if only there was a
https://originaltrilogy.com/posts page, that functioned exactly like https://originaltrilogy.com/subscriptions, but it simply removed the ‘subscriptions’ filter, and instead showed everything.and if only there was a way to view all the threads i have created, and that others have created. it seems dumb that my profile page doesn’t give me a way to find threads i created.
If Only…
A poem
If only the posts page were as “simple” as removing the subscriptions filter, and not a matter of creating completely new controllers, models, and views, designing a caching strategy so the database isn’t completely overwhelmed, writing a security model to make sure your private topics and posts don’t end up in a public space, and then testing it all across a myriad of devices and browsers
If only someone had thought of all this before, and desperately wanted to do it, but, you know, priorities, and life, and other stuff happened
If only everything we use had everything we wanted all at once, because nothing that exists took any time or effort to create
If only everything we desired were waiting for us in the exact moment we needed and wanted it
If only life were Amazon
If only

I’m going to ponder this philosophy further instead of writing code today.
