Cajeck's Lair

Best viewed on desktop or laptop, full screen, with monitor resolution set to 1920 x 1080! All browsers BUT Internet Explorer 11 and KaiOS will work!

Welcome

This is my lair. Part coding project, part personal diary, part art and writing dump! Is there a single focused aim for this site? Not really! This is me, my interest in the old web, old technology, entertainment of the late 80s through to the early 00s, and my love of writing. Also The X-Files and My Little Pony. With some skulls and skeletons sprinkled on top. My pronouns are it/its/kin, but I accept they/them/kin. Occasionally I speak in third person. When I first started this site, I was using nominal gender pronouns (she/her), so pardon the mixed language.

Recent Updates

11/12/25 - It's aware that certain sections of the site appear to be loading more slowly. It is not sure what is causing this. It MAY be related to its use of javascript on some pages, including document.write() or maybe even its traffic tracker script from With Cabin. It's not sure. It will add this to the to-do list along with some more info. Other than abysmal load times on some pages, the site seems to still be more or less functional. It's sorry for the inconvenience! (also, it added its pronouns to the above welcome message. It still needs to update its about page, it knows...)

10/31/25 - Happy Halloween! 🎃 There's a new blog post available. This is a letter to codependents. It may do a more "Halloween"-centric post later today after trick 'r treating with the cubs.
7/24/25 - A new blog post is up. <3

6/27/25 - Holy crap it's still around! It logged on to discover an issue with its SCM player. So it switched to wikplayer instead and the problem seems fixed. It also added four new songs to the playlist! Look forward to a new blog post soon.

12/16/24 - There's a new blog post as well as a ton of new artwork in the digital, traditional, and (the recently added) scrap artwork galleries.

12/1/24 - The site lives! There's a new blog post, as well as new original lyrics featured on the songs page. I've fixed a broken link on the links page, as well as added my Bluesky profile. Look forward to new artwork soon! I just need to edit and upload the photos. I also have a conlang I'm hoping to add to my worldbuilding section in the near future. Last thing I did was tweak the original nav sidebar a little.

2/20/24 - Took a major step both for my site and also for my novel project. I've added a section of the site dedicated to Eikasia, my fantasy setting, and its lore. I have a lot more to add, but this will do for a start.

2/14/24 - I've made some fundamental changes to the site. The new font sitewide (minus the review and story pages) will be Verdana, to improve readability. I've also decided to eliminate the rotating background images for a more uniform aesthetic. I'll be using this dark skull background from sadgrl.online across most of the site. I've removed some of the images and text from the main page, and I'm considering slimming down elsewhere to improve loadtimes. I may tool around some more with my stylesheet until I feel like everything looks good. Also added a cool new site to the Links page. I hope everyone's new year is going well. Oh, and happy Valentine's day! ❤

To-Do

Figure out what is causing the slower load times! Could be scripts, iframes, etc. The most affected pages are: songs, writing and reviews (actual content pages, and the index for the story page-- review index appears fine), twine games, the original art galleries. Everything else appears to be loading fine. If anything else is acting up, please let it know in an email or in the guestbook!
UPDATE: Kin may have narrowed the issue down to an external script related to one of its site rings. When next it has a chance, it'll do some more troubleshooting, but that seems a possible reason for the slower load times. If the issue persists, it will contact the other site owner, but for now, it looks like the issue isn't with Cajeck's Lair.
Add more accessibility to the site in general (better alt tags, more font options, etc.)
I'd like to do a showcase/gallery of my retro video game and retro PC collection! Most of it is in storage, so this may be sometime before I can get to it...
Add a chatbox - I may hold off on this, simply because my site lacks traffic and engagement atm.
As fine as this site layout has been, I'd like to make a site with more object layering, a maybe a three column layout with a header and footer.
