Gratuitous theme update post.

 I didn't design the theme from the ground up, but I created a seamless grid image in GIMP and then played around with the color scheme.

I was going for the V A P O R W A V E   A E S T H E T I C.  

I might play around with it, add some gradients and other stuff.

I made palak paneer for the first time, but screwed up on toasting the spices, so they were scorched instead. It still tastes okay, but I am definitely going to be more careful next time.




EDIT: Oh! Some of you may be aware that Lazytown is still a thing that exists, and has spawned a new bunch of memes as of late:

I feel super-weird about how much I love vaporwave. It's a thing that the kids like and I don't fully understand but it fits so well with my a e s t h e t i c oh god.

I love it, though! I don't know if you are a William Gibson fan, but it feels like the future we thought we were headed for in 1989 is trying to force its way through over the dominant timeline, Gernsback Continuum-style.

I haven't read nearly enough Gibson. But yeah, that.
