Every six to eight weeks, go through your notes. If there’s anything in there that you haven’t looked at in the last six to eight week, delete it. Why? If you haven’t used that information already, you probably aren’t going to. Ever. The information might be out of date or you might stumble across a newer or fresher source.
You don’t want to become a digital hoarder. Why? As you collect more and more information, it becomes harder to part with it. You find ways to convince yourself that you’ll need that information for some reason. You’ll find ways to convince yourself that you’ll use it sometime in the future.
You won’t. Period.
An argument against noting everything down even if it's "just" digital and won't take up physical space.

One of the 'problems' of the smallweb is discovering new content. Algorithms on the big 4 social media are very good at serving up an uninterrupted stream of novelty. Without that, it can be hard to discover new things, or remember them. And as you tend to stumble across independent websites in unpredictable patterns, they can be very hard to rediscover if you suddenly need them.
The solution is to use your browser bookmarks!

Do a 3 card draw online! Gives meanings, but only for individual cards and not the combined message (as would be proper for Lenormand readings) so take with a grain of salt.
This is, frankly, insane. This is embarrassing. And the fact that these panelists said all this with their whole chest without understanding that—that we can’t answer your questions, that we will not reflect or generalize or strategize for the future, that we cannot imagine there is someone in the audience who doesn’t know the chronology of every Worldcon, that we refuse to do this labor if there’s a woman we can trust to handle it—speaks to how deep the problem goes. You, the people responsible for this: you should be embarrassed.

Reading cards in combinations is the cornerstone of the Lenormand way and is not really optional like it would be with other decks. Lenormand’s cards are stringed together like words in a sentence that flow seamlessly within a layout. That’s why the classical layouts are Tableaus where cards are read in many sentences and structures.
Etteilla (Jean-Baptiste Alliette) was a French cartomancer active in the 18th century. He was one of the first people to popularize a system of meanings for every card in the tarot deck, including upright and reversed meanings. The Etteilla system is the foundation for most divinatory tarot today, notably for the minor arcana of the famous Smith-Waite tarot deck.

On this site, I talk about cynicism, nostalgia, and digital culture. You’ll find unique digital lore here and other liminal strangeness. I want to highlight the downright weird millennial technology experience. Living through the birth of ubiquitous computing had both positive and negative aspects. I’m talking (mostly) about the 1990s and 2000s, when the internet was just beginning to take over our lives...
