post Back to the Facepile, Featherweight Edition
A short three years ago, I wrote about The Crushing Weight of the Facepile: how the image weight of the webmention avatar images were proving to be prohibitvely large.At that time, I decided the best solution was to lazy load all of the Webmention Avatars. I used …

post On Bari Weiss and COVID-19
It’s been a long time since I’ve blogged, but I’m on my first long break in many years and dying to be away from social media so I’m trying this to see how things go. Who knows, maybe I’ll start a newsletter.

post from The deep, dark wrongness
I was always a pretty good kid: good-natured, good in school, imaginative, and curious. I’d get up early every day to draw comic books before school; during the breaks between lessons on the school playground, I’d pretend I was putting on plays for astronauts. Afterwards, I’d …

post CSS-only External Link Favicons
Saw a fascinating idea in a tweet from @simevidas to show favicons on external links on a site. Full credit for the original idea to Kiko Beats.The implementation used an icon font to store the favicons. I think we can improve on this idea (do y’all want to maintain an icon font …

post from Settling
Something I’ve learned over the last decade is that I have a very different relationship to place than many - perhaps even most - people.I come by it honestly. In my nuclear family growing up, each of us had a slightly different accent, shaped by our respective journeys. My dad’s …
