I've Been Here Before

From the outside, there’s no change. Readable output. Same stylistic choices. The cover is like a fitted sheet. Easily transplanted onto whatever can fit its shape. I think it’s the same, but the longer you look the more you notice. Some valleys have been smoothed over. There are new bumps yet to be discovered. You’re seeing what I’m seeing. Of that I’m sure. Maybe not here, specifically, but when it comes to mapping familiar structures over re-invented internal blueprints. A liminal space to keep us busy while the real work gets done. We’re distracted and move aimlessly through these hallways, unaware the exit is being built before we can reach it. New lanes misdirect us to buy it time to finish construction. All that is to say I’ve asked AI to migrate my site to a hand-rolled CMS with specific writing tools for my wants and needs. It looks the same, and it’ll change again. I know that much.
