Legacy entries.
The links that follow are a collection of legacy blog entries from 2004–2014, or “when I started blogging on this domain” to “when I got into streaming.” Although these posts have survived the numerous platform moves over years, there is no guarantee that they've survived the trip unscathed (especially the links). They're presented in an as-is, “until I get tired of seeing it broken” state.
