march report
Mar. 1st, 2026 08:42 pmforced to redo my RSS feeds bc my reader isn't working right. Theoretically, this would be my chance to stick it all onto my Dreamwidth reading page for convenience and to get me more active here... but i'm not feeling it so instead you're just getting this notice. sorry.
i've gotten back into Fate Hollow Ataraxia, really enjoying it. Something about the way Medusa's backstory is handled really reminds me of how Wheel of Time handles retold myths, some kind of mixture of intentional subversion and "I'm using this cool bit of scholarship, which may or may not be accurate, as the basis of my retelling." Makes for some cool material, but now i'm curious where the writers are getting their inspiration.
I still want to make a post about the No ICE in Minnesota bundle bc there's a lot of cool stuff there, just gotta muster the motivation
how are y'all, how's things
classic literature is actually fun!
Feb. 27th, 2026 05:15 pmFinding Standard Ebooks exposed me to a whole new world though. Highly recommend for any book that's out of copyright.

Using My Neos: A Quick & Dirty Guide
Feb. 22nd, 2026 07:21 pmPlease keep in mind that, if you use any of these incorrectly, I won't be upset! I appreciate the effort itself deeply. And, if you prefer to use more well-known pronouns for me, you can use alternating he/she.
Fae/faer
Replace "she" with "fae". Replace "her" with "faer". Replace "hers" with "faers". Replace "herself" with "faerself".
"She is very passionate. I met her recently. Is that her computer? She told me that it was hers. She prefers to do things by herself."
"Fae is very passionate. I met faer recently. Is that faer computer? Fae told me that it was faers. Fae prefers to do things by faerself."
That set is the most unique in its usage, because it is the only set that I use that is not "nounself" (a neopronoun set which centers around using a noun). All of the rest of my pronouns follow an extremely similar format to each other.

RPG Maker Acquired (x4 combo)
Feb. 21st, 2026 02:12 pmAdding "figure out differences between RPG Maker 2000/2003/XP/MV" to my to-do list. And I suppose "actually make something with them" too, that would also be good to do.
it was a really good deal
