about the site mascot




Milky is my site mascot. She was created on a whim years ago when some friends and I were creating cow girls. She was to be a throwaway design, but I quickly grew to love her. I developed her some and she became not only one of my favorite OCs, but a recognizable part of my "brand" when I was more involved in social media spaces.

Milky stands for everything I believe in - be cute! Be positive! And most importantly, be yourself!

about the site

Valentinely was launched in 2025 after spending a few years on Neocities and a short stint on Teacake! I decided to move hosts after being inspired by a friend that made the jump. I never created a site to gain an audience or popularity, I just wanted to have fun with amateur webdev and create something that I could use as a digital scrapbook for my life, hobbies, and interests. And that's what this place is: just a simple playground and loveletter to the things I enjoy and love!

My website is for myself! But I hope you enjoy exploring anyways.

"oldweb manifesto"

I just think having my own website is fun.
