I'm miredo, just some old guy who wants to take it easy. I've abandoned much of the internet at large and I want to enjoy things.
I like anime (in particular, I'm a shameless mahou shoujo and mecha anime fan), I like rhythm games (in particular, Beatmania IIDX) even though my reflexes are getting worse every day, I draw a little bit even though I'm terrible at it and have no intention of getting better, and I (used to) make music. I'm working on getting back into that. I do a bit of programming, but I am an incredibly lazy programmer.
I've been updating this site fairly often lately; this message was last updated November 20th, 2024. This site (and even this page!) can and will be updated more recently than that. I've been adding last updated dates to pages, but I know that I might forget to update them.
Here's my contact page, although I might be a little hard to get a hold of.
You can now follow my Atom feed with your favorite feed reader to keep up with site updates! This feed is manually edited. I don't keep a log of past updates in it, the feed is for keeping up with updates as I do them. Some updates, I'll decide are too minor, although if I'm adding a link, picture, or blog entry, I'll probably update the feed.
Also, check out meeat, which is a simple JS fill-in-the-blanks template for making an Atom feed by hand.
I wrote a blogpost for those who don't know about using RSS or Atom, so check it out (and then add the feed)!
I made a JavaScript game library called m(vl)gl!
Check out the sample game! It's pretty basic, but it's supposed to be basic.
I still need to provide documentation in HTML format, but all the important stuff is there. I hope to write a few small games with it and post them here.
Check out my drawing gallery!
I'm not a good artist, but there are quite a few pics I've drawn on display. Gets updated semi-often.
Check out my blog! I also have a miniblog, where unlike the main blog, entries don't get added to the feed.
I've written a handful of articles. They're mostly just short musings. I'm planning on a few more, although some might just end up as dedicated site sections, who knows.
The miniblog lets me add stuff to the site without really thinking too hard or needing to manually update the feed. I just want someting very low-friction and easy.
Listen to music I've made here.
Have a listen! Most of it is older, but I hope to get back into actively making and releasing music. I really hope I actually get around to making more music.
I'm working on pages detailing many the things I like here.
I need to add some pages, but what's there is increasingly substantial. I started to do some work on the Youtube recommendation page, especially due to how bad Youtube has become at recommending things.
Check out the links page.
There are quite a few links now! At some point, I've added links to the RSS/Atom feeds for sites that have them, too.
I joined the Lainchan webring!
There are a ton of pages here to check out. I haven't been to them all, and I don't make any quality or content guarantees, but it's pretty cool all around.
I added a chat page!
It's just a cbox in an iframe. If you find this site, say hi! Also, if a link is broken, this is probably the easiest way to tell me. I kinda wish I had my own hosting so I wouldn't need a third-party service, but I'm cheap and lazy.
Lastly, I made a tutorial on how to make backgrounds like mine. Click here to check it out! Nearly every page on the site has a different background because it's fun and easy to make them.
If I add more tutorials, I'll add a page sorting them all into one place.
This site has a mostly-working phone layout. If something breaks, just switch to desktop view. I do actually test, but I am strongly of the opinion that mobile should be second-class to a proper desktop layout.
This site is designed to work and render acceptably without CSS enabled or in a browser like Links. I do regularly test how the site looks with Links, and it works great in both graphics mode and on the terminal. With CSS enabled, the site needs a fairly modern browser to look right. I kind of want to add some Javascript to enable/disable the site theming, but I don't know if I'll actually go through with it or not.
Also, browsers like to cache this site pretty heavily, so you might want to hard-refresh the page first (Shift+F5 on desktop) or clear your caches. There is a very good chance you might miss an update because of cached pages!
