@Satsuma i don't remember if i've shared this one to you or not but it's good and involves people from [new york] visiting [england] https://archiveofourown.org/works/24266482

@wallhackio friendly voice: tech.lgbt and indiepocalypse.social are both pretty good i think; they probably have mastodon.social silenced but not blocked (the current situation here)

annoying voice: just follow them on rss!

@dtauvdiodr you can just tap the text to hide it!

also maybe the first time someone broke up with me and it wasn’t at all mutual? damn

december to late summer isn’t the longest relationship i’ve been in but when you consider that we did that TWICE…

does this mean that i wasn't over my ex all those previous months where i thought i was over my ex

does this mean that i am over my ex

am i… lonely?

i still haven't completed the pokédex; that will require catching at least one more shieldon

i can now report that the fanon thing which happens after you beat the game is entirely fanon

i did it i caught arceus

it took me like two days to catch the single shieldon i needed lol

The GlitchCat #SundayPost offers news and updates from our corner of the fediverse to yours.

This update covers the past two weeks, since I didn’t bother with one last Sunday!!

§ Current Events :—

• It is Public Domain Day here in the United States, and there are some very cool things which are now unencumbered with copyright here!

§ From Our Users :—

• @Lady continued work on her shrine-xslt static site generator, giving it rudimentary support for generating Atom feeds.

• @Lady also published a playlist of her favourite songs released in 2022.

• @aescling came out to her family and, semi‐relatedly, is in the process of moving, so be tolerant of any disruptions on the sysadminning side of things here.

§ Holidays and Observances :—

• 🍻 05 January is Twelfnight. In the Catholic tradition, this is the night before Epiphany, but in the English tradition, it is a night of partying to close out Yule. Great time to use up any partying leftovers from the holiday season!

• 👼 06 January is Twelfday, if you need a day for eating your king cake 🍰.

when they write “[character] realized” but what they really mean is “i just realized”

not missing you a lot, but enough

kind of person who publishes a fanwork on new years eve has strong correspondence with type of person who thinks it's okay to write nonsense so long as it sounds evocative

some terrible metaphors in the fic descriptions tonight
