ideally i'd add a photo to every post

in an ideal world, every blogpost of mine would have a photo accompanying it. as you can see in the photo below, it's much nicer when the thumbnail for each post is a photo, rather than just a placeholder letter. 

some days i don't have a relevant photo to add. i guess i could just put an unrelated photo and specify "photo unrelated." or try a bit harder to see if any photos i have could, by some stretch of the imagination, be relevant. 

but you see, try being the operative word here. any extra trying means more friction, and i generally try to reduce any and all friction on the road to hitting publish. 

we'll see. perhaps as i get more comfortable with the process, adding a photo will feel less and less burdensome, such that i end up able to add one every day. i did also consider retroactively adding them to past posts, but something about that feels dishonest—i guess, again, i could just specify "photo added later."
