        "html": "<p><strong>IndieWeb Carnival August 2025 : Colo(u)rs</strong></p><p>The <a href=\"https://openmentions.com/topics/indieweb/\">IndieWeb</a> Carnival for August 2025 is out, and the theme is colours. It is <a href=\"https://marisabel.nl/public/blog/IndieWeb_Carnival_August_2025_:_Colors\">hosted by Marisabel</a>.</p><p>Marisabel has asked five questions, so let\u2019s give them a go</p><p><strong>What shade lives in your bones?</strong></p><p>This one. It is hex code <a class=\"u-tag u-category\" href=\"https://node.lordmatt.co.uk/tag/ffffcc/\">#FFFFCC</a>. When I was younger, I found that this colour reduced reading strain, and it kind of became my go-to colour for highlights and background colour when I wanted less dyslexic interference.</p><p>A close second is #666 when I want a darkish colour and can\u2019t be bothered to think any deeper about it. The number of the beast is a good go-to grey.</p><p><strong>When has colour saved you?</strong></p><p>Only in the broadest sense has colour saved me per se. Like the green man says, walk \u2013 that sort of thing.</p><p><strong>Do you dream in technicolour or monochrome?</strong></p><p>My dreams are always full-colour cinematic epics. Check out my <a href=\"https://node.lordmatt.co.uk/tag/dreams/\">dream logs</a> for some ideas about the content of my dreams.</p><p><strong>What colours define your homeland? Your life?</strong></p><p>Red, White, and Blue are the colours of the Union Flag, but, unlike America, we don\u2019t tend to worship our flag. For a long time, our buses were always red, our police always blue, and\u2026 Nuh, I can\u2019t come up with something for white. Unless you count our hospitals, which seem to love white paint; UK hospitals are, of course, free at the point of use. The NHS saved my life with medication I could not have afforded even if I had a house to mortgage.</p><p><strong>Any meaning colour might have in your life!</strong></p><p>There are some colours which are important to my life.</p><ul><li>Black \u2013 I was a bit of a metal head crossed with a goth as a youth. Black is, therefore, part of my tribal (subculture) colours.</li><li>White \u2013 just because it contrasts easily with black.</li><li>Purple \u2013 see also goth.</li><li>Silver \u2013 as above, but more so.</li><li>Blue \u2013 because I am also a tech nerd.</li><li>Green \u2013 trees and plants are part of my soul.</li><li>Pale Yellow \u2013 I find it easier to read</li><li>Brown \u2013 this is my name and the colour of the drink of the gods \u2013 <a href=\"https://tea.isbrill.com/\">tea</a>!</li></ul><p>Yes, that is a horrendous colour palette.

        "text": "IndieWeb Carnival August 2025 : Colo(u)rs\n\nThe IndieWeb Carnival for August 2025 is out, and the theme is colours. It is hosted by Marisabel.\n\nMarisabel has asked five questions, so let\u2019s give them a go\n\nWhat shade lives in your bones?\n\nThis one. It is hex code #FFFFCC. When I was younger, I found that this colour reduced reading strain, and it kind of became my go-to colour for highlights and background colour when I wanted less dyslexic interference.\n\nA close second is #666 when I want a darkish colour and can\u2019t be bothered to think any deeper about it. The number of the beast is a good go-to grey.\n\nWhen has colour saved you?\n\nOnly in the broadest sense has colour saved me per se. Like the green man says, walk \u2013 that sort of thing.\n\nDo you dream in technicolour or monochrome?\n\nMy dreams are always full-colour cinematic epics. Check out my dream logs for some ideas about the content of my dreams.\n\nWhat colours define your homeland? Your life?\n\nRed, White, and Blue are the colours of the Union Flag, but, unlike America, we don\u2019t tend to worship our flag. For a long time, our buses were always red, our police always blue, and\u2026 Nuh, I can\u2019t come up with something for white. Unless you count our hospitals, which seem to love white paint; UK hospitals are, of course, free at the point of use. The NHS saved my life with medication I could not have afforded even if I had a house to mortgage.\n\nAny meaning colour might have in your life!\n\nThere are some colours which are important to my life.Black \u2013 I was a bit of a metal head crossed with a goth as a youth. Black is, therefore, part of my tribal (subculture) colours.White \u2013 just because it contrasts easily with black.Purple \u2013 see also goth.Silver \u2013 as above, but more so.Blue \u2013 because I am also a tech nerd.Green \u2013 trees and plants are part of my soul.Pale Yellow \u2013 I find it easier to readBrown \u2013 this is my name and the colour of the drink of the gods \u2013 tea!Yes, that is a horrendous colour palette. I dare you to try and make a nice-looking CSS style with it.\n\nOver to you\n\nWhat does colour mean to you?\n\n#666 #Carnival #color #colour #FFFFCC #IndieWeb"
