wordsmith‽ ⁂

I'm a crepuscular poet who drifts between phases irregularly, carried by an unrequited romance with the Moon. If you create something that's the right shape, poetry may fall out of me.

In reality I'm a British European in southern England who marinaded in Scotland and the Westcountry.

I occasionally post photos on my Pixelfed account at metapixl.com/@wordsmith

I will gladly accept more poetry.

Here's a little teaser video I made of the intro to the track. I recorded it on my phone while at the car wash 🤭

@semiotic_pirate one day the floppy disk icon will change to a cloud and then we'll be back to a storage medium as reliable as a floppy disk.

Related to this - occasionally my brain asks me "why did anyone need Shift Lock, as opposed to Caps Lock?" as I'm not even sure why we needed it on typewriters.

@Emmacox one would hope there was a suitable amount of smuggling to compensate them.

@EvanderLFragoso the current vignette I've been "writing" for about six months has kept me honest to the theme by doing my best not to just let unrelated stuff spill out all over the page, as is my wont.

@semiotic_pirate Which also harkens back to "uppercase" and "lowercase" - in typesetting the printer (person, not infernal machine) would carry the former "type" in the upper portion of their case, and the latter on the lower portion.

@nebulos I'd definitely cringe if I read someone confusing inflation (or profiteering) with enshittification. I feel that would undoubtedly be metaenshittification!

2025-05-27

@nebulos I'm yet to see much erosion of "enshittifaction", just...lots of it since it's happening all over the damn place.

@lislegaard I can't tell if this is more Daft Punk or Knight Rider.

@Aphelion *proffers stump*

A photo of a wizened tree stump, covered in lush green moss. It sits amongst a carpet of crunchy leaves and holly, with some plucky sprouts of grass dotted around. Something definitely lives in the stump's nook.

@nash this is my favourite yet! I'm sure Luna will rise again for this serenade.

@ptmesis I want to read it, been a while since I saw SCP in the wild.

@TashPoetry I think if a poem leaves one reader asking questions, it's done some good and deserved to be written.

I hope you keep writing if it helps return to the analogue.
