an explanation of my website.
aurabora.org is a simple website I have built using Astro that serves as the hub for my blogposts and a collection of resources i find to be particularly useful. Its use may grow overtime so be on the lookout for changes.
I often write "blogposts," an informal piece of writing that mostly exists for me to share my unfinished thoughts as I learn more.
Generally, there are two types of blogposts I tend to write:
Please keep in mind that these, at the end of the day, are informal pieces of writing, and I am not interested in treating them like academic writing.
Finally, I would like to say that my blogposts are a record of my growth and learning, and as such, I may not fully agree with everything I have written prior. This is, frankly speaking, a personal frustration of mine, but I cannot rewrite every blogpost I've ever written. I ask that you read each blogpost with a grain of salt, and, if you know me personally, perhaps talk with me about any doubts and critiques you may have.
I sometimes add any resources I found interesting that I used in my blogposts. Maybe at some point I'll expand this, but for now it's pretty limited.
I'm a college student studying Anthropology. I consider myself to be a highly well rounded person, however, with interests in many fields such as Philosophy, Politics, Gender Studies, Linguistics, Web Design, Linux Development and many, many more.
As a queer transgender person (she/they pronouns), I'm naturally interested in many of these fields that have shaped my own personal identity and continue to shape my existence within society.
My hopes for this website are to open your mind to other possibilities in life and for you to learn more. I hope everything included in this website encourages creativity and curiosity in its readers.
