my problem is i'm actually a lore and worldbuilding and folklore nerd but that doesn't have good representation on AO3 and the places where it does have good representation i wouldn't touch with a 10-foot pole

« “Want a quick blowjob sexy?” Link smiled and nodded. » zelda is a great fandom because your generic teenage smutfic author’s inept ability to describe how people engage with sex happens to also be how Link canonically engages with everything

titled “Zelda smut” but it's about Link

apparently for October this instance is doing pokémon

« Protests were traditionally just one tool in activist campaigns to pressure governments, alongside back-room negotiations with political leaders or alliance-building with powerful actors. The use of social media, by channeling popular energy away from such organizing, means that mass protest is now often the only tool, and typically ineffective on its own. »

« A protest does not have power just because many people get together in one place. Rather, a protest has power insofar as it signals the underlying capacity of the forces it represents. »

i would much rather somebody take my code and extend it and then let me know, so that i could review the extensions and make my own determination on whether or how to incorporate them into the original codebase, than someone send me an MR

share recipes, share patches, write code you can use today and then use it

i would like to collaborate with people in a way which is wholly unlike github

i want to be doing things not sleeping

« With the implementation of the Belt and Road strategy, especially the launch of Chinese Language Resources Protection Project by the Ministry of Education and the State Language Commission in 2015, a strong impetus is given to the rescue and protection of minority languages. The Jinping dialect of the Dai languages was included in the 2015 language preservation project and the project was completed. This is the first time that this dialect has been approved as a special research project. In May 2019, with the support of the Jinping County Party Committee and the county government, the Jinping County Cultural Centre hosted the first Jinping Dai writing system standardization seminar, discussing the normalization, standardization and informatization of the Jinping Dai writing system. Experts from the Office of the Steering Committee for Ethnic Minority Languages in Yunnan Province, Yunnan Minzu University and other Dai experts and scholars from Honghe Prefecture reached a consensus on how to solve the problems of irregularities in Jinping Dai writing system and inconsistencies between the written and spoken languages, and initial results were achieved in the standardization process. »

not sure this will get accepted in its current state but i like it https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2022/22209-wuyue-zhenxing-tu-fu.pdf

and this all really comes down to good initial design and the longevity guarantees baked into javascript. maintenance costs are virtually nonexistent because of lightweight modular design and good OPP/duck typing practices, and a programming language with a rigid standardization process that never breaks old code

it's not even like a lot of code necessarily but even ignoring the vast size of my github archives the things i am actively piecing together over on gitlab are an awful lot of power for a system which has one user who is mostly coding things for her personal websites

i love that i am constantly finding new things i can make with things that i made but it's also kind of scary the complexity of some of the stuff i'm building where every single line of code is written and maintained by me

“It sounds good until you search for ‘kelp’ and get 5 million pictures of kelp when you’re just looking for a book… and they all look the same unless you know about kelp.”
