@asya @celli@octodon.social unicode is really letting us down

@yesterdaychild ty!! i will go watch as soon as i track down my headphones

@asya @celli@octodon.social *carefully wraps your head in cotton padding*

@yesterdaychild yes pls

@yesterdaychild which show(s)?

@asya oh nooooo not maybe abandoned WIPs

@twistylittlepassages a little sesame seed oil goes a long way also

@pixouls brown butter is p straightforward! and also very versatile

@pixouls yeah i love their 4 panel comics! I’d been coveting one for a while but 1) budgeting 2) their icon slots sell out so quick

@pixouls haha thank you!! it was a commission from @/heyheymomo who you shld def follow if you like the style :)

@ljwrites he’s clearly a BTS fan, if you switch to another one of their songs he’s liable to start playing it too 😆

@ljwrites yeah dreamwidth users are way to old and crotchety for visible changes unless its like, an Extremely obvious improvement

@ljwrites yeah I am v glad they’re getting so much refactor work done, even though I can’t see most of it! Or really especially because I can’t see most of it

@ljwrites biggest change is that the backend is no longer old enough to drink I think haha — a lot of site improvements they want to make have been blocked by the need to bring the site into the 21st century aparently

No obvious media improvements yet but the new page is modular so I’m sure adding one in is high on their list

@ljwrites yeah that’s true! They’re almost finished redoing their web editor btw (one can turn it on in beta now but it’s getting pushed site-wide soon)—tho I imagine posting via email will still be best for your setup

@ljwrites i still follow you on Dreamwidth! Your markdown auto-emailer sounds like a neat trick—I think DW does have some native crossposting support but afaik it’s only outbound. Which is a shame bc they do have support for collecting inbound RSS already, they just don’t let personal accounts syndicate that way

@soph_sol @Forestofglory yeah I’ve noticed the issue with pop culture holding onto debunked histories / historical logics far longer than necessary in a number of issues, not just China—but it’s always annoying haha

Thank you for the book rec!
