PreemChrome is a curated and cultivated digital garden maintained by SynAck. It’s not a “blog” in the traditional sense of the word like most people might be used to insofar as this space isn’t really a chronological ordering of thoughts. Rather, this is a place that I can throw out half-baked thoughts, screeds, manifestos, and oddities and then cultivate them over time. Some of them might never get past the “half-baked” stage; some of them will eventually become so fully-baked as to evoke the smell of homemade bread in one’s mind as they read them. The point is, there will be no chronological ordering of either posts or updates; either one of those things could happen at any time. It’s all part of my nefarious plan to keep you coming back for more.
