Study Stress?
While my study deadline has been creeping closer after a few extensions due to past mental health issues, I am taking it all fairly calmly. I've learned to avoid stressing about things and just keep pushing forward. Perhaps, maybe there's some subconscious stress? My body does appear to feel a bit of unease.
I'm almost there, but finalizing the exam plan and taking the exams themselves might push me right up against the deadline, or even past it, depending on the examiner's availability. My employer, who generously covers the study costs, has a firm deadline of June 1st, diploma or no diploma.
Given that, I'm not giving up when I'm so close to finishing. If necessary, I might consider extending it a month or two at my expense. I hope this will be possible…
To take the edge off and continue with the study with a fresh boost, I plan to go away for a weekend. Perhaps this might help me feel less uneasy.

Arc Browser uninstalled; privacy concerns
After trying the Arc Browser on Windows; I decided to remove it. I like it, but I dislike it as well. The new user interface and ease of use are excellent, but the browser does not go well with my privacy concerns. So, I'll go back to using Firefox or Librewolf again; for some reason, I tend to switch between them.
For example, the Arc Browser doesn't have anti-fingerprinting features. It appears that it pings back to multiple trackers as well?

Bearblog microblog-style notes page
Since I am not a great writer, I decided to add a notes page. Just the way I like it, easy and simple.
I managed to separate my blog posts and shorter, microblog-style notes on my Bearblog. It took some CSS hackery to get the notes looking just right, well almost. I'm not great at CSS, but what works, works. ;)
Guess there are plenty of possibilities on Bearblog. So far, I'm loving it. <3
Extreme short how-to: add page, add embed posts snippet, add class_name notes, CSS at https://pastebin.yeechie.one
