I could say “oh my god! It’s been like a year since I posted!” But that would sound like it’s a surprise and... it’s not. Yesterday I went for a walk and it felt like the first time in ages that I was taking a walk because I really wanted to, and not while thinking “you must move around or you will die.” My brain has really been sputtering out for a while as I’ve used various means to keep it afloat; my motivation to do anything but snuggle my wife and use minimal brain activity to play The Sims has been, well, pretty lagging.

But now the situation is going to be different for a while, anyway.

( Work stuff, basically )

Anyway, this all means I will be having a lot more free time to do some long form blogging again. And…. I really hope that ends up being more than just Star Wars hot takes. Like not no Star Wars hot takes but also. LITERALLY anything else. Lukewarm takes. But with twitter imploding it’s a reminder that I really like long-form blogging and have trouble… not doing that, and that this is really the only kind of medium I like doing it in, with a pretty simple layout and comment threads rather than reblogs. Not that it necessarily matters, but even similar (...... more old fashioned? yeesh) long form platforms don’t have the kind of clear comment layout that livejournal clones do, what’s with that?

So I will try to make it. Less than a year this time. Less than a month! We’ll see.
