I think a year ago I had the exact same idea I did now, which is to start work on this site again by making a blogpost. Time didn't fly, I was pretty aware of my lack of effort the entire year (trying to write a static site generator was so stupid). It's been a slow couple days and some friends showed me progress on their sites so I thought it was good to try again. I tried to go through and update things and begin work again but just found myself confused. Not only did the webamp plugin break, but I also have no clue what I was trying to do. My friend who's more experienced than me had talked about redoing their entire site plenty of times, and it's something I've seen frequently mentioned by others here so I said why not. I think if I just keep it plain text for the moment and get in the proper infrastructure before doing all the fancy stuff it'll be way better for my motivation. I was way too ambitious earlier. I'm reminded of the time when I was first working on this and I got followed by some site that was like, "site of the week" or something. It had these rules about needing the site to have more than just links to your other shit etc. Turns out, that's all my site ended up being! Felt kinda funny and bad to have that be the case. Unsurpisingly I got unfollowed quickly, hopefully this time I can have more going on. By the time this is visible I'm sure there will already be another blogpost or a week has passed, but that's fine.
