Hello,
My name is Charlotte. I have a cat and I live in a small apartment. I made this blog half out of nostalgia from when I was very small and had an embarrassing middle school blog because having a blog and a twitter account was what being online meant back then.
The other half is a desire to just be online. Instagram makes me ill, twitter has been deep fried by Nazi's and most other forms of social media just aren't fun anymore. They feel suffocating and demanding. I need something a little slower and kinder.
So this is a nice compromise. I'm not making any schedule or deadlines for posts, those make me feel like I'm at my job. I want to feel happy when I post something on here.
It's also so refreshing to use blogger. In addition to the nostalgia I feel for the platform (I can afford a custom domain!!! Middle school me could never.), it's also old enough to be seemingly forgotten by google and as a result it is not swamped with Gemini AI features as other more modern blogging sites have been. I can't express how cozy this is tapping away at my laptop under a blanket.
Right now I'm obsessed with Audrey Hobert's album Who's the Clown?. My favorite song is Thirst Trap but Sue Me is a close second. I've been watching the Smosh reddit stories with my breakfast every Sunday morning and having a flurry of average-to-bad first dates on the weekends. I watched the Olympics and was normal about Women's Hockey.
Here's a photo of my cat.
