#Mayllennial – Digital Pets

Day two of this month long writing challenge, how long shall I last?! Actually, this one could maybe be short. Because its "Digital Pets.". I was never really into Digital Pets, I guess? I had a Digimon Digivice, but I don't think I ever had a real Tamagotchi. On the other hand, I was into Pokemon. Like, a lot. In yesterday's "90s websites" post, I mentioned The Chaos Xone. My other website baby at the time was The Geocities Sailor Moon Fanpage Center. I mean, The Geocities Pokemon Center. Like, I liked Pokemon enough that I created my second website…

#Mayllennial – 90’s Websites

Today's topic, 90s Websites. I can, definitely attest to this one, I spent a lot of the 90s online. Hell, I have spent a lot of my life online. But I also ran some 90s websites. Back before wordpress and social media and micro-posting. There was not even a place to share. We didn't even really have RSS to keep up on things. I feel like I have mentioned it before, but this site started out as a 90s site on Geocities called The Chaos Xone. Because in the 90s, X was Xool like that. It's a versatile letter, it…

Get ready for a month of daily posts! Seriously, I have already written all most some of them. I came across this random Bluesky Skeet that was reposted by someone I follow. All of the topics seemed pretty doable and maybe interesting. Also, depending on how you slice it, I am technically on the bleeding front edge of Millennial. I certainly sympathize a lot more with Millennials I think, though I also don't really subscribe to the while Boomer Gen X Gen Y, Gen Z nonsense. I was also at the moment in a very weird funk of really kind…
Fixing my Chevy Sonic Climate Controls

Fixing my Chevy Sonic Climate Controls

I had a little unexpected project recently with my car. And one that went better than fixing the window, which just failed and resulted in a returned part and a window that no longer functions. I was adjusting the blower setting on the air conditioner and there was a stiff turn before it just, stopped working. The knob still turned but the blower was stuck on "blow out the main vents." I would have been less worried if it were any season except winter, but its winter, so eventually, I will need the defroster. After checking online to confirm that…
Sharing Workflow

Sharing Workflow

So, I wrote this, or at least, something like this, then sat on it for months, and now its out of date. Its GROTESQUELY out of date. The new/current system is way better thanks to this thing I had AI build. Its also a process that has sort of, evolved over time. It was a digest that posted daily on its own, but I didn't always share stuff, so it because one I shared randomly, then weekly, manually. Then it was attached to my weekly write ups. I may still use the wrap up, but now.it just shares. And it…
