Notes, oddities, and small reports from the quieter end of the web.
Beep
This is a small personal site for things that do not need a platform, a feed, or a performance review. It is mostly a place for short observations, minor projects, and the occasional dispatch from wherever my attention wandered and found something faintly ridiculous.
At the moment, that includes:
-
a field guide to pigeons with more confidence than restraint
-
a short Angband report from a kobold rogue having a poor evening
-
the source itself on Repositories
On Pigeons
The field guide is exactly what it sounds like: a brief taxonomy of urban bird swagger. It treats the subject with more seriousness than the subject deserves, which is to say the correct amount.
On Dungeons
The Angband Dispatch follows Morwe, a kobold rogue currently on the first dungeon level, confused, lightly injured, and in sight of more dogs than any sensible creature should tolerate at once. He is learning, very quickly, that early dungeon confidence is often just optimism wearing a helmet.
Source Code
The site is built in plain AsciiDoc and lives in the beepweb repository on
Repositories, along with a few other small
projects under this subdomain. The machinery is simple, which leaves more room
for the important work of writing about pigeons as if they hold office.
Thanks for visiting. Please keep your snacks out of sight.
