A collection of notes and ramblings, ordered in reverse chronological order.
2026-01-11 new year in full motion
I am pleased with myself to have gotten my act together and finally have this blog set up. I played around a bit with other platforms (Pika, i.e which is honestly great and I wish them all the best) but eventually came back to have this compiled with Quartz and deployed using GitHub Actions. I felt that it is more aligned with the principles I cared about, so I am glad that this site is in a somewhat good shape for now.
I am focusing this year on various small adjustments to my physical (working out more regularly) and mental well-being (setting boundaries and saying no). Looking forward to exploring these areas even further.
For my love for movies, I want to watch every winner of the Cannes Palme d’Or. There were a few that I have already watched, but it’s still a lot of work. I am looking forward to this though.
- Watched Rome, Open City, Brief Encounter, One Battle After Another, Sinners, and Marty Supreme.
- Finished Flesh by David Szalay and started with The Pacific Circuit.
- Listened to the vinyl of Pisces Iscariot by the Smashing Pumpkins on repeat.
- I have enjoyed these posts recently:
- Hi, It’s Me, Wikipedia, and I Am Ready for Your Apology
- The Case Against Generative AI - a brutal yet honest piece of a tech bubble that will inevitably burst.
