Hello!!!!!!!

Welcome to my website! It's still under construction (clearly), so some links might lead nowhere, and some pages may be placeholders. It isn't broken, it's just not done yet! Click some buttons, read some stuff. If you click 'Take me home!' at any point, you'll end up right back here.

Who am I?

My name is Ian! I'm a 19 year old woman in Australia, currently a student. I run this website and love to be pseudointellectual and schizopost on the internet! I also do a lot of other junk. So much art, and so much learning.
I write essays sometimes, but most of my time has been spent on art lately. I will pick it back up I promise!

Right now the only way to contact me is by leaving a note on my Neocities page (iantimate), which I check about once a week.

Interests and Current Obsessions:

★ Chernobyl; how it happened and its aftermath.
★ Making functional pottery. Recently set up a small home studio situation, but I've been making stuff with clay since I was 3.
★ Minecraft. I went like two years without playing because I thought it would be awful to set up on Linux, but it really wasn't. So much stuff has happened since caves and cliffs!!
★ Rollerskating. My sport of choice :)
★ Linux. Mostly trying to get iTunes fully functional even though it is a stupid app that I hate. I just wanna change what's on my iPod, man. Why does it keep exploding?? I don't know.

Why a website?

I believe very strongly that the internet should be a place for people, not for advertisers and megacorps. Current social media doesn't let me do what I want to do, and I dont feel good about using it. They're dopamine farms, adscapes and data scrapers. Yuck. With a website like this I have complete control of what information I do and do not share, and the format that it comes in. I don't really make it to be looked at, so it isn't the most intuitive.

Also
