Welcome to krrd.ing!

I'm Brandon and this is my primary hub on the internet. You can learn more about me here. Below you'll find my longer form articles, links to things I've written elsewhere and the latest few additions to my Postroll. I mostly write about tech and spirituality (and the swirl of topics around these things). But honestly - anything goes.

Want to connect? Until I add an email form, find me on Mastodon or Bluesky! (But feel free to just follow along the writing here if you’d prefer!)

Looking for a fun indieweb community online? Check out omg.lol! It's the best I've found!
