So remember when I said a few months ago that I was staying put? Yeah, not so much.
As it turns out, I already had at my disposal a blogging platform that fit all the needs I was looking for—micro posts easily mixed with longer blog posts—and that I was already paying for: Micro.blog. I was one of the Kickstarter backers of Manton Reece’s project back in 2017, and have been pretty much cross-posting my social media (mainly Twitter) musings to it ever since it launched. When my Kickstarter-reward plan expired, it was a no-brainer for me to keep my subscription going. The platform has steadily improved, and for where I am in my blogging life right now, it checks all the boxes I need it to.
So if you only follow me here, you need to point your browser or RSS reader to Retrophisch.net. And thanks for sticking around here all these years!

As someone who once upon a time cross-stitched, I’m impressed with that flaming cityscape.

Also, the stacking of the fee is ridiculous. It’s not preventing future events, and it’s not as though that money is going towards preventing it from ever happening again.
#LSU fined $250,000 by the SEC for fans storming the field after its win against top-10 Ole Miss. LSU was last fined for a violation following its football game against Georgia in 2018.

LSU should storm the field every single time it beats Ole Miss, even if Ole Miss isn’t undefeated. Because it’s Ole Miss.
