Kids this is a reminder to collect physical copies of your favorite media. Corporations will axe your favorite show/movie/book in front of its family and make it a felony to retrieve it. Have a library.

Going to start work on the website redesign tonight. Still kinda conflicted on how I'm gonna do it other than a vague idea of what I want.

I was never good at CSS, never good at Javascript, and even with a Drupal wizard to help, I could never figure it out the way I wanted, so I may just do straight HTML for it and steal CSS from other sites as needed (which is how we did it back in the day anyways).

I'm thinking of at least formatting it at 16:9. Right now, with the ST:TMP landing page as a test, I figured the best display would be a "Square" so reading it tall-and-thin was okay, and wide-and-short worked, too, but I had a lot of dead space. At 16:9, you'd need to read on a phone sideways, but that's how I do it anyways (although most of the rest of the world doesn't).

I'm old enough to remember when Yahoo! Groups unceremoniously nuked every single LGBT mailing list overnight, leaving people completely untethered from communities they had relied on and loved. When that happened, we got angry at Yahoo. And yet when people flee from Twitter, anger is directed at those "defectors". Twitter is not a country, and we were not its citizens. It is a corporation. If Twitter is driving people away, it's Twitter's fault. It's not our job to fix it. #noxp

@ami_angelwings Yuri is for everyone and can be by anyone and no one (not even me) should gatekeep media.

@ami_angelwings The idea of Kayfabe in Professional Wrestling needs to end. We all know it's fake, just treat it like any other show.

(forgetting the word "furry") oh yeah she's really into dogpunk

I think the Saturday Supercade writers had a huge task before them, worldbuilding for 8-bit arcade games

The world is awash in a poisonous tide: the irrational, the hateful, the greedy, the venal. I vow to push against it, in my words and in my actions, in my thoughts and in my deeds. As long as some of us are willing to fight, as long as we stand together, this tide can be turned.

once I referred to ñ as 'you know, the catgirl squiggle' on a discord and three Hispanic friends spent the rest of the day clowning on me

Inspired by Mastodon, my partner and I have gotten boosted.

When I'm an old lady I won't be knitting scarves for people's kids that they don't want, instead the kids will be scoffing at me constantly giving them hand-edited videos and they'll be rolling their eyes at why I don't just use AI like everybody else.

Seven years ago, a fellow named "MIDI_MAN" compiled 130,000 unique MIDI files by browsing a ton of sites, placing them into directories, and generally assembling years of MIDI music.

Now that collection (1gb compressed, 3.5gb uncompressed, 130,000 files for real!) is at the Internet Archive at this URL:
