the etymology of the word ‘blog’ is insane
blog is a contraction of web-log.
log as in a record of your posts, but more generally as a record of events that happened. as in a 'logbook’, a record of the speeds of a ship. log-book as in 'chip log’, a piece of wood they tied to a rope to measure speed with
web as in the world wide web. as in a huge interconnected woven web of connections, but with computers and networks instead. the use of web in this context as such a metaphor was coined less than fifty years ago
the tendrils of history reach back so far and so close at once, and all so we can coin silly terms like “blogosphere.” do you see me. everything’s connected
and somehow we’re all still here on this site, leaving little bits of wood in each others’ spider webs to remember one another by

i went to a tiny counterserve diner once and accidentally poured sugar instead of salt all over my hashbrowns and was eating them sadly anyways. the waitress took them away and started making me another one and I tried to protest, but she just snorted and said “we’re not catholic here”. now every time i’m doing something painful out of obligation i think about how that is not repenting, this body is not a catholic establishment, there is no nobility in suffering.
