I’m back®©™. I’ve been visiting a few of the personal websites that I already got to know thanks to neocities, so could say I never left? But I admit I rarely visit those sites without RSS feeds.

There are more updates I want to do here, related to both content and the layout (I want to give everyone an excuse to read the thoughts I have about the stuff I watch without reading my entire posts!) but this will do for now.

I liked the idea of answering the questions in this prompt I found on layercake, but I think I’ll split it into many entries of several questions at a time because a few of them deserve a post(s) of their own.

Ok let’s say I’m back. I have a lot of stuff to do, tho.

I should’t add new content without “finishing” the design of my web first. The main menu is incomplete, the microblog could have its own RSS feed, my media log doesn’t have a proper index, bla bla. So I’ll be working on this for the next couple of days.

It’ll be hard, but hey.

I have not abandoned my site. I simply haven’t been active anywhere online

In fact, I haven’t been very active irl, which is a problem. There are projects I haven’t tocuhed in months and I feel guilty about it.

By the way, this site supports RSS. Not just its root (/): every section like /blog, /favorites, and /anime also has a feed. Just add the URL you’re interested in to your RSS reader and it should find the resource (and if it can’t, just add the /index.xml.) I haven’t included a feed for the microblog because of reasons.

Well, this is a hello world of sorts for the microblogging feature.

I kinda like it. For the preview thingie I tried to make it like a TV, so it clamps the text to only show the first two lines and starts from the bottom.

As with everything else so far on my website, I didn’t use JavaScript. Maybe I should have. Working with font sizes in CSS has always been a pain, and there are certain things that don’t support transitioning.
