oh out of boredom yesterday i made my blog available via markdown files too so you can use charmbracelet/glow to read them in your terminal :)

basically i just set up a file directory on a path of my blog, organized the MD files by year, and so in theory you can navigate to that path and choose a folder, then copy a link to a markdown post and run this:

glow -p https://bubblegum.girlonthemoon.xyz/md/2025/2025-03-31%20premature%20reflections%20on%20sudden%20responsibility.md

and then as long as you have glow installed, you can read my posts from the terminal :D it's so cool

guys omg the people behind pico.sh are so nice ;_; one of the people running it emailed me to let me know i had what was likely a malfunctioning (or well, not working as intended) script that was spawning the same SSH tunnel over and over and they wanted to give me a heads up.

and i felt SO BAD because i worried i was straining their service or something so i disabled my 4 tunnels (they were serving little SSH games and services) and got back to them.

but i just woke up to THE NICEST EMAIL EVER reassuring me that i was actually using it as intended, it was just my script that was having problems, and they even said that if it was intended to work that way it was fine and they just wanted to let me know!

so i restarted the tunnels but have since added lockfiles as safeguards so that when the script is run it'll check if it's already running :D

hello friends i spent a couple hours today using a random string generator by charm CLI called hotdiva2000 to make a script that 1) generates a static index.html page 2) the page is a prompt generator where all the prompts are from hotdiva2000!!!!!

this makes more sense if you look at it check it out

i really wanna learn golang it looks fun and capable and i can read it kind of but every time i try it i'm immediately stuck on basic concepts like "what the fuck is a pointer" (this has been explained to me and i still don't get it). i did have types explained to me as like notes on code which makes sense a bit but i'm mostly lost on basic code concepts

anyway re: girl doxxing for wonyoung. this is real wonyoungism. i can only dream of being that iconic. for context wonyoung gets so much hate and she is literally my age and has been doing this idol shit since she was 13 and has gotten called all sorts of horrible things since then because people are jealous of her. so imo doxxing in her name is OK and justified i DON'T CARE there are youtubers in south korea who have made a career out of hating on her and are now getting sued by her for defamation

wahhh i wanna work towards my dream of offering pay as you can web hosting (static & dynamic) but i don't know how!!!!! i keep drifting towards hosting panels but i don't exactly have fresh linux servers for those nor do i like the level of access they require. so i'm like ok i can do the static site part with SFTP chroot jails and a front-end like filebrowser or something.... but then what about the dynamic sites!!!!!!! UGH

granted i doubt i'd get much interest in dynamic sites but i'd like to do this old school where i can offer people isolated mySQL databases or something for some project (i'm thinking PHP based fanlistings), which means i could do it the old school way of... people ask me to run it and i do it for them. but i kind of want to let people have access to be able to do it themselves just short of giving them SSH access which isn't happening
