SUBJECT RECORD / FILE 001
Eric Foltin
Gen X. Independent-minded. Skeptical by default. Generally unimpressed by institutions that insist they know what's best for everybody.
I work for Senior Services of Belmont County as a Meals on Wheels driver. The job is more than dropping off food. It means checking in on people, making sure they're doing okay, and being a familiar face in somebody's day. It's useful work, and it matters.
Operating Principles
I have little patience for manufactured outrage, political theater, empty apologies, or people who confuse being loud with being right. Trust is earned. Boundaries exist for a reason.
I'm not interested in pretending everything is wonderful. Sometimes things are good. Sometimes they're a complete mess. Both can be true without turning either one into a motivational poster.
Interests and Distractions
80s and 90s punk rock. Pennywise. The Lillingtons. Misfits. Henry Rollins.
Old-school technology, HTML, Linux, CRT displays, photography, movies, books, and the internet before every website became a shopping mall.
Dogs, dystopian fiction, brutalist design, terminal interfaces, and anything that looks like it came out of a government computer room in 1984.
Why This Site Exists
This is my personal corner of the internet. Writing, projects, observations, and whatever else seems worth putting online.
No algorithm deciding what deserves attention. No engagement strategy. No need to turn every thought into a personal brand.
The internet used to feel like a collection of places made by actual people. This is my attempt to keep a little of that alive.
