hey my name is jeredino lavagnino (silent g like lasagna), i'm an aspiring brand ambassador for Gorki List Serbian Liqueur and retired blogger (total career earnings and accolades: none) making a ploy to join the Content Creator Aristocracy, lest i be condemned to the Permanent Slop Consumer Underclass. i posted briefly on substack (zatsuon.substack.com) and longly on my artisanal hand-coded indie web personal site (suboptimalism.neocities.org) featuring literary criticism, travels, drunken anime reviews, etc.

i'm a seasoned veteran of the "living at lighthaven for a month while having to post daily" circuit; two months ago i did a tour of duty as a resident at Inkhaven, basically plzdontkillus but for blogging - us "inkies" have been calling PDKU "slophaven". i distinguished myself in several ways: i predicted Scott Alexander's whereabouts, took vyvanse for the first time and wrote the longest post of anybody, scored an autograph and podcast appearance from writer Bavitz, and came closest to getting kicked out. i may also have been the first outsider to find out about plzdontkillus - i stumbled upon a stray printout of the PDKU website by the lighthaven printer.

writing is kinda played out (the post-modernists saw to that); meanwhile video is comparatively young. i'm bursting with video ideas. i've never really used AI, mostly because i'm stubbornly stingy about subscriptions. my p(doom) has increased from 0 to 0.01. my #1 filmmaking inspiration is Werner Herzog. see everyone in the Dirty Berk soon!
