Here I go (again)

Hello.

It has been a very, very, very long time.

I don't really have a reason for why my blogging took such a big hiatus but I think it had to do with me coming to terms with the internet itself changing. It's been such a weird place for me in the last few years with micro-blogging platforms and social media becoming the forefront of the personal identity. Name one platform and I've probably used it (well, except for maybe TikTok) over the years, all in the attempt to make some sense of the rapidly changing world of over-sharing and visual stimulation.

I got tired. I got tired of blogging quickly. I got tired of filtering through the immense garbage that was coming to the front of social media. My body and my mind just got exhausted from it all. It got exhausting and eventually, it wasn't fun anymore.

But I really missed writing. Not to you, the reader, but instead to nobody in particular. I miss just putting my thoughts down in a public place with no real intention of anybody reading it. I have this wild dream that one day, if all things are paid correctly forever and ever, that somebody will come across this site and discover all the great things I did (just a few years later). It's the old "StumbleUpon" feeling.

So here I go (again). Hello.
