Welcome to HeathenJoe's homepage

This is a brand new webpage as of 22 Feb 2025. If it still looks like this in a month, I'm going to be sad.

Here's something on my mind, just because...

Once, long ago, I was singing to some music on the radio. A "friend" asked me who sings it. After replying with the artist's name, they said "let's just keep it that way."

Recently, I felt that way about the stuff I post online. Shouldn't we just let the people who can sing, sing; let the people who can write, write. If I can't do a particular skill well, I probably shouldn't inflict the world with my "mediocrity."

I'm slowly overcoming my mopey thoughts, and I'm realizing if someone's brain hurts so much from trying to read what I write, they can just stop reading and go somewhere else. I'm not getting paid for what I put out there, and no one is under any obligation to consume the content I produce. So, yeah. I'm thinking of singing to my heart's content, regardless of how ear-wrenching it may be to anyone else. All I have to say is, leave the room if it bothers you so much.

...and for those of you who don't mind...bless you.
