-<p>2021-05-19</p>
-<p>Hey would you look at that - my personal blog has been redesigned <em>again</em>! Although I am still using good ol&#8217; Jekyll for the backend, I have now added a more fleshed-out CSS design which also includes a set of open source custom typefaces.</p>
-<p><strong>Gasp!</strong> &#8220;How <em>could</em> you?!&#8221; I hear you ask. Let me explain.</p>
-<h2 id="personal-sites-should-feel-personal">Personal sites should feel personal</h2>
-<p>I can see how this change might seem hypocritical (it took some convincing myself) but I decided to follow in to footsteps of Kev Quirk and <a href="https://kevq.uk/adding-some-whimsy-character/">added a little whimsy and character</a> to my website. After all, personal websites should <em>feel personal</em>. My obsession with barebones HTML &#38; CSS serves its purpose on other public projects, but seems limiting for my own little space on the interwebs.</p>
-<h2 id="banned-from-my-own-club">Banned from my own club</h2>
-<p>I had originally converted this blog&#8217;s design to use <em>zero</em> CSS and instead rely solely on default browser styling. The main reasoning for doing so, was to have the ability to include my own personal website in the <a href="https://xhtml.club">XHTML Club</a> project. (I never said it was a <em>good</em> reason)</p>
-<p>After giving it some thought, I&#8217;ve decided that this limitation seemed too extreme even for me.</p>
-<h2 id="moving-forward">Moving forward</h2>
-<p>I know I always say &#8220;With this new design, I can finally focus on just writing content!&#8221; - but this is a lie. I&#8217;ll probably be fiddling with my personal website until the day I die. The good news is that I <em>do</em> have a few tutorial blog posts lined up to publish soon - so be on the lookout for those!</p>
-<p>Thanks for reading through my pointless ramblings about personal websites. It&#8217;s good to just vent about these things sometimes&#8230;</p>
