<p>I moved domains, again.</p>
<p>This blog started on bearblog.dev as cassie.land. Bearblog is a great platform, but I <a href="https://cassie.ink/what%27s-this-%28and-how-it-works%29/">wanted a challenge in my life</a>, I guess, so I taught myself to use Hugo and moved to esotericbullshit.net (cassie.land was repurposed for my NAS). I love the esotericbullshit moniker and URL — it makes me laugh — but as it turns out, it&rsquo;s kind of hard to share your link when it contains profanity.<sup id="fnref:1"><a href="#fn:1" class="footnote-ref" role="doc-noteref">1</a></sup> Perhaps that&rsquo;s copium for a growing domain purchasing addiction, but I intend to make this one stick.</p>
<p>I have a long history with blogging. I posted on livejournal from 2007-2012 several times a week, with mundane accounts of my day and fragile mental state<sup id="fnref:2"><a href="#fn:2" class="footnote-ref" role="doc-noteref">2</a></sup>. In 2013, I moved to a private Dreamwidth blog, and then to a WordPress blog in 2014. Each time I moved, I had the compulsion to backport all of my old writing, but I liked the idea of a fresh start — and I felt each time that I was a new, improved version of me with a distinct voice.</p>
<p>But as I plumb through my livejournal archive, I&rsquo;ve realized: wherever I go, I&rsquo;m still myself. And that&rsquo;s the impetus behind <strong>cassie.ink</strong>: no bullshit, no hiding. It&rsquo;s me and my name, and if I get sick of that, we have bigger problems.</p>
<p>I don&rsquo;t know that I have the bravery to bring over <em>all</em> of that old content, but perhaps <em>some</em> of it. I&rsquo;m not sure what that will look like. I admire, for example, Jedda, whose <a href="https://notes.jeddacp.com/archive/?q=flashbackFriday">flashbackFriday series</a> unearths her teenage livejournal entries. Maybe the elegant solution is to backport some of the content with a warning that it&rsquo;s old and I&rsquo;m smarter and wiser and less fucking annoying now?<sup id="fnref:3"><a href="#fn:3" class="footnote-ref" role="doc-noteref">3</a></sup> Import the old content but make it difficult (impossible) to access unless I link to it somewhere else? That&rsquo;s all for me to figure out.</p>
<p>For now — here I am, again, committing to blog, again.<sup id="fnref:4"><a href="#fn:4" class="footnote-ref" role="doc-noteref">4</a></sup></p>
