After some weird technical stuff, it turns out I don’t have to start my blog over from scratch. (It had disappeared into an abyss and was replaced with a “rootstew.com coming soon!” landing page, which is not a good look.) I’m not sure how concerned I should be that my reaction to losing the old writing was…almost total indifference? The nice thing about words is that you can always make more, but I don’t really seem to have a use for them once I’m done with them…not that I made great use of this blog before.
Anyway, it looks like everything is back online and I get to remember that, as surely as night turns to day, I once had a Brita filter go moldy.
