Hi, I'm Deven Trinity Blake. I'm just your normal everyday nerd.
translations of my name include:
You can use they/them, she/her, or E/Em pronouns to refer to me, or whatever genderless pronoun set you prefer to use.
If this confuses you just say things like "they walked", or "I saw them walking".

ism - A distinctive doctrine, system, or theory. (From the American Heritage(R) Dictionary of the English Language, 5th ed, according to Wordnik.)
Trinitisms are decrees I make or terms I coin with no necessary reason. Or terms I use often that people don't know. Trinitisms marked with ID are independent drivel - if I didn't come up with them first, I at least came up with them independently of anyone else, or believe I did.
Trinitism when not used as a proper noun can refer to any given person's own trinitisms.
ID
catfella - the non-gender-specific form of "catboy" or "catgirl".
Coined 2020-08-11 when referring to my friend Socks.
Also in use (though not a Trinitism): nyanbinary.

These are browser extensions I usually install and use. These are Mozilla Firefox extensions that work in the latest versions of Mozilla Firefox. If you use Google Chrome, please stop.
It's no secret that I type every character of my website, by hand, without any form of generation. I brag about it a lot. It's my justification for calling other, ostensibly better websites garbage. It also doubles as a bit of a running gag. The intention, partially, is to shock people. Also a bit to inspire them. "All you need is a browser and a text editor." And the usual contrarianism. Many of these qualities are considered bad and for good reasons - it's just needless. We've progressed past raw HTML-writing. Modern computers can handle modern websites. And these are all not only good reasons but true.
However keep in mind that sometimes progress isn't good. (I do not mean social progress, which I support in most forms.) Where has progress in the web taken us? Commercial advertisements in cyber-space? Web browsers running proprietary third party code? Digitally restricted media being limited to playback within browsers? While yes, these are technological advancements, they're a progression of Capitalism, not of humanity. They are a sign of the conquest of the web by the hands of the corporate world. Yuck.
So I don't write bare HTML to be contrary to other "web developers", though contrarianism is a welcome part of it. I write bare HTML to encourage the usage of web browsers that prioritize privacy and tell anyone looking to make a buck through the web to sod off.
Anyway, with the philosophical side out of the way, here's a list in arbitrary order of things I think make good HTML
DIVs or SPANs.
If you're following the rest of these rules they're totally unnecessary.
I should say that what I mean by "kin" is just that I identify with, or have a kinship with, these characters. I don't believe I am these characters. I've heard that's a thing.
Finishing high school, writing a line editor just as a fun project, living life.
Quarantining due to possible COVID exposure on 2021-05-03 (I don't think I meet the threshold for "close contact" but I'm still isolating for ten days out of principle). Still no symptoms.
I have my first Pfizer SARS-CoV-2 vaccine dose! I was scheduled to get my second dose on the 5th, but... anyway, hopefully I can get it soon.
This site uses Cloudflare for DNS but shouldn't have any Cloudflare tracking or anything like that. There's no proxying. Nor do I (currently) log visitor IP addresses - this may change. I like knowing from where my visitors are. But I don't know if I'd ever really do something invasive like that.
The only cookie used in this site is to establish the user's preference when it comes to the site theme. This can be set using the control panel on the site index and isn't set at all until "save theme settings" is clicked. If you never save the settings there will be no cookies on this site. But if there are there's nothing I can do about that unless I borked the JS.
trinity.moe is served through GitHub Pages as a static site. You see the same code I do. No JavaScript is minified or obfuscated. You're free to plaigarize, pilfer, copy, whatever of this website you'd like, just don't put my name on something I didn't say. Seriously. The code is yours. Take all the JS without crediting me. Hotlink the CSS. It's yours. You're free.
