Get to know iHanna in 15 quick questions I have gotten so many new subscribers to the blog (hiii there!) that I thought I'd post a silly little introduction post today. A get to know me, iHanna, in a few random questions about this and that. Not in depth or anything, just a bit of fun because I don't do things like this often enough (mostly because I have so many blog ideas inside my head wanting to be typed out that I don't need to collect more).

Silly facts about me, and maybe you want to answer these questions too? Let me know if you do!

People let me down so I made a list I’m trying hard to blog daily for NaBloPoMo. It has been a dark week. Other people let me down, I let myself down. My post for today is a list of what I accomplished today. As my reward for not giving into despair, multiple cats came to visit me tonight in my room. That makes […] The post People let me down so I made a list first appeared on Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents.

The blog post about placeholders I can’t think of a blog topic today. That’s okay. Sometimes you just need a placeholder while your brain sorts out all of the things. The post The blog post about placeholders first appeared on Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents.

Will the grandchildren of ICE Nazis make amends? I watch (and share) a lot of videos that are focused on identifying ICE agents, documenting kidnappings, and lauding the creative, persistent resistance. Sometimes I wonder what I’d say if I was holding the bullhorn or recording with my phone. I’m not sure that the words of an individual have any impact or can prevent […] The post Will the grandchildren of ICE Nazis make amends? first appeared on Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents.

Worry. Why do I let myself worry? Today was busy. I did some work on sourcing winter shelters for our pet food pantry caretakers. Thanks to many volunteers, we now have 10 completed shelters that should be distributed in the next 48 hours as cold weather approaches. We need some more. I asked Animal Friends for more kits. One of our caretakers […] The post Worry. Why do I let myself worry? first appeared on Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents.

Halloween Project: Marquee Remember the Ticket Booth I talked about yesterday? That was actually an afterthought this year, an idea I came up with as I was developing the primary project: a full-size, functioning marquee! Ka…

Halloween Project: Ticket Booth Years ago, I used to put on a pretty great Halloween show at my house. Each year it grew more and more, and while I had a few pre-made props and store-bought animatronics, I took a lot of pride in …

November, Again November, Again November, Again November, Again # November, Again November, Again November, Again November, Again Published on: November 1, 2025 Categories: NaBloPoMo 4, Personal 19 Current drink: Ceylon tea For the third time, I am attempting to write a blog post for every day of November. I managed to do it for 2023 and 2024. I won’t promise I’ll manage to post every day this time, but I’ll try. ## Apple Annie I was not sure if I will do this attempt, but when thinking about the coming November, I couldn’t stop thinking about Anne Sturdivant who passed at the beginning of this year (post by Adam Newbold — thanks for letting us know), and who was the constant presence for this challenge for the last years. Annie was an inspiration, and I loved how many different topics she covered in her blogs. I mentioned her posts and experiments five times in my blog, and I am endlessly sad that no new posts of her will be mentioned here. But I will try to at least continue doing this challenge: even though it was always very tough, it was always _productive_. For me, that challenge will now always be associated with Annie. ## Burnout I did not write about CSS a lot this year, right? Neither on my main site, nor in this blog. And I did not do many new experiments. I am a perfectionist, and often it feels like, sometimes, I care too much about what I do. And then, when I expect the same care from others, and find that it is just not there, it can hurt. My debt of spoons is big, and it is hard to find strength for doing anything. So many drafts, so many of them are not finished, not published, covered by digital dust, crumbled in a corner between dropped anime series and unfinished video games. My hope is that having to post each day of this month will at least produce _something_. ## The Plan I have a big backlog of stuff I want to write about, but I also created a list of what I could write about this month specifically. I won’t post it here, but here is what I will _try_ to do: * Every weekend I will post something non-CSS related: more personal notes, thoughts, maybe game reviews? We’ll see. * Weekdays will be for more front-end related stuff. CSS. Maybe something else. Maybe will do some more work on this blog and post some dev logs? Other than that, I don’t think I will follow any specific structure. I hope that on the weekends I could manage start writing drafts for some of the future November posts, just so I will be not as pressed to do so on the actual days. I want to say and write even more now that I started — as it often happens with me. The hardest thing is to begin, then words start flowing. ## Thank You If you read this post — thank you. Sometimes it feels that the internet of old is gone. But anyone who has it in them to read random musings of people on the web contributes to the idea of independent network. And if you’ll want to write a few more posts than usual this November — send them my way, regardless of the topic — I’ll be happy to read them.

New blog post: “November, Again”

For the third time, I am attempting to write a blog post for every day of November. I managed to do it for 2023 and 2024. I won’t promise I’ll manage to post every day this time, but I’ll try.

The issue of Too Many Ideas To create is to live twice. – Albert Camus I haven't updated in a while, but my few but dear blogging companions kept going. Robin of Robayre writes about two recent losses (one turned out great, the other unexpected and sad). Mary-Ann has, after doing a public count-down for years, finally stopped working to enjoy retired life. Her joy of being finally free is contagious.

As far as I can remember I have never posted a "sorry for my absence" in blogging, and that's intentional. I do think women tend to say "sorry" way too often...

A screenshot of the Not started, Notes, and Draft columns of my blogging backlog. Unfortunately I don’t have a good way to transcribe all of them, and I’m sorry about that for those of you who can’t read it.

Today's probably the last day I'll get a post out for #NaBloPoMo, but 17 so far is still better than I did last year. See anything you’d like me to try and get out today?

Not listed: a retrospective on this year's NaBloPoMo probably including thoughts […]
