Spangleyed

I’ve been waiting a long time to do this. And there’s been no reason at all why I should not have done it sooner.

I have started to write at Spangleyed many times for a very long time, but it’s never stuck. This time I’m hoping it’s going to be different.

I want to write only about the things I’m interested in – that would be music, films, TV, games, football… nothing revolutionary there. I might write a bit about, you know, “the state of things”. But at the moment I’d rather forget about that and let other people do their thing in that direction.

I will also post the photos and music I make myself.

I’m not doing this for anyone else, though. My expectations that anyone might read any of this is more or less zero – I expect someone might stumble upon it purely by accident. But I’m taken by the idea that we should probably all have a space online that isn’t owned or controlled by someone else. And that if you’ve got something to say you should say it.

I’m on one social network – Bluesky, and will send anything out I write – or otherwise make – on there. I will also federate the whole thing via WordPress so that it exists in that world directly.

So here I am. Let’s get started. Hello world. More follows.
