june 22, 2025 my goodness! the curator's been away from changing exhibits here in the museum for a while, but off-site activity has been at an all-time high! good internet magazine has launched, going out all over the world, and riverton is ever-closer to being fully launched (despite having a full game loop!). as these projects get into a rhythm, there should be a new redesign finished for the fall. the indieweb is alive, well, and thriving; i hope to see you around!
