On my excuse for not posting regularly <\/p><\/div>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Hello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re a serial killer trying to learn about my inner thoughts, may I kindly refer you to some help<\/a>. Else, if you\u2019re just a curious reader, I say again:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I acquired the domain name jamesborg.mt<\/a> around June of 2023, and set up a nifty little landing page a month later. Since then the website has evolved a touch, but now I\u2019ve decided to add a blog section where I can openly share my scantily-organised streams of consciousness<\/s> thoughts with the open internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I just asked ChatGPT (now in its April 2025 4o iteration) if \u2018scantily-organised streams of consciousness\u2019 makes sense. It suggested that I should use \u2018loosely organised streams of consciousness instead\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, there it is<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I fully expect that by a week I\u2019ll have forgotten all about this blog, and when I just so happen to remember of its existence, I will live a guilt-ridden quarter of an hour\u2026 until I forget all over again and start thinking about something else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ll do my best to post something on this blog every week. But I won\u2019t promise it will be of any substance or value to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you, like me, are somewhat of an aesthete and like to like things, welcome! If you\u2019re a philistine, welcome! If you\u2019re a serial killer\u2026 is your browser working properly? I gave you a link to visit, pal. Please go away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks. Until next time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
