It took a couple of days of downtime to get into the flow of spending a bit of time blogging again. Sure you might have guessed, I spent some time thinking about buying a new System76 laptop. Outside of that the good old Pixelbook Go chromebook is still running and the battery oddly still has decent longevity. That Pixelbook was ordered back in October of 2019. As the social web continues to fall apart. No real RSS feed solutions are popping up to jump in and make it all work again. I continue to write, blog, and otherwise create blocks of prose on a weekly schedule. This bit of Independence Day blogging is both independently written and independent in spirit. Fun times abound for those who still want to create and build content.
