This is a test of the WhiteWind platform that allows you to write simple blog posts that are longer than a BSKY post, but then share them.
So, I'll start with posting a picture.
And then some more text. I'll just share something I read today on Substack by Roshod Taylor:
The creative life isn’t romantic. I need to say that upfront because I think there’s this idea floating around, on Instagram, in artist documentaries, in the way people talk about “following your passion” that choosing art is some kind of beautiful rebellion. And maybe it is, in moments. But most of the time? It’s choosing to print on a Saturday night while everyone else is out living the life you’re supposedly documenting. It’s explaining, again, why you can’t “just take a photo” for free. It’s years of being misunderstood by the people closest to you.
But damn, I wouldn’t trade it.
It's true, the editor is rudimentary, but this idea is a great step toward what the web should be.
