Collected notes, posts, thoughts, in a more digital garden-ish style. (Playing with a cabinet of curiosities style, have a look and let me know what you think!)
Two very broad themes are Creativity and curiosity and Trying new things and doing more stuff. I will probably add community, or something along those lines.
I'm working on a Literature curriculum 'great books' style. There are also notes on Reading more generally, Quotes, and a collection of Curricula. History and heritage is a big interest, along with Scenes - literary, artistic, philosophical, scientific groups, clubs, salons, what have you.
The Almanac collects seasonal bookmarks, posts, and thoughts. My favourite Wikipedia articles are in The Wikipedia. Listening (to music) and Games is shaping up covering board games and TTRPGs. Other favourite things: These are a few of my favourite things.
Interests not so much covered elsewhere and links to where they are. I have a Calendar of Fun Web Things and pages on Time travel, The Old Web, and It's the stars.
General tags on posts:
- monthlogs (monthly overviews)
- conversations with my niblings
- posts with lots of links
- posts written to prompts such as blog carnivals and trades

Colophon
Notes about the site itself, also more in-depth colophon. I'm tinkering with the site. So sometimes it will look a bit odd. There are all sorts of changes I'd like to make structurally and aesthetically and I'm evolving it slowly. I have a little style guide and all Oxford comma discourse can be directed there.
