Hello! You’ve somehow found my digital shoebox—the home of my [[English language#omnium-gatherum|omnium-gatherum]] of notes, quotes, and miscellaneous research… which is currently a bit of a blend between ‘internet bookmark collection’ and ‘[[commonplace books|commonplace book]]’. And very much driven by my regularly shifting hyperfixation-of-the-week. Everything has been gathered specifically for research/education purposes. Who knows whether this specific blend of eclectic weirdness will resonate with anyone else! Have fun if you do choose to stick around and poke about. :) --- > [!attention]- Your Mileage May Vary: A general disclaimer > > - Things you are likely to encounter while perusing these notes: typos, bias, mistakes, and out-of-date information. > > + While I do not believe anything here deserves a strict 18+ age rating, some topics are, by their very nature, [[NSFW]].
