A blog post is a very long and complex search query to find
fascinating people and make them route interesting stuff to your
inbox.

I encourage you to start publishing your thoughts on a regular basis.
Don't overthink it. Start small. Just pick an existing platform and
start writing short posts. If it helps, get drunk, choose a
pseudonym, and post anonymously.

That's what I'm trying to do with this short piece. I wasted so much
time on overthinking and procrastinating that you could say this post
was 10 years in the making.

Don't over-engineer your site. Don't even check the grammar. Just
write 100 words and hit publish.
