π¨οΈπ‘ 11:11, Under the Strawberry Moon
Why I opened this site today at 11:11, under the Strawberry Moon β unfinished, and on purpose.
I published this site today, 30 June 2026, at 11:11.
I didn't choose the time. My wife did. Tonight is the Strawberry Moon, and the alignments that follow it pointed to this hour. I didn't argue β because when a beginning happens often matters as much as what begins. And if someone I love marks a moment for me, I trust her with it.
The site isn't finished. I don't think it needs to be. I've been working on a corner, a page, a heading of it for years; some parts are in place, some are scaffolding, some are still just intent. For a long time I thought I'd wait until it was done. Then I realized: being done isn't a goal, it's an excuse. The longer I waited, the harder going live became β and the longer I stayed offline, the less real the writing, the trying, the sharing felt.
So today, at this hour, I'm opening it as it is. Presentable β but not complete. I don't expect it ever to be. I want this to be a living place; edited, added to, sometimes deleted from. Not a magazine. A workshop.
Thank you to my wife β for marking the hour, and for carrying all these half-things with me for years.
If you're reading this and something looks broken: it probably is. It'll get better, slowly. That's the story of this place.
