So, my website is up and running. Not much going on in the Text page at this point, but I'll be adding to it. Figured I'd embed Bandcamp player into the website instead of uploading audio files. This project is so much fun.

Yeah, her voice is really special. I haven't checked out their newer stuff as well. I think the vocalist has a solo project.

Just finished Kanafani's 'Men in the Sun (رجال في الشمس)'. I knew what was going to happen and it still hit me right in the guts. His writing feels like a dream or a memory. There's a familiarity to it. Feels like remembering the events as you are reading. His 'On Men and Rifles' felt the same.

The plan for the weekend is to pick up a train model from the hobby shop. I want to kit bash it into a rusty tank on tracks.

I want to build a wee cyberdeck that is only VCV Rack. I know nothing about programming or electronics but I'm autistic, so how hard can this project be?

I have been thinking about the things I create (sounds, music, visual art, etc). I've found that so long as it was make in earnest, I will always be proud of it.

The way I like to experience Star Wars media is to accept that it was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. That's why the details can be murky, contradictory, or even silly.
