Back then, I wrote mostly about whatever was bouncing around in my head (which often clothed itself in a confessional tone). And, it wouldn&amp;rsquo;t be too far off
to say it was my attempt to stay sane by exorcising my mental demons.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In this day and age, though, it feels like that could be dangerous (and maybe it was then, too, but I was young). There are a lot of people out there trying to capitalize on other people or to score some points at someone else&amp;rsquo;s
expense. And, the web is just more populated with non-techies than it was then (with all that that brings).&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Song of Myself</title><link>https://blog.kevinclarke.info/quote/song-of-myself/</link><pubDate>Wed, 29 Jul 2026 23:33:21 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://blog.kevinclarke.info/quote/song-of-myself/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;“Do I contradict myself?&lt;br/&gt;
Very well then I contradict myself,&lt;br/&gt;
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)”&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
