New routes

Ghost’s new song + video “Lachryma” is phenomenal. Their first single from Skeletá, “Satanized,” is fantastic too but this one clicked with me something fierce.

When I thought back on this post I started to wonder why I hadn’t found anything worth sharing. The first few blog posts I made since deciding to actually utilize this were sharing articles or videos of interest to me. I didn’t want to share for the sake of it – I wanted it to be worth a discussion. Worth sharing thoughts.

I realized it was because a lot of the interesting bits I’d pick up were filtered through various subreddits. The downside is curiosity gets the best of me and I make a fatal mistake: reading the comments.

It’s true that sometimes I glean some extra information from reading conversations sometimes. More often than not the same toxic behaviors found on other social media sites manifest there. That was reason enough for me to give RSS Readers another go.

I very much liked Google Reader before its untimely demise in 2013 (Thanks Google+). It was a fantastic way to keep up on many subjects and I miss that experience. So I downloaded an app, got my sites set up, and I’m going to see if I keep up with it.

How do you keep up with your interests?

About

Thanks for stopping by the Shrine. This is just a small space I’ve carved out on the net to collect everything from designs I’m working on, photos I take, or media I want to share.

You can also find me at:

neon shudder – my music, an ongoing project. mostly electronic, mostly instrumental, varying in theme and focus over the years. The name comes from the novel “Neuromancer” by William Gibson.

Phantom Port – my brand. It’s an outlet for creativity but does generally have a theme of cyberpunk and futuristic imagery. Some of it is fanart, a lot of it is original. You can also follow along on Instagram here.

My Bluesky –  Not sure how long I’ll be on here, or if I’ll even be active, but it’s better than the hellsite.
