Just discovers that yesterday Anne Franck was trending on Twitter because she had “white privilege”. I’m disgusted, dumbfounded, and lost for words. Fuming.
A personal update
Saturday, July 9, 2022
We’re a week into July now and my decision to write some personal objectives for the quarter to go alongside my work objectives is proving to be an interesting experiment. I’ve begun to try and build some new habits to help me achieve not just my personal objectives but also my work ones. The first of those habits has been to set aside the first 30 minutes of my work day to read and write.

Moving to Ghost
Monday, July 4, 2022
A year or so ago I moved my blog from Wordpress to Jekyll, going from a CMS powered website to a static site generator. The idea behind it was to make designing and building the site easier from my iPad, and in the hope it would give me a push to post more often. It didn’t work. So I find my self making another move and switching to Ghost to give that a try.
Went for a walk with this little lady today. Had a fun time, she settled down with me after a few minutes walking.
More googling helped and I’ve managed to get it all imported.
Trying to get my blog content from Jekyll to Ghost is not proving easy. I’ve got my content exported but there’s a step to do in between that and importing which I don’t understand how to do… anyone have experience?

It’s been a while since I shared a Home Screen but just made a few tweaks.
Interesting that the latest update to Matter supports RSS, might give it a try on a few feeds to see how it works.
Today can mostly be summed up with one sound. “Achooo…” 🤧🌱🚫
Intrigued by the new update to iA Writer. I wasn’t expecting them to add wikilinks or anything along those lines to the app. It’s an interesting development and the fact it’s not electron is appealing. Looks good on my iPad.
Does anyone know of an inbox app? A universal Quick Capture, where I can shove anything throughout the day. Links to read, ideas, tasks, basically anything, then at the end of the day process the inbox and send things where they need to go.

Picked up a copy of How To Take Smart Notes with a gift card I got from work and had forgotten about.
Connected Matter to Notion to give it a try as a place to store all my reference material. Starting to wonder if how I’m using Obsidian is the way for me or whether I need a combination of apps to replace it. Notion for databases, Day One for Journal, something else for notes/writing…

My personal Mac has reached the age where it’s not eligible for new updates to macOS. My iPad Pro is a 2018 one that won’t work with the extended desktop. I bought the iPad with the intention it would replace my Mac but it doesn’t feel like it’s progressed enough to do that and I can’t play Steam games on it.
Watching the WWDC keynote. Interesting start to iOS 16.
