Of all the versions of me out there, this is probably the closest to what I am like IRL (sharing interesting and benign observations on my surroundings and random things about my day, enjoying the small/slow interwebs, a little weird, not too serious, and enjoying connecting with fellow internet explorers)

Dispatches from an in-progress attempt to get unstuck

Hello and welcome to the latest chapter of my midlife crisis, where I’ve done something somewhat impulsive, which is to sign a commercial lease on a (very modest) studio space in Brooklyn. I have felt creatively stuck for a while, and also just generally disconnected and ungrounded from the immediate physical world around me. So I’m hoping that having a dedicated space to make stuff will encourage me to get myself unstuck. (Also paying a monthly subscription fee a.k.a. rent to another landlord in order to hold myself accountable to fixing my own creative constipation better be enough of a fire to get me moving and stop feeling sorry for myself.)

U guys are so nice, I shared my pictures with a joke and movie reference to obscure my bashfulness and u responded so earnestly 😭

(Don’t worry I also have gochujang)
Harissa is just Tunisian gochujang (I’ve been putting it on my eggs lately - no complaints, would recommend)
first studio project: I built a raspberry pi writer deck. no more excuses for procrastinating on writing my book 😅
https://kwon.photos/homestead-food-prep/ mentally i'm still in the mountains... i made a gallery of food prep pics from my month upstate. also finally added alt text and captions functionality, and vibe-coded this UI that i can run on localhost to edit gallery info so i don't have to manually edit jsons. photos edited using @aphera !
I have realized that being middle aged doesn’t mean abstaining from flamin hot cheetos but it does mean using chopsticks (to avoid cheeto fingers of course)

hot take: i don’t like being served food at a movie theatre.

it is both a suboptimal dining experience and a suboptimal movie-watching experience.
