Welcome to the Shitshow

Congratulations! You've found my website - my last bastion against smartphones, social media, and AI taking over my life. I just wanted a place to put things I or other humans make without the pressure of algorithms, comment sections, or doomscrolling.

This website is a labor of love and something I mostly work on in my free time at work. This is the third design so far, and I think it both accurately reflects me and also looks decent on mobile. Kind of goes against my smartphone thing, but I don't really give a shit.

This is also an exercise in assertiveness. I'm tired of wallflowering my way through life. I need to be a real flesh and blood human being who has interests and opinions. Social media feels too attached to real life for me to actually express myself these days and therapy's expensive only once a week, so here we are.

Feel free to leave a message in my chat or just take a look around.

08/3/2025
  • Created the Sketchbook page to show off my irl art journal and some assorted writing I've done. It's linked through the library right now, but I might add it to the main navigation if I feel like it.
07/28/2025

07/18/2025

  • Linked up the cookbook page that I've been working on. It has cool Javascript functionality.

  • Created the new changelog, guestbook, and 404 page.
