These generalizations make others less than ourselves… but only in our minds.
We cannot be free until we’re all free, and setting ourselves up as more worthy than those we oppose does not seek collective liberation.
Let’s not use the ugly tools of supremacy in pursuit of human flourishing.

Some things it will eventually do:
- Syndicate to email list, ATProto, and the Fediverse
- User account management
- Feed reader with offline support
- Alternative storage support, like Git and S3 buckets
I admit if I want these features to come to life fast, I’ll need help.
This is not an ask.
The code is not published yet under its open source license.
It won’t be until I can figure out the best license to protect from closed-source and AI theft.
When I publish the source code, I promise I’ll ask for help.
For now, it’s just for me.
And that’s finally okay.
After all this time, it won’t be vaporware.
Will it do everything from day one that I wanted over the years? No.
It will let me write pages and posts and syndicate via RSS. Those are the basics I need to just *use* it and be rid of Wordpress.
The bells and whistles will come later.
I can’t wait to share more about the basic features I needed. As far as I know, nobody is offering quite the underlying data format and handling that I wanted with the flexibility that I needed.
It’s tempting to get all “entrepreneur”-brained and hustle-pilled again.
Screw that.
We use the tools of oppressors at our own peril.
Generalizing for an entire group the intelligence, beauty, income, or other traits that folk cannot control is a mistake rooted in supremacy.
To say things like “this group of oppressors is not smart” is to underestimate at least some of them.

I expect to be using EmdashJS to run my website by my birthday this year, in June.
I’m pretty excited! It has been a huge labor during the last four years. I took on more than I could handle, started from scratch 3 times, paused for the health of my marriage, family, and mind.
Somehow, it’s here.
