Blaugust 2025

Despite that I can barely keep myself motivated to post even weekly, I went ahead end signed up again for Blaugust. I did it the first year on [BloggingIntensifies] and last year on Lameazoid, and now they are one blog, so technically I did it twice here, and this will be my third year. I'm not going in with any plans. I may post once per week. Even doing some of the suggested topics feels a little cheesy because I've already done the basic "Who am I, what is Blaugust," etc topics two years now. Maybe it could motivate me…

Everything I Write About, All At Once

I feel like a broken record sometimes, but for a while now, I have been pretty heavily organization my digital stuff. It's always been "pretty organized", but I've gotten a bit lax with like, temporary dumps, and changing gears halfway and not quite committing. My latest commitment has been to Joplin. I've got... basically all of my writing, over decades, in Joplin now. I have also gone through and added tags to everything. Simple tags, which was the point, but tags. There is a bit missing. I have a handful of documents, primarily old school documents, that just, lend themselves…

What I set out to do, was to build an automation tool for posting to social media. I will probably work on making some better input tools, but for now, it works fine for posting, and could…

Porting Playlists With Python

I had a brief sting last year where I was using Spotify, but I dumped it, mostly for financial reasons, but also because as much as I like the ability to just, listen to whatever, I kind of dislike the whole "Music as a service" aspect. I can still find new stuff via Youtube and then add it to my list of "Albums to maybe buy eventually". One thing I lost though was my Playlists. I was worried they were just gone, soon after logging in, I swear they hd just vanished, but checking now, they seem to all be…

LinkedIn Daily Games

A lot of people like to play brain games, and while Crosswords have been popular for a while, Wordle really popularized the whole "Once Daily" craze for online games a few years ago. I have done Wordle, and a ton of variations on Wordle. I did Sudoku for a while. I was even doing Crosswords for a bit. Currently, my go to is the daily LinkedIn Games. They are in the app, they may be on the web too, I don't know, I don't look at the website. Hell, I don't even really look at the app except to play…
