Surprise, another blog post. In which I talk about moving my blog content to Mataroa, why I chose Mataroa over other minimalist blogging platforms, and the changes going forward in my blogging content and website use (spoilers: not much is changing!)

While I'm not quite ready to get rid of my site on glitch.com, I am moving my blog posts to mataroa coventine.mataroa.blog!

Nowadays there are many blogging platforms to choose from, but mataroa best suited my needs. No themes to fiddle with and no CMS, I can just focus on writing.

Love this quote from study co-author @mjcrockett.bsky.social:
If that’s true, it suggests fact-checks or reminders to users to consider accuracy before sharing may not be effective in curbing viral rumors or hoaxes that play on people’s moral indignation. Crockett pointed to the example of JD Vance continuing to spread unsubstantiated rumors about Haitian migrants eating pets in Springfield, Ohio, even after he acknowledged they might be false. The conservative pundit Ben Shapiro popularized the phrase “facts don’t care about your feelings.” Crockett said her team’s findings suggest the converse. “In this information environment, your feelings don’t care about facts,” she said.
