Are you (not) a bot?We think you are! Contact me if you're human :) (forward me your user agent: mozilla/5.0 applewebkit/537.36 (khtml, like gecko; compatible; claudebot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com))

At this point in my life, I am:

  1. Building a more stable foundation for my future
    • Improving my health and building confidence
    • Planning and saving to go to University next year
      • Why is the labour market so brutal??? Oof. I am having such a hard time even planning for a job (hire me if u have an open position -> https://ari.lt/hire)
    • Exploring my purpose and what I want to do with my life
  2. Finishing my final year of high school
  3. Dealing with burnout. Like awful burnout :(
    • I'm so burnt out and ugh!!! I can't stop working though - I stagnated doing laborious optional things like writing blog posts, working on big personal projects, etc. prioritising the more urgent and important things but I'm feeling overwhelmed and anxious every day guh!!! 😭
  4. Living in Lithuania
  5. Struggling to update my blog more consistently (yeah I wonder why :'))
  6. Maintaining public infrastructure and services
  7. Learning!
    • Gymnasium 💔
    • Working with HTML, CSS, JavaScript alongside my stronger backend skills to have a better foundation in webdev
    • Continuing to expand my programming knowledge in Python, C, and shell scripting
    • Experimenting and "reinventing the wheel" as usual
  8. Building (im)practical solutions to (im)practical problems
  9. Caring for my cat Tina 🖤
  10. Participating in PetraPixel's IndieWeb contest
  11. Working on school stuff, including various programming-related competitions (again), ResearchSchool (2nd time!, soon to be enrolled again), and a brandos darbas (Lit. "Maturity Project", tr. Lithuanian, essentially a 2000-3000 word research paper. Commonly known as a graduation work, but it is completely optional)
  12. In the process of, finally, after 18 years of hell, having my identity as transgender recognised :D
  13. Meowomeowmeomowemwo :3

Current motto: $ yes AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
