Microblog

Hello
I’m Axel

Designer, Software Enginer and artsy dude. Neurospicy. Dad of two. Extremely anxious. Writing gives me peace.

I’m working on this site live, learning how to modify/create themes for micro.blog, so it’s going to be from slightly to really messed up for a while. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi

Updates

My latest posts

  • Websites, websites, websites.

    I have a few domains that, while not entirely unused, are essentially abandoned websites. Now that I’m reviving this blog, I feel the urge to do the same with at least some of them:

    HTMLyCSS
    A blog about HTML and CSS techniques and snippets. This is one of my most passionate subjects, but I really didn’t had the time to maintain the style of posts. Maybe I should just simplify it.

    The Headphonist
    Originally a Medium collection about songs, then a website, then a newsletter, now just… nothing.

    Noice.mx
    Pending website about the podcasts I produce / plan to produce.

    Also, I have axelvaldez.mx, axelvaldez.com (which I lost for 12-13 years to domain scalpers), and axel.mx, this very domain.

  • Time flies when you’re having fun*.

    * Frantically googling and trying code, balancing frustration with small doses of dopamine when things work out. 😅

  • When it comes to beats, well, I’m a fiend; I like my sugar with coffee and cream.

  • Messing with code again for my micro.blog theme has given my mood a boost. I love this and I really missed it.

  • I’m a big rewatcher. I treat movies and TV series as music. Sometimes I watch them to bring me into certain mood or to ride on a feeling. Just like music.

  • Jumping again into the micro.blog thing. I’m bored and I need to write, and I’m not in the mood to create everything from scratch like I usually try to do—and stop mid-way. Also, federation is kinda cool—and messy, but I’m learning to love messy.
