right on time depending on which part of the world (in my country the high school and uni graduations tend to range from mid to midlate june lmao, the uni i dropped out of years ago had theirs up to yesterday) - big ups truly to everyone who graduated something. big ups still to those who weren't able to

I like the newspaper on the main page so I'm not going to get rid of that! but I sort of want to go back to some of the original ideas that I had for this website. it was fun to have an expanding site that had a bunch of useless information on it. (:

also, space layout 🌌🌠🧑‍🚀

One of my presentations at work got some attention and then I shared it with a super high level person and made a recording and I feel very vulnerable and seen and like they're definitely going to find out it's all BS... Even though it definitely isn't. I researched that shit forever

well not forever but a couple weeks and that's really the longest I've ever done for a presentation that was supposed to be for a group of 15 people and never seen again. I'm proud but also hate this feeling

I got a lot of compliments on it. so I opened some minds and that's really cool. but my brain still does punishment

I find pros and cons with it. Sometimes sites will update like a dozen pages all at once (guilty as charged), and then it becomes really overwhelming. But under the majority of circumstances, I feel I click on more pages then before because I can see all of the pages someone updated rather then just the featured one.

I've sort of already trained myself to stop looking at sites when they become overwhelming. I mean it was one of the ways that I stopped using social media. unfortunately I'm not interested in going back 🥲 hopefully we'll get the option of themes or something. a lot of the problem I have with it is the colors chosen.

interesting? Do you have any thoughts on colors you would have chosen instead or what changes you would make?

I don't know what colors I would have chosen but I have been thinking about it the last few days, and I think my problem with it is the color contrast, but how widely they contrast. The red borders around profile pages when you update your site draws your eyes, but then the low contrast behind comments is weird. I think I would bind full comment threads, not just the replies.

also the colors don't really mesh very well with the heading colors. overall I feel like my eyes are just darting back and forth trying to figure out what to focus on, so it doesn't feel like I'm fluidly reading comment to comment, update to update, etc. it's just too much effort to look at the site now.
