Neocities does not use FTP (at least, not in the classic sense), and instead uses a series of apis and libraries to upload files. I wasn't very happy with what was out there, so I made a light-weight-ish script to do this for me. Using Vuepress accelerated the need, as the dist folder that the build process spits out requires I have an automated way to shunt all these files online.

The following is a brief summation of the most basic Sourdough recipe I know. It is adapted from the New York Times recipe and makes two loaves. Spoiler: It's 70% hydration with 20% starter.

Day 1: Feed your starter, so that you have at least 200g of substance. Leave it in a warm place overnight.

Jack of all trades, master of some. I've been on this god-forsaken earth for just over 30 years and these skills are begging to be applied to something, anything. And so, this site is a place where I can ruminate on the things I do when I'm not doing them.

Call me Mr. Black. With minimal sleuthing you can find my first name is Westin, but I don't respond to that in this context. The original mission of keeping a minimal footprint on the web is a success, but now I leave no shadow. So consider this website that shadow, a small footnote of a footnote that I existed once. I will post about things I find interesting, and there are a lot of those things. I work with computers by trade, do art of all kinds as a human, and was aiming to be a video game maker at one point. I write stories, make comics, sometimes zines and costumes, and other unsavory things.
