about

Howdy. My name is Joe.

I exist in multitudes. Specifically two-tudes. There is me IRL and me URL.
This website exists for me URL (said with a pirate's inflection).

My real name is Joe, but when I am online, I go by CGI Joe, or CG, or Siege. You can me whatever you want as long as you call.

There's a big messy digital trail out there that I am trying to do something about, so I am calling this place home for now. Mi casa es tu casa.

My Approach to the Internet

I am trying a different approach to social media these days. I feel like it's going to get lumped into a "slow internet" movement. Something similar to the slow-food movement. I am talking farm-to-table internet content. Straight from the dome to code with no Zuck or Musk interference. At least directly. I recommend using Firefox, for what it's worth.

I realize this is still hosted through neocities, and I have not done the research to know where there hosting is, so maybe it's all moot. I don't know. It seems like decent folks are using this platform and I guess seeing like minded folks is enough of a reason to justify just about anything these days. Maybe that's human. Regardless - I am trying to find a way to have a digital place to be outside of the platforms. You can look into the digital garden sites out there - I am not sure how this will fit into that paradigm.

I am going to keep with this cozy spaceship aesthetic. I will address the generative AI image as the iteration no. 1 background. Eventually we'll get there.
