That's because it's almost always a poor retelling.
When someone talks about their dreams, they're biased; to them, it's already profound. But to you, it sounds like a disconnected infodump because, well, it usually is.
I was in an apocalypse, then met Stu, he's 6 foot 4 and had 730 quadrillion molecules in his body, then Gandhi sold me to Justin Trudeau. Woke up in a cold sweat. (add 200 words of filler)
Is this a testament to the importance of writing skill, or insurmountable bias? I suppose a hobbyist writer would have a better chance at keeping one compelled.
Here's my favorite example of better dream storytelling: tumblr
I always enjoy looking into what other people are doing with their smaller (but 100+ views) websites, thanks for posting.
Usually "this is a good website" websites are pretty text-heavy with the occasional picture. These sites only need HTML anyway and frequently say "you only need HTML anyway".Although the linked webpage -- a debatable list of opinions (e.g. Cloudflare privacy is hotly contested by people with at least as much credibility as the author) -- is an example of this, I was pleasantly surprised by the national grid map under /data and the use of math rendering, which at least surpass the complexity of writing a HTML 1.1 compliant site.
The use of CC0 is a variable choice -- some want their work to be more forcibly public, but I guess I see her viewpoint.
As for her gripe on the opacity of code minification, I can't say I understand that. Just make your site source code open and obvious to remake, as she did with grid. It's the same result, but with the added benefit of less JS bytes for when you do do something more complex.
Cool I guess. Dark mode is broken on darkreader on this site tho.
I reserve some wordless music for when my sadness gets critical. That way, they always sound bittersweet without me listening them to death.
Lourié's 5 Préludes Fragiles. Makes me feel aware of how easy I am to break at the moment, but also how pretty survivalism through fragility can be.
Ravel's Pavane for a Dead Princess. It's not about a dead princess, just one in the past, but it makes me feel like I'm that princess, rich and sad and stepping around in a bright, cream-beige ballroom. Instead of just solely sad.
Debussy's Images. II. Hommage à Rameau. A quiet plaintiveness with occasionally rising energy helps me tend closer to neutrality.
Stanchinsky's Prelude in the Lydian Mode. As the n-tuplets get desperate, I get desperate to fix everything. But then the curses stop and we return to a pretty but occasionally sickly quiet. The nonsenses are pinpricks in its floral thoughts.
Glinka/Balakirev's The Lark. Reminds me that I'm fluttering, not just floundering.
In any order, but I usually start with the Fragile Preludes (especially the middle few of the set). Lyrical songs are usually for higher energy/mood to me
Hey guys, gals, and Jofans! It's ya boy, Jofa, and we're here with another video about how to use the ping command!

So, today we'll be teaching you about ping. But first, I want to apologize for my upload schedule. I've been having a lot of trouble lately, my bicycle broke down, I got a papercut, and my wife's dad's brother's dog-walker-in-law crashed my divorce, but that's a story for another time. Anyway, it's time to start our... can you believe it? #500 Skill Videos. sips water That's like a 500th anniversary of skills. Speaking of skills,

Alright, enough rambling. Here's how to use the ping command. Ping was invented by bucket makers when they realized dropping a coin in a bucket made a sound. ping... let's see. Oops, typo. Anyway, that's what it looks like!

People who call others cringe can be pretty cringe. Also people who generalize -- e.g. via "all people who call others cringe are cringe" -- is a cringe. Also people who stay noncommittal, avoiding vulnerability under layers of irony, can be pretty cringe too.
I thought there was only one impersonation (which was attacked since it didn't have the quotes that the NYT had extracted from their unreleased copy).
About a possibility of a hoax: Klippenstein has a fairly reputable history of uncovering/reporting on leaks, but this situation is essentially a
