Oct. 28th, 2025 09:02 amSome days I think I have too much stuff in my pockets and ought to clear out my jacket, backpack, heavy work jeans, etc.
And some days I see TAKE AMERICA BACK IN 2024 bumper stickers plastered on street signs within arm's reach of a reasonably tall person like myself, and I remember that a good portion of the stuff in my various pockets is FRAGILE packing stickers and WARNING: BULLSHIT stickers of decent size and durability.
*wanders off humming cheerfully*

Database maintenance
Oct. 25th, 2025 08:42 amGood morning, afternoon, and evening!
We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)
I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.
Ta for now!

What would your pup’s band name be?

Oct. 23rd, 2025 10:36 amI use Tuta.de for my email hosting and I've downloaded the Tuta app for my email client. It's set to not show images by default, just placeholders.
I get a lot of email from RPG sellers of various types. I get a RIDICULOUS amount of email from political organizations.
I do not always look at the Sender part of the message first, as the Tuta client uses a smaller font for the sender and other information than most senders specify for their default body text. Some of the senders use VERY LARGE text for an eye-grab at the top of their emails before going on to the regular lettering.
All of which is a roundabout way to say that for a few gloriously entertaining seconds I thought I had an email from the people at the Women's March that began with “WE ARE THE FURY OF THE STORM AND THE PITILESS WRATH OF ENDLESS WINTER.”
Yet again, the world I see out of the corner of my eye is way more entertaining than what's there when I look at it directly.

Yuletide letter
Oct. 22nd, 2025 05:56 pmThank you so much for writing for me. I love Yuletide, one of my favorite parts of winter. I know how heavy these fandoms can be so if there's any darkness, add some light too. My favorite sorts of stories are missing moments, character studies and that feel as if they fit within the world of the canon.
I love all of these fandoms because of the depth of the worlds and the characters, I enjoy action and plot if it fits. When a writer can pull off a complex plot, I love it as that's something I'm not good at writing. If you choose to include sex and violence, I ask that if they're there; no rape/dubcon or torture. All of the ones I've asked for are from worlds with difficult aspects to them and I enjoy how the characters interact with and are changed by what's around them. Also even though I've only requested one or two characters, all of these canons revolve around large and complex casts, so please add others into the mix.

Oct. 22nd, 2025 03:23 pmTurns out you can reopen a closed Etsy shop almost any time you want as long as you make sure to back it up with an active credit card and renew all your listings. I've closed the shop, contacted the colo place to cancel my subscription, and informed the City of Boston that I am no longer in business and will not be renewing my permit this year.
