Apparently the new theme selection is broken on everything but Firefox on desktop. Troubleshooting that now.

Ah, and here I thought it was just my cache. Looking forward to poking around on Firefox when I'm home from work, then!

The way the images look in nerd mode is *slick*! Very fun, fixed on Edge (I should stop checking neocities on my work computer)

Thank you! It took a while to figure out the right combination of filters to make images green like that- thanks to https://codepen.io/sosuke/pen/Pjoqqp, but I still had to tweak from that starting point.
Catching up on poems after being busy for a while. "Open" is *such* a good encapsulation of that feeling, and I love the sounds in it. Very clattery poem. Very stiff. Wondering if final notes on a symphony is TMA-inspired or if it's just in the air these days. Enjoying seeing all the enthused pen-talk, too, as an outsider. :p

As much as I love TMA, that wasn't inspired by it. :P I just wanted to write about music and went feeling about for interesting comparisons.

I've shared a few with friends directly- my favorites were the ones on password safety and color scheme optimization. The first was well-explained and the second was something I'd never have thought to try (and the results are fantastic)!

yay, lovely ! iβll add you tonight. your site is v cool also ^)^
So!! Excited!! to read your work ;D
Your entry is so moving, and the end is so empowering and beautiful. I was especially struck by "this one curls up small and shuts up, waits for the world to leave (you have such a well-behaved kid!)" as well as the whole metaphor of carefully sewing up what was never truly lost. Just, wow.
Fun to see the first entry in yet another format, and excited to see where else your stuff goes. Definitely relate a lot to all of these musings & takes on skin.
