unrelatedly why does leslie fish have such a thing for kipling anyway

surprisingly not even a we-don't-pay-attention-to-firefox-support bug. it happens on chrome too.

i think if your front-end JS framework's documentation website don't manage to respond to navigation by putting me at the top of the new page instead of whatever scroll-position i was at in the previous page, that is maybe an indication i should ignore your front-end JS framework.

kingdom hearts should have had musical numbers (simple and clean, love it as i do, doesn't count)

wait giancarlo esposito was in do the right thing??? huh. i guess he was a good deal younger at that time

soliciting movie recommendations as i am home alone for the next couple of days and want something to put on the telly in the background (and/or more attentively watch, we'll see)

criteria:

• no christmas
• mild preference for not in the past decade or perhaps even this century
• stronger preference for not in the past like five years
• not generally a fan of action films because i'm bad at following action scenes; willing to make exceptions for very good films or ones with especially comprehensible action scenes
• english audio is kinda essential for the background-watching stuff but feel free to suggest films without it anyway
• excellent or influential films and trashy drek both welcomed, mediocre stuff less appealing.

#DecRecs
continuing yesterday's theme of cute little ways to put things out there on the web, i now suggest:

listography is a site that lets you make and share lists about yourself.

one of the people behind it, Lisa Nola, said about it: «Auto-biographical list-making is a pathway to rediscover memories, preserve stories, kickstart creative projects, visualize dreams, and keep a record of books, films, music, and all the other experiences that have transformed you.»

It's kind of an atypical approach to like, self-recording, self-processing, self-expression, whatever. But I think it's pretty charming. Maybe give it a try!

i would make a #zonelet myself but i'm bad at feeling like i have anything to say

gonna pick up #DecRecs again with some fun little web self-publishing and similar recs.

today I suggest Zonelets!

Zonelets is a cute little (very little) #blogging engine, intended to let people easily make their own little zone, and make their little zone theirs. You can use it anywhere you can upload HTML and javascript files (for example, you can freely host your little zonelet on neocities, which the quickstart suggests as a good way to begin). It's HTML-based, but try not to let that scare you, you don't need to know much at all to post to your zonelet, really that's more a matter of allowing you to tinker with and customize it.

I linked the quick start guide, but do check out the home page and home page (and maybe the FAQ if you're actually gonna use it hehe), too!

Zonelets was made by Marina Kittaka, whom you may know from the indie adventure games Anodyne, Anodyne 2: Return to Dust, Even the Ocean, and Sephonie that she and Melos Han-Tani made. Also from some stuff she did on her own but I'm not as familiar with it ^;
