About

Hey, girlypop! I'm known as Coalmine Canary on this part of the internet. Heads up, this site is a work in progress. My HTML and CSS skills are rusty.

I'm in my late 20s/early 30s and, like all people my age, I yearn for the indie web of old. I feel like I'm watching the knowledge of the internet disappear. It's harder to find factual sources than it used to be. Open source projects are ending as people stop contributing or their maintainers die. I want to do my bit and contribute to the people-first internet renaissance.

So welcome to my personal webpage. I plan on using this place as a catch all. Notes about subjects I find important, resources, goals, etc. My interests include books, Star Trek, wood working, plants, stained glass, tech, writing (the oxford comma is non-negotiable), and more. I'd love to hear from you. Feel free to contact me.

I just went through some big life changes in 2025 and I'm trying to reform habits and hobbies in my new environment. There will be a lot of content about productivity and personal goals. I have several travel plans for 2026, so content about traveling and budgeting. I was diagnosed with ADHD in 2023 and I still find it an interesting topic, so there will be some content about that as well.
