Two koi-shaped paste-ups stuck to a graffitied concrete sidewalk, shot from above. Both fish are white with abstract patches of colour — the upper one scattered with black, yellow, red, purple and green spots and halftone dots, the lower one filled with a vertical rainbow gradient and black markings. Faded blue and red spray paint surrounds them; the toes of a pair of tan shoes show at the bottom edge. — undefined - 22 Jun, 2026 at 10:04 PM

Two painted koi on grey concrete at night, seen from above. Both have the classic white, orange and black markings of calico koi and cast soft shadows. One swims horizontally near the top, the other points downward below it. A green-painted curb and a graffitied brick wall sit along the top edge, with a light shoe at the bottom. — undefined - 23 Jun, 2026 at 7:06 PM

I built a new website, Yarrow. It pulls a three-card tarot spread every time you visit. A fun side-project built with Astro, Svelte, and Tailwind. I’ve got a bunch of ideas for it, but wanted to get a basic version out first.

Condo towers catching golden-hour light across Grenadier Pond, framed between a willow and a bare dead tree, reflections rippling on the water. — undefined - 10 Jun, 2026 at 8:33 PM

Loose pen sketch of three gnarled trees in blue ink with green scribbled foliage and red grass accents, drawn on paper balanced on a yellow book in the sun. — undefined - 10 Jun, 2026 at 7:02 PM

Grey squirrel standing upright in a grassy clearing, paws tucked to its chest, staring directly at the camera. — undefined - 10 Jun, 2026 at 6:45 PM

Sun dipping behind the treeline across Grenadier Pond, orange sky reflected in still water, reeds and driftwood silhouetted along the shore. — undefined - 10 Jun, 2026 at 8:36 PM

Neocities Deploy from GitHub Actions

A CI workflow to lint and build, a CD workflow to deploy to Neocities, and a brief defense of why I build the site twice.

Cloudless blue sky over a leafy residential Toronto street, sky filling most of the frame. Green trees line both sides; a gabled wood-and-shingle house with a second-floor balcony anchors the right, a pale apartment block sits behind trees on the left. Utility lines cross the middle. At the curb, a red STOP sign below a yellow ENDS sign. A faint daytime moon hangs at upper left. — Blue Sky

A raccoon crosses a floodlit lawn at the foot of a large tree at night, the lit windows of Queen's Park behind it. A '10' is painted on the road in the foreground. — Raccoon

Love this poem I found:

They/Them
(dedicated to Nex Benedict)

If God created night & day
& dawn, of course
& dusk
& the tangerine rosepink sunset
& the deep amethyst twilight
& the infact bright of morning

the to perceive the world in binary is to forgo knowledge of the divine.
