Profile

Updated August 3, 2025.

I'm a queer person in their thirties (they/them) and am currently semi-successfully studying mathematics after getting stuck in medical school for [redacted] years. In general, I'm interested in making things myself, from designing my own planners and knitting patterns to actually making those planners and knitted clothes. I also dabble in Emacs, in the sense that mess with the init.el file when I need to add a functionality once in a blue moon. Finally, one of my biggest interests is language learning and I speak several to varying degrees of fluency.

I post every week if I can. Currently, I'm alternating between posting reading updates and a sort of snapshot of what's been up using a post format that Michelle Elman came up with for her Substack. I also very occasionally post other stuff. Currently, only posts that are at most 1 year old are available publicly, the rest are only available to my access list. Sometimes certain posts will only be available publicly for a week or so, and then locked.

I've been participating in GYWO since 2020.

The layout london fog that I'm using has been developed by girlrock. I added some code to add a dark theme (switches according to system preferences) and to style elements that I use a lot when making posts (and ::selection, very important).
