Trans women are women! Trans men are men! Trans rights are human rights!
I am human and therefore make mistakes. Be kind. If you find a mistake I'd be glad to hear from you. You can write an email to hello [-at-] theresmiling [dot] eu.
I use a tiny amount of Java Script on this site, namely for the "top" buttons that appear in the bottom left corner when you scroll down a page. This whole site is completely usable without it.

There's a new blog post allAbout my name.
I frequently update my Flowergame plants and/ or my Pixel Cat's End not-cats on theGamespage, and I don't think I'll post about it here every time.
Also, look at the top of the page. I made a trans pride coloured statement about trans rights. Fits neatly next to the Fight Fascism! image, don't you think? Did you know there's a link behind that image? Why not click it?

I did some work on theLinkspage: I restructured the Star Trek section a little, fixed some typos and descriptions here and there, added new links, and marked them with a New!. I still have a lot to do on that page, like add more links, and find a better way to sort them all. But one step at a time. We're not in a rush here.
08.april.2025
I've made some changes to theSammelsuriumpage: I turned the Flowergame card into its own page, and added some moreGamesto it. I updated what I'm currently into on myAbout me, added a link and made some text changes to theLinks, and made some more very minor changes here and there, like fixing typos and such. Last time I forgot to mention that I have a404 error pageagain, which I changed a little in looks and words.
24.march.2025
New blog post, and my first one in my native language of German: I think about how a good web could look like.
13.march.2025
I added a page for mywriting. That is poetry for now, and maybe prose later. It's filed underSammelsurium. There's also anew blogabout how I want to change my social media use.
08.march.2025
I have a favicon now! It will probably change it in the not so distant future though, once I figured out what I really want up there. I also made the RSS feed I have for my blog autodetectable. Thanks to Shellsharks for the suggestion and help with that! There's also the info now above that I am using a bit of JavaScript on this site.
05.march.2025
I added the pageSammelsurium, where I'll collect single pages and other things. I also added aSitemap. It does not look like I want it to yet, but it's there and that's important. Finally, I put the change-log (this very thing right here) in a scrollable box. Do you like it?
01.march.2025
I cleaned up the HTML and CSS of myStar Trek: Discovery re-watchsection. I also added a custom font for it, which fans of the show will recognise. I also finally finished re-watching season 5 and added that page. Beware of spoilers!!
25.february.2025
I updated the links page: shuffled some sections around and added links, particularly to the newSmall Websection.
18.february.2025
I cleaned up the HTML and CSS even more since the last update. I mainly made the font size a little bigger and changed the margins of the main text block. I also added some links and will continue to do so without announcing it here every time I do.
08.february.2025
Big CSS update. Barely visible, but I did quite a bit of work. All thanks to Kevin Powell and his great YouTube series called "HTML & CSS for Absolute Beginners". However, while grid made my photos work better in my blog posts when the view port is small, I have now a new issue of a huge gap between text and image when the viewport is wide. I think it has to do with the way I set up the grid-template-columns, but do not know enough yet to fix that. Though eventually I will tackle that one too. There are more things I want to update and do better in the stylesheet, but for now it's ok as it is. After all, this is a hobby project, I am allowed to take my time.
Other small updated around the site: Links, Currently..., fixed some typos, etc.
21.december.2024
Updated the Currently... section on the About Me page and added the beautiful "Fight Fascism" image in the top right. There's a link behind it, so don't forget to click it!
12.october.2024
Updated the Currently... section on the About Me page, added a few links to the Links page, tweaked some text here and there, and started to clean up the HTML using a new programme (VS Code instead of Notepad++).
25.july.2024
Updated the Currently... section on the About Me page, added a new blog post, and added a link or two to the Links page.
13.july.2024
Sometimes there are months between updates, and sometimes only days... I have added a section about where my internet name "theresmiling" comes from to the About page. There's also a new blog post.
10.july.2024
Some changes on theabout mepage: I changed the intro text, added audio files with pronunciations of my name and nick name, and updated the "Currently..." list, which was horribly out of date.
04.may.2024
I updated thelinkspage with links to Notepad++ and Neocities (which are what I use to make and host this website). I also posted a new blog with a loooooong list of (almost) all the tings I've ever been interested in. That's it. Just the list.
31.march.2024
I updated thelinkspage with some more Star Trek related links and single other links like to friends' websites. In theDISCO re-watchsection I completed my notes forseason 3and added all ofseason 4. Thescheduleis updated with dates and episode titles for the upcomoing season 5.
10.march.2024
I added a "Links" page. It's already long, but it will only become longer and longer in the future. I'm nowhere near to done. I have also added a "Currently" section to the "About Me" page. I didn't want to make it a whole separate page as I don't want to add a lot to it. It's just a list with a few things I am into at the moment.
17.february.2024
You'll now find a link to my Discovery re-watch in the nav bar above. I added more notes on Discovery episodes; season 2 is now complete.A new blog post is... well, posted. This time I talk about how you can start a journal of any kind, even, and especially, if you always wanted to but never knew how. Besides in the fediverse I can also be reached by e-mail now. You find the adress on the about me page as well as under each blog post from now on.
10.november.2023
I am currently re-watching Star Trek: Discovery and made a section just for that. It's got a different colour scheme, but the design is the same as with this part of my website. -->Let's Fly!
29.october.2023
I switched fediverse servers, therefore I updated my links on the about me page. You can now contact me through@theresmiling@ibe.social
11.april.2023
You can now subscribe to my blog viarss. For now the link to the feed is only on all the blog pages. And here in this very update. I wanted to get it up, I worry about the actual position and design of these things later. It's also not looking as I want it to in my feedreader, but at least it's working for me. Please tell me if it is not for you! I also updated the little intro text at the top.
05.april.2023
I added myblog. This also means that I have a real nav bar now. I'm not finished with it at all though. There are some things I want to do but need to learn first. However, for now it's ok. I will not update this section with every blog post I make. It is only for general site updates.
01.april.2023
Fixed some typos and made external links open in a new tab instead of the current one. Added a couple of links to theadditional resourceslist on theabout mepage.
26.march.2023
Complete re-design of the home page, as well as added an about me page.
