notes

I finally managed to add page views to Bar Total! ٩(^‿^)۶ Thanks to a post by Kanani Nirav it was very easy to add using Netlify’s blobs. I am continually amazed how much fun stuff I get there for free, to bury myself deeper in lock in 🔒 – but hey! It’s only for funsies :)

Now go read my post about being a vampire (it’s in Swedish but you have some built in translator in ur browser right?) and pump that view counter! (っ´ω`c)♡

Currently experiencing habituation to the ”drumbeat of news about various overwhelming environmental and societal problems”.

However, some hope of turning this habituation into action was instilled in me from learning about the Psychological Flexibility Model of ACT.

Updated the site root (/) to better align with my purpose for the site – to be a highly personal creative outlet – and a real home for the online me! 🏕️ I’ve tried to strike a balance between whimsical and minimalistic. Hopefully the new design will also spark・ﾟ✧ more interest and draw unsuspecting new visitors deeper into my web… 🕸️

This week I’m curating the playlist @ Bar Total. Check out the announcement (in Swedish). I’ve also updated the site design😎

the internet is like the global scale equivalent of the monkey mind.

just plain old text is just not my medium # ignore translations: ただの古いテキストは私の媒体ではありません केवलं साधारणः पुरातनः पाठः केवलं मम माध्यमः नास्ति വെറും പഴയ വാചകം എൻ്റെ മാധ്യമമല്ല жай ғана ескі мәтін менің ортам емес مجرد نص قديم عادي ليس وسيلة لي

Not only to shroud myself in mystery— But because gneder is just frickenv and identity especially on the internet is so fluid, I will henceforth use more anonymbivolous & fun pronouns like ze, sie, ve/hir, em, ver/vis, hirs etc. when referring to yours truly here. You can call still me whatever, peace ✌️

Slightly updated my web scraping methods for randomantagning.se. Chromedriver-autoinstaller finally let me run the scraper script without having to download a new driver for Chrome every time. I am now saving to JSON files and importing them with webpack instead of writing to a text file and copy the contents into a massive array in my Javascript (which webpack now does for me). The scraper can now be run with command line arguments of which semesters to download.

I have also switched hosting from Neocities to Netlify (same as this site) because it’s free, even though supporting neocities was nice.

Next step is importing the JSON data more dynamically/lazily to avoid the slow page load.

Eat the rich

”It’s more sustainable, creates more food, is significantly healthier (it makes vegetables and fruits) and just overall less gross to compost the rich. Added benefit is that compost sequesters carbon, feeds nutrients back to the soil and helps rebuild healthy O/A top layers to eroded soil so it literally immediately starts correcting one of the wrongs of capitalist ecological rape”
