After spending 13 on-and-off years experimenting with various methods of share my thoughts over the Internet, I've decided to try delivering this blog to you with the help of Dreamwidth and Neocities. Although I am (embarrassingly) somehow still new to the world of HTML, CSS, and other coding languages, I'm trying my hardest to present this blog in a simple and accessible way.

My name's Dairy, I love constructs (robots, A.I., androids, and all manner of sentient machines), and I especially enjoy analyzing fiction about them. In 2020, I graduated with my bachelor's degree in English, creative writing, and cinema from the University of Iowa and I intend to put my degree to the best use I can think of: penning a blog full of analytical essays about representations of constructs in media.

'Robots' (and all constructs in general) were my earliest special interest as a young autistic person. For many reasons, I've always strongly related to stories about sentient machines grappling with personhood, emotions, and autonomy. At this point in my life, it seems like my obsession with robots and A.I. is something that everyone who knows me is aware of. It's difficult not to feel proud of my status as a kind of 'designated authority' on the topic and I look forward to writing about all sorts of titles. From books to movies to video games to television shows and more, I'll be writing my opinions and analytical perspectives on as many constructs as I can. I can't promise regularity of any kind with my blog posts; they're released if and when I'm able to find the spare time and muster enough motivation to extract my inspiration for analytical content.

If you're interested in more regular posts (that aren't necessarily mine or strictly on-topic) and you happen to have a Tumblr, I encourage you to follow me there. I've been a Tumblr user since December of 2010. Despite spending more than a decade on the platform, however, I wanted a more 'traditional' (early internet) place to publish these blog posts. If you're already one of my Tumblr, Twitter, or Instagram followers, fear not; my establishment of this blog is not to replace my currently-existing social media presences. If anything, I'm going to be adding to them by giving my analytical content a proper home.

I hope that Neocities and Dreamwidth will prove to be an enjoyable addition to my Internet-resources arsenal for years to come.
