hey hi hello!! (wagging my tail and jumping at you) i'm dakota and this is my happy little corner of the internet! i took up neocities as a way to express my creativity and interests without worrying about building an audience, so sorry if my closed off profile seems kinda antisocial. i love people!! i like dogs, hogs, robots and lego and i'm a hardcore gamer/playstation fan with a lot of virtual experiences to share. expect pages on game stuff, alterhuman and fictionkin stuff, pig stuff, dog stuff, tech stuff, and lots and lots of lego!!
lego has a special place in my heart for sticking by me through a tough time in my life! it's encouraged me to be creative, be analytical, and be unashamed of the things that make me happy!! more than a toy or a bunch of shows that i like, it's a buddy of mine!
one kinda important thing to note is that i'm a disabled coder. my site isn't gonna be groundbreaking levels of awesome just because i'm a tactile/visual learner and it's taken me a hot minute to even figure out how divs work!! but don't worry about me - i'm still having tons of fun and i'm excited to share whatever i can create! in fact, i've even made some simple code bases for my fellow pokers and prodders! go me!!
i'm also a digital artist and a collaborative story writer, but i probably won't be posting much of that here. like i said, i want this site to be full of casual fun!! it's not a portfolio, it's an infodump!
all code on this site is written by me with the help of my big brained buddy anuw. feel free to peek at the source and remix things you like! just please don't steal the graphics i drew, edited myself or paid for.
lego battles ninjago sprites ripped, edited and animated by me!
updates
16/06/23 ah, a big big break... somebody might be wondering where i'm at!! well, i'm at real life.org sorting out some big big updates for me! new computer, new therapist, new meds for my funky nose - don't know when i'll have the time to do site stuff, but here's hoping i'm happy when i get back!

04/08/22 deleted all the pages on my site (the ones with the yoinked codes on) to clear space for me to write some from scratch!! get HOYPE!
02/08/22 started figuring out html by mashing code together from sites and tumblrs i like! y'know, breaking them apart and putting them back together! maybe not the best way to learn, but it's the only way i got. tutorial sites are the WORST for disabled coders like me!
