Introducing “shorts” for Henry (my Hugo blog engine/theme).

Often, I find myself wanting to post a quick thought or note without the ceremony of a full-blown “blog post”. That’s usually when I’d post to Bluesky, X, Threads, or Mastodon.

But as I’ve said before, I prefer investing in a feed I control. With Henry, I can effortlessly post a quick thought, and share it from a feed I own.

Powering your Hugo blog with Bluesky Comments - invest in a feed you control

I'm powering my Hugo blog theme Henry with Bluesky comments. It's a great way to invest in a social-media feed that you control and is open source. I like my current implementation and it's open for others to use.

Kindness and Positivity

We need more kindness and positivity in our online lives today. There is no side, that cannot benefit from that.

Being rational or correct is futile without empathy.

You can have opposing (or even incorrect) views but you have to find a kind and positive way to express that.

You either learn you’re wrong or convince the other of your point of view. But everyone is more willing to have the conversation, if approached with kindness and positivity.

on the new Twitter logo

Twitter’s got a new logo. It’s clean and simple. But here’s a more astute observation from underconsideration.com :

For the most part, all the news sources reporting on the revised bird have focused on its visual update, which I will get to soon, but the real story here is that Twitter has dropped its name from the logo. If you look at the opening image of this post, the change is quite drastic. And ballsy. Twitter has achieved in less than six years what Nike, Apple, and Target took decades to do: To be recognizable without a name, just an icon.
