Reading

You make everything so clear by fictionallemons

Writing

Stalled, but finally dived back into the second chapter of Profane and fixed some shit so I can continue.

Two steps forward, one step back 🙄

Watching

Somehow I stumbled across the Yellowstone prequels without knowing they were Yellowstone prequels. Devoured 1883, and now I'm watching 1923. I maybe also acquired Yellowstone season 1...

Fandom

International Fanworks day is coming up. See what's happening here.

Social Media

Twitter turned off the API and locked everyone out 🤣 Mastodon signups rocketed as a result.

---

There's fediverse drama over the HP^* game, with a prominent masto instance shutting down over harassment after the admin refused to ban people tooting about the game. Sure, he had a untidy meltdown in the process, but based on reports, it's not terribly surprising. Seriously, people, hate does not fix hate.

*JKR sucks

Website Updates

I'm moving these roundups back to my website. I've got a handle on dealing with blog posts in 11ty now, and I've got RSS down, so if any DWers are missing the roundups they can sub to my feed using DW or any other feed reader.

I'm streamlining my social media, so this may be the last roundup I post to DW. I'll also be posting them to the fediverse, you can find me here.

Somehow I stumbled across the Yellowstone prequels without knowing they were Yellowstone prequels. -- SO funny because I was just talking to my best friend yesterday and she did the same thing! I was asking what she was watching and she was like "Oh I started these shows and turns out they're prequels??"

Right 🤣 like I get my TV from cough piratey places and I like period dramas so that happened while everyone else on the Internet was talking about Yellowstone and I ignored it cos its not my usual thing...

So anyway now I'm watching Yellowstone 😂
