Hello and welcome to my humble beacon on the web!

I am Michael, aka Flummic, and on this page, I want to help you explore my website without feeling lost.
Think of it as a compass to guide you through the main areas of this site.

Main Areas

Depending on your interests, these might be good starting points for your exploration:

Who I am: "/about"-Page
What I am doing: "/now"-Page
My Main-Topics: "/tags"-Page
All Posts & Pages: "/library"-Page
Featured Posts: "/featured"-Page
Favorite Things: "/shelf"-Page
Stay in the Loop: "/follow"-Page
Landing Page: flummic.com

Don't know what you are looking for?
Press the "Random" Button in the main navigation (top) and get taken to a surprise-read :)

Navigating this website

Since I personally tend to get lost, I am trying to provide you with tools that help you find your way around this website.
So, in addition to the usual main navigation bar at the top and the secondary navigation bar at the very bottom of each page, I’d also like to introduce you to my custom sidebar elements:

🧭 On most pages, you will find a "compass" in the right sidebar that points you in the right direction with additional information and helpful links (floating button in the bottom right on mobile).
This also includes an "Explore" Section with the most important links to navigate this website, which will bring you back to this page whenever necessary.

Note that the "Focus"-Button lets you hide most of the Site-UI for a calm, focused reading experience. Kind of like a zen mode :)

🗺️ On the left side, you will usually find a "map" that helps you get a quick overview of the "landscape" (fold-out button on the left on mobile).
This can either be a Table of Contents or a Control Panel that lets you search, sort, and filter the page's content.

Feel free to play around with them. It's like having a map and a compass in your pocket so you can always find your way.

Now, I hope you have fun wandering around here. Don't get lost... or do...
Whatever feels right!
