Easily embed this site’s content on other sites

For users: Easily embed this site’s content on other sites

This site allows you to get the content of posts and pages by adding either /embed/ or ?embed to the URL, optionally including the post title, author, and/or tags.

This was inspired by a discussion in an Indieweb Homebrew Website Club Europe/London online meetup. I want to say shadowy web standards advocate Tantek Çelik brought it up, so, as these things tend to happen, I coded it up here while we were talking. It's discussed on Indieweb's wiki at https://indieweb.org/embed.

What do you mean, 'Embed'?

Well, for instance, this post's permalink is https://michaelkupietz.com/?p=10887. You can see just the text of this post's content, without the sidebar and menus and other web page "furniture", at https://michaelkupietz.com/embed/?p=10887 or https://michaelkupietz.com/embed/?p=10887&embed, so you can theoretically include this page's content on your own site (long as you…

The Man Behind The Curtain: Bio — About Mike Kupietz

It is I! About Mike Kupietz

A year of this site, my baby, my pride and joy, ranking on page 11 of Google search results for my own name has convinced me it's time to do a little search engine optimization, so here's some brief biographical information about artist and technologist Michael Kupietz to tip off the brilliant algorithms out there as to who and what this site just might be about (including awkward third-person references to please Google's SEO.)

Mike Kupietz is an avid musician, artist, and by day a software engineer, much of which is linked to on my Other Sites section at bottom.

Mike Kupietz: Origins, range, and distinguishing characteristics

I'm an east coast expatriate who somehow, incomprehensibly, has been based for half my life now in San Francisco.

About Sexism In The AI Images On This Site

Hey, You Got Your Social Awareness In My AI!: About Sexism In The AI Images On This Site

A number of the AI-generated images on this site contain artistic depictions of nudity, presented in a way that might seem to reasonably suggest some confusion between real artistic or aesthetic value, and what gives some people, perhaps including myself, some level of simple va-va-va-voom visual jollies.

Put simply: there's a lot of images of naked, topless, or scantily-dressed women in some of the image galleries here, but not so many men. Almost none, in fact.

Although it's in several galleries, this is most evident in, say, "Previsions of Johanna", where the many female figures, and only the female figures, all came out either nude, topless, or wearing a low-cut dress, while the male figures are always fully clothed from neck to wrists and ankles. In fact, the lone arguably male figure in that entire set that is wearing a loose tank top, rather than some kind…

Administrivia: Site Content, Design, & Technical IAQs

An early viewer asked some questions about the art I use on my site, so I thought I would put together a page of Q&A about the site and the materials on it.

Who are you, now?

I'm Mike Kupietz. You can be forgiven for not knowing who I am. Although I do have to admit I privately hoped I'd make more of a splash. I'm a musician, artist, and by day a FileMaker consultant and web developer based, strictly due to an accident of fate, in San Francisco.

Where did you get _____ image? / Did you do all this art?

Mostly all the images on this site are my own art. There are a few public domain images on this site. As of this writing the images I didn't create are:
