my current obsessions
From music habits to political insistences to fictional characters, some things wander in my head every day or trap me in their halos in a strange way. ヽ(^‥^=ゞ)
- Lana Del Rey: My favorite singer and songwriter, characterized by the melancholy, introspectiveness, and cinematic quality in her art. Ultraviolence is my favorite album from her.
- Radical feminism: The subset of feminism that aims to liberate women and marginalized communities from the patriarchy, the oppressive and entrenched system that benefits men and exploits other identities. It contrasts with liberal feminism and criticizes the systemic reality. -* see note!
- Queer pride: The movement of resistance against homophobia and celebration of diverse self-expression.
- Tuxedo Sam: A fictional but very silly, cute, and fashionable penguin - the most unserious list item here. He's in the favicon, and he owns 365 bow ties!
a note on radical feminism ‼⊹
I acknowledge that radical feminism has problematic connotations of transphobia and a lack of intersectionality. In my lexicon, "radical" describes views on society that focus on the root of oppression and demand structural change.
When I desire more specificity, I identify as an anarcha-feminist because it relates better to my overall views of anarchism - in opposition to the prevalent undervaluation of feminist concerns. I firmly support transgender inclusion and queer liberation, along with the total liberation of all peoples.
Misogyny is very relevant, even among leftist circles. Some men don't even see the patriarchy as a valid system but merely a distraction from the real struggle, namely the class struggle. Sincerely, such a thought pattern resembles a means to silence women as long as they've been throughout history and appeals to the assumption that either the working class or women overall are incapable of understanding the complex nature of oppression.
I believe that centering female and queer oppression is more than necessary today and that such an approach is essential to battle not only misogyny, homophobia, and transphobia, but also capitalism itself. While it's impossible for women and queer people to liberate themselves under capitalism, an authoritarian revolution doesn't guarantee the end of the patriarchy, white supremacy, or State.
Finally, I'm a learning feminist and just as interested in politics as an ordinary high schooler would be. My blog posts on feminism claim definitely no expertise and mostly draw from my lived experiences. Each one is an attempt to lay out my progressing resistance as long as we queer teenagers continue to survive.
We could get lost in the purple rain,
Talk about the good old days.
I could get drunk on some pink champagne,
Lost in the purple haze.

Read about my queer life, bigotry's impacts on me, random analyses of social orders, commentaries, and silly reviews... („• ֊ •„)

You caught me once.
Maybe on the flipside, I could catch you again.

dancing jovial penguin ♡

Hello! I'm dancing jovial penguin (any pronouns), an introverted gay demiboy teenager with a passion for computer science, activism, art, and analyzing my problems! This is my personal website. (´。• ω •。`) ♡
a short background ❀˖°.
On May 31st, 2025 I created this website. I've always loved crafting on the web with my long (or at least intensive) history of coding even as a teenager. The next day would signal the beginning of Pride Month, so that motivated me to put my creativity into work.
Having found out about Neocities while scrolling on Pinterest, I thought it was appealing because of the residing websites' abundance of self-expression and its ability to host websites for free while listing it among many others. Finally, I decided I would make a personal website like this and host it on Neocities.
Ever since, this place has become a vulnerable, personal space for me, my thoughts, and my likings. Neither is it for show nor a means of personal gain but everything I want it to be, everything I wish to be, and everything that I am. Half-cooked, repetitive, baseless, and maybe irrelevant but a representation of my survival journey - that's what it is. ヾ(≧∇≦)ゞ
what awaits you ⋆. 𐙚 ̊
I write out blog posts when I feel the urge to express my thoughts and feelings. They lie in the #blogs section. I usually enjoy contemplation about random topics or analyzing what at a specific moment concerns me or other people, so my blog posts might reflect these processes, too.
In the meantime, I divert from one topic of interest to another, which I try to immerse myself into. Find what I'm currently fixating on in #obsessions. Blog posts are central to creating the content of this website, so these interests, which I call obsessions, rightfully manifest themselves in #blogs.
As a huge fan of the letter J and penguins, I hopped on the lookout for adjectives starting with J, and jovial caught my eye. Despite being neither a penguin nor a cheerful dancer, I placed this adjective within dancing penguin to describe myself - the emergence of an online alias. I do love nicknames! See my other presence on various platforms in #socials.
On the bottom of every section lies a tiny purple Lana Del Rey lyric. Could I be worshipping her? Refrain from judging me for what's written here - it's understandable, yes, but I often get insecure! ヾ(。・ω・)シ
miscellaneous final thoughts ₊˚⊹ ᰔ
a little fun fact
Section-switching in this website was solely coded in CSS - the sidebar, how one can navigate through it, and the consequential page changes.
I fear there's no one specific reason for why I value this specific piece of information - regardless, nothing could stop me, obviously. In some online developer hangouts, I've seen the celebration of CSS implementations of certain functionalities where JS would be conventionally preferred. That had an impact.
the background image?
Better visible on a computer, the background image is something I've created on Krita in about 10 minutes or less. Krita is a free and open-source software for drawing, and it's lovely, so why not give it a chance and support it?
I wanted some graphics on my website rather than the plain pink, blue, and green alone. I love the rain, so why wouldn't it make a pleasant background image? Though, this instance was effortless to draw - I must admit.
farewell
The very final thought is that this website is mobile-friendly! Click the proud Nyan cat to toggle its animation play state and transparency level. It might still be somewhat distracting, so my apologies. (◕︿◕✿)

I guess they really got the best of us, didn't they?
They said that love was enough, but it wasn't.
The earth shattered, the sky opened.
The rain was fire, but we were wooden.
where else you can find me
And when you're scared, I'll be right here.
— Lana Del Rey, Cherry BlossomYou feel afraid, mommy is there.
It's a cruel, cruel world, but we don't care.
'Cause what we've got, we've got to share.
