@KitRedgrave i really really want somebody to do something interesting with legends arceus but i've been watching the tag on AO3 since the game came out and there is just nothing there

there are some older fics which are good (for some reason johto fics tend to be better than the rest) but i think a lot of older fans don't write fic anymore and younger fandom just isn't as creative

do they not make kids read My Side of the Mountain in school these days anymore

Show thread

nothing like a video game series about nature and ecology to demonstrate that fanfic writers really only know how to write character dramas

i would love it if pokémon fans would actually engage with the text instead of doing normal fandom character tropefic

« Oh to be a wild woman living amongst wooper and having their smiley faces greet me upon waking. »

@maya mostly for me; the links and search engines are all things i use regularly

in particular i think it would be a bit weird and unexpected for somebody else to make that page their browser home page, even though it is mine. in an age of neocities and github pages they can easily just fork it and give it the links which would be useful to them

however i think you can learn interesting things about people by looking at the tools they use. so while i don't think other people will necessarily make extensive use of my homepage, i do think they can learn interesting things about me through it

@maya along the lines of Tim BL’s “the homepage doesn't need to be the landing page” i’ve been thinking of splitting off the useful components, maybe into a /Portal/, and making the root more fun/informative with things like current status, random quotes, maybe a word of the day, eventually small games, and that sort of thing

but it's not really a priority for me so i haven't fully mapped out exactly what it will look like

@maya i've been thinking about making changes to it but before i do, you may be interested in my homepage, go.kibi.family, in that it literally is what pops up when i open a new tab

@aescling “good straight person” is like saying “cool square”

cutest part of cat

“i don't really like her; i just feel if i stopped following her my timeline would get substantially less interesting”

@aescling okay, to raise it a little, it's better than neoliberal technocracy

instagram if you know i live in washington state then why the hell are you telling me to register to vote

maybe i will go sit in the sun for a bit so i don't get depression from being inside all the time

*steps outdoors* oh, it smells like smoke. nevermind

@coriander « The neighbor brought a suit against Wang, alleging that Yingning was a demon spirit. The county magistrate, who thought of Wang as an admirable man of talent and knew he was a scholar of sincere and honest intentions, determined that the old neighbor was making a false accusation, and was about to have him beaten as punishment. Wang interceded to have the sentence dropped, so the matter was cleared up and the neighbor released. »

@coriander if i remember correctly the neighbours try to sue the girl but the presiding official is just like, “no”

@coriander ANYWAY i think fucking a soggy knot because you thought it was the beautiful girl next door is a hell of a way to go out

@coriander but yeah chinese fiction (and like the language itself tbh) is both incredibly blunt and absolutely replete with subtext and i love both of these things

it does take some getting used to though; the first time i read a chinese ghost story i was just like “……that's it??” and it took reading quite a few of them before i started to Understand
