95 reasons for having your own website

拥有个人网站的 95 个理由

95 reasons for having your own website random to write for oneself to post quietly to have a home on the open web to keep a record of the days to learn how the web works to make a friend across the world to have a place to keep memories to learn HTML to write lists to keep a daily writing practice to lean into feeling naive to understand more about your relationship to yourself, to others, or to the world to write poetry to use the web as a medium and material to ground oneself to remember to make a place for conviviality to create the community that you didn’t have growing up to make a photo album as a place to rage to recreate your old blogspot or tumblr as a love letter to keep to use social media a little less to post for oneself to be fragile to ground yourself to collect things and display them on a shelf together to keep things unfinished and open ended to contemplate your own mortality as an activity to do with a friend, “lets make a website together” out of boredom to keep notes as a medium to make a movie an excuse to go to the park because vibe coding only gets you so far for the love of the web to pretend that it’s 2010 again to pretend that it’s 2000 again to become an island to become an archipelago with your friends as a form of prayer to remember that a website is just files & folders as a form of play because you want to publish offline to feel in control to feel out of control to stay unstructured to think through a big life decision to be your own localhost to keep an index of colors to go deep to feel more alive when interacting with a computer to publish without social pressure to keep the like counter at 0 to troll yourself to make infinite scrolling optional to bring guest books back to write for yourself to show others what the web could be to world the world as a wish to retain the aura of your work to write your own wikipedia entry to remove the cynicism from the reason to stay grounded in the seasons to own what you publish after reading an essay about what a website could be so that the nerds don’t have the only voice on the www as a form of care because it has very little to do with brutalism because it feels good to be alive as a way to find love as a form of protest as a radical statement to have a clean room to be in motion to recharge to draw to try out POSSE as a way to go forward by looking back to bring web rings back to create bridges to other activities to feel young and old at the same time to archive everything you’ve ever done to own your own instagram grid to learn how to juggle because no other medium is a container for images, audio, video, text, time, hyperlinks it’s still a largely unexplored artistic medium to make a soup to create a scene report to document a ufo sighting to walk with as a way to make a custom home screen for your phone to publish your music outside the confines of the platforms … do we need a reason to website?
