My web archive, from 2001 to 2022

Finding the Internet Archive link for my 2012 blog made me realize that the Internet Archive (bless them, and of course, support them financially) has a bunch of my 2012 to 2017 blog posts which I mostly considered lost forever. While I might prefer for them to be lost forever, I’ll still dive into the…

101 blog posts ideas for your personal website

Inspired by James’s recent lists of 100 things you can do on your personal website, here’s a list of 100 blog posts you can write. They’re based on enthusiasm for blogging and writing, not SEO or career advancement like so many of these lists are. I didn’t want to say content so I said blog…

Une injonction à la pédagogie militante

Cet article est une injonction à la pédagogie militante − et oui, la pédagogie militante, c’est épuisant. Tout ce qui est dit dans cet article se limite au cadre fixé dans mon article Comprendre et éviter l’épuisement militant, c’est-à-dire le cadre d’une conversation privée entre des personnes de bonne foi qui se connaissent bien. Rappel…

Accessibility notes from your headache-prone friend

This blog post was written as part of this month’s IndieWeb carnival, hosted by orchids on the theme of Accessibility in the small web. It was written during the Brighton IndieWebCamp: I’m attending remotely, but having the livestream on makes me feel like I’m sitting with all these productive and likeable people and gives me…

Un plan marketing (presque) tout fait pour votre asso

Il y a deux associations que j’aime beaucoup mais dont je ne participe absolument pas aux événements et aux conversations, parce que leur communication ne se fait pas là où je peux y participer, ou qu’elles font toute leur comm sur des plateformes où l’algorithme me cache leurs publications ou me montre leur nouvelle soirée…

Doing my part without showing it

Most of my social media presence has been on pause in 2024 − I’ll still do the occasional LinkedIn post and make liberal use of half a dozen messaging platforms (Beeper is my saviour), but it’s a far cry from my microinfluencer days on Twitter. Before deleting my account there in 2022, I had ~1500…

Récap de février 2024 / February 2024 in review

Plafond de l'hémicycle du palais d'Iéna.

February was just as intense as January, but thankfully shorter. I desperately need a break − which is pretty good, because I’ll be turning 30 on the 27th (woo!) and on holidays on the 28th of March. From March 31 to April 30, I’ll be touring Europe (going mostly through Northern Italy, Slovenia, Germany with…

Stagiaire café

Stagiaire café est un roman court d’Austin Chant que j’ai eu l’honneur de traduire en français. (Rendez-vous dans quelques mois pour la sortie de Peter Darling, un autre de ses romans que je suis en train de traduire !) Après son diplôme, Kieran s’attendait à démarrer une brillante carrière d’employé de fast-food, pas à décrocher…

January 2024 in review − Récap de janvier 2024

Montagne enneigée et ciel très très bleu.

January has been extremely overwhelming and given that I’m away from Feb 2nd to 13th, I’m not sure we’re heading towards calmer times. But I’m also not sure my body will give me a choice, so let’s hope things will calm down on their own, sooner than later. Also, I was selected to carry the…

My 2023 reading retrospective

Happy new year! After talking about my low-stakes accomplishments and the non-book media I consumed in 2023, it’s time to share my reading retrospective. It’s very fun on one hand, and absolutely terrible on the other: I hate having to whittle down the list to a mere top 24! From 2015 to 2020, I always…
