+.Nd a bit of a mess
+.
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+Shortly after my last post
+I started writing another one
+but I never finished it.
+I don't think I had enough to say,
+or if I did it meant going into
+a whole extra thing.
+I also had a list in my mind
+of other things to write about,
+but inspiration hasn't really struck
+for any of them.
+I'm currently in the mood
+to write something anyway,
+so I'm just going to write a bit
+about the topics I have in mind.
+I may or may not ever
+write more about any of them.
+.
+.Pp
+The post I had started writing
+(twice, actually)
+was about voices.
+I like them a lot
+and I'm fascinated by them.
+The problem is
+I don't actually have much
+to say about it
+without getting into Gender,
+which as I say is a whole extra thing,
+and not something I've written about here before.
+.
+.Pp
+When I started writing here,
+I didn't want to blog about
+personal topics or LGBTQ stuff.
+But more recently
+I want to move away from
+only writing about computers.
+Or maybe away from
+writing about computers entirely.
+There are more interesting things,
+but I don't have experience
+writing about them.
+Yet,
+I should say.
+.
+.Pp
+I'm honestly still not sure
+if writing about gender here
+is at all a good idea.
+But it turns out to feel like
+a bit of a prerequisite
+for other things.
+I find gender perception
+in particular
+to be fascinating.
+It's interesting.
+It's neat.
+And I don't know if I can
+write anything coherent about it.
+.
+.Pp
+Related to that,
+I've been thinking of writing
+about how the pandemic
+has had a strangely positive effect
+on my life.
+Or at least,
+I've made a lot of positive changes
+during it.
+I'm in a better place emotionally now
+than ever before,
+and that obviously runs counter
+to most people's experiences.
+Additionally with that positive outlook
+I want to write about the meaning
+of my domain name.
+I'm proud of it.
+.
+.Pp
+This week the topic of fetish
+has been on my mind.
+That actually feels
+a bit less risky
+to write about than gender.
+And it may honestly be more interesting.
+I don't know.
+There's not enough sex
+on computer blogs,
+or whatever this is.
+Although my main ideas
+are not about sex at all.
+.
+.Pp
+Just this turned out to be
+harder to write than I thought it would be.
+I think I want to populate this space
+with more short posts like the previous one.
+I wrote that while very sleepy
+after 3 AM though,
+and I don't exactly
+want to repeat that regularly.
+We'll see.
