you've made port
always drifting, never adriftwelcome, you've stumbled upon a corner of the internet — my digital garden, a kind of virtual abode. it's a living archive, always under construction, slowly growing as i plant new seeds and tend to older ones. over time, it may become a garden worth wandering through.
the index is a collapsible overview of the page and a way to jump between sections or sub-sections. you'll mostly see this in articles with headings, so you can navigate with ease.

how i write
if you don't see anything weird — perfect. if you do, i hope you get used to it. writing this way helps me be more honest and express my thoughts more clearly. like chatting with a good friend — we just type whatever's on our mind, no need to dress it up. i case the words where it matters and aids readability. the rest is written as freely as i think it, as i try to make sense of things and articulate myself.
policies, stances, and other small-but-important details live in the fine print.
/atelier
the structured map of my digital garden, where ideas are materialized. each entry reflects not just the result, but also the thought process and lessons behind building it.
/curated
content that holds up, no matter when it's read. things i found meaningful enough to wish i'd seen sooner.
harvest
the harvest series is a snapshot of things that stood out to me each month. it's a way for me to reflect on the past month and record what i've learned and experienced from the passing time.
/posts
blog entries for unfiltered moments. sometimes technical, sometimes personal, and often times just wandering.
/reviews
my favorite index. reviews are where i express myself most freely, this is where i reflect and appreciate the stories and experiences i got.
most entries come with a /deep-dive sub-page: a space for nuanced analysis or spotlighting the moments that i want to capture. some are made to start conversation, others just to get the thoughts out.
how i review
i believe stories are best experienced blind. that's why i avoid summaries, spoilers, or even specifics. the goal is to preserve the surprise and emotional weight, so you (or future me) can meet the story with the same excitement i had. i've always enjoyed stories more when i knew nothing going in.
for anime, i usually give it three or four episodes before deciding to continue or dropping it — just enough to vibe check it. if you prefer knowing the premise first, i've linked sources like MyAnimeList, TMDB, IMDb, and other related links on each review.
if you've gone through the whole thing or don't mind dissecting all the key points, check the /deep-dive sub-page. that's where i unpack the story and reflect more freely.
attributions
most images are sourced from TMDB, used under their attribution terms. i'm not affiliated — they're just excellent and easy to use. all reviews are mine; if you have concerns, feel free to reach out.
other pages
not the main plots, but corners of the garden that give it shape.
/about
a minimal intro to who i am, what i do, and where to find me — including some things you probably didn't ask for. the /now section is here too.
/uses
a snapshot of my setup — hardware, apps, and wellness picks that support my day-to-day. also serves as a reference for myself, a benchmark for what works and what lasts.
/rss.xml
if you're one of the cool kids with your own curated feeds, there's the rss icon in the footer to subscribe and get updates as soon as they're live.
/sponsor
a redirect to my GitHub Sponsors page. support is welcome — financially, or simply by engaging, giving feedback, or sharing my work.
