I reached out to her on Mastodon and she kindly told me it was ok to borrow the idea
Actually, she wrote about this in a post from 2022
One of her inspiration, Max Krieger, who also seems brilliant BTW, and ends up his post quoting The Tools for Conviviality from Ivan Illich 😎
I’m not a very good writer, but like most people, I’m a pretty decent chatter
So I’m gonna try this and see.
