extra words
Entries prefixed “blog” are messy stream-of-consciousness over-sharing that probably isn’t interesting or relevant to anybody. anything that’s good and/or useful, I intend to revise into its own “article”.
Entries prefixed “(wip)” are notes, hypotheses, unfinished ideas, rough drafts, etc. I mean really rough: I’ll often return to some notes for revision to find that the sentiment they convey is completely at odds with what I was trying to say in the first place.

The rest are “articles,” I suppose, but it’s not like anything here has more than a modicum of revision and polish.
