I hid something on this site

August 8, 2026

Looks like you found the head of the trail. Keep going. Almost there. Something on this page burns hotter than the rest. So does one title in the sidebar. Congratulations! Hope you enjoyed the fire! 🔥 The fire isn't everything, though. One more click starts it over. When you've found and solved the real puzzle, you'll know.

There’s an easter egg on this site now! I’m not going to say where it is. (I sort of am. Um, that’s what the spoilers at the bottom are for. Which itself was a new feature addition.)

NASA hid 'Dare Mighty Things' in binary in this parachute. There's something hidden here too.

Hints first. It’s small. It’s on almost every page. It means something to me personally, so if you know me you can probably guess. Clicking it does something.

One hint: it’s nested, like those Russian stacking dolls. They keep opening long after you’d think they’ve stopped. (ashes aren’t the end of the game)

One more hint: When you’re lost in the woods and you find a cozy fire built by friendly and welcoming people, you don’t just warm your hands and wander off. You sit, you enjoy the company, and when it’s time to go to the next thing, you carry a light with you. What would you do first?

Spoilers #

• Where is it? The ankh at the bottom of most pages. Click it.
• Something happened. Now what? Click it again.
• Is that everything? No. Some letters burn brighter than others. Start with the oldest pages.
• Which pages have the letters? The sidebar lists every weblog post, newest at the top. Counting up from the bottom: the 1st, 1st again, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and 8th oldest. Two letters share the first post. Yes, that sequence.
• I found a word. Now what? It’s not just a word. “Speak, friend, and enter.” Addresses here look like jva.lol/word.
