November 2025 monthlog
For all my trash talking November it's actually not been that bad. Been doing lots of fun creative things.
Updates here
- 18 posts
- did a fun sort-of themed week on creativity and curiosity
- wrote for two blog carnivals: An inventory of my loot and cycles and fluctuations
- added an almanac page for seasonal things
- been fiddling with links. I wanted a little icon to show where they are going, especially if they are going somewhere people might not want to go like youtube and it seems to be mostly working?
- used Mighil's monthly posts layout and Sylvia's titles then dates to make a posts page so much more like I want
- Also just generally inspired by Anarchae, ReedyBear, and Robert Birming with all their themes, plugins, and customisations
- added a colophon page for more on the above
- temporarily broke everything while I got my email set up
Progresses elsewhere
- lots of creativity this month! Finished three zines. Did not finish chapter but genuinely made massive progress. Worked on an 80s high school themed oneshot my wife ran in London, which was fun
- having to go on my domain registrar a lot while sorting email and breaking the site exposed me to too much temptation and I bought several new domain names I don't need
- I'm making one into a URL shortener. Don't ask me why, I don't know why
- did a 1500-piece jigsaw puzzle lent by a friend who had given up on it
- went to a fireworks display, the print workshop fair, a new pizza place, a new Thai place, the woods a few times, litter picking with the niblings, to see Wicked
Favourites this month
Hardly watched anything this month and I'm currently reading nine different books. I should probably finish them.
It's Spotify Wrapped time soon! I love my Spotify Wrapped. A lot of great new music this month.
