    State of the Writer, April 2024!

    It's another boring one! I ain't wrote nothin'! :B

    It actually feels lately like I've been crawling out of a pit? So maybe there's a light ahead? But it's also blocked by Balatro lol somepony save me D:

    The only other thing relevant to this blog is that I've had notes for a vs. post sitting in my notes document for probably the entire month now, what is wrong with me? D:

    Fic recs, April 22nd: Jordan179 edition

    Once again, though a good bit late, I bring it upon myself to memorialize an author via reviews of their stories. Though this time, it's different, as I had no connection to Jordan179 and only learned of his passing (three years ago this month, coincidentally), from this post

    Another post about video games and Youtube and stuff

    If I'm going to waste time watching shit on Youtube, the least I can do is tell people about it. :P

    Ceave is a crazy Austrian with a love of video games and a head for philosophizing about them. Plus he really, really hates coins, no matter how tasty they may look.

    Do you like video games? How about philosophy?

    I like one of those things for sure, but no one combines the two better than a Youtuber named InfernalRamblings, a former professional game developer who now creates hour and a half long video essays about the meanings of video games and how they relate to the world today. Here's a few highlights, since this is now basically my only

argh (new site changes) · 10:52pm Jun 5th, 2017

Fimfiction killed one of my best jokes. D: See also: tagged story.

I have fixed this so it at least makes sense, but it doesn’t look right. :C It is now for-real fixed, thanks to Exuno! :D Will report further changes as things progress.

Aw, and you can’t hit ctrl-s to save a blog post now? D:

...You could ctrl+s to save a blog post before? Fuck, so many words lost for nothing. I’m an idiot.

Aw, rest in peace, Octascratch. You will be remembered for changing romance forever.

wait, what exactly did it change that makes this not work? still seems solid enough (if awkward, if you’re a crazy person who uses indent viewing)

Well, it would post, but yeah.

According to Dave_Bryant’s latest journal, and confirmed when I checked out OCTASCRATCH’s text, the new change that makes it so you can specify whether you want to see stories indented or double-spaced between paragraphs just sort of ignores all whitespace. And that includes both extra returns and ‘paragraphs’ that are just a single space, which is what I tried to use to fix before putting ellipses in. :C

you should be able to use a non-breaking-space-character, e.g. " " from what I’ve heard. Try copying that and let me know?

Huh, it shows no tagged story for me. Whups.

Aw, and you can’t hit ctrl-s to save a blog post now? D:

That was a thing? o.0

Only on the feed - which I have a ton of complaints and suggestions about, but I’m saving them up for now. Tagged story is still at the bottom of the actual post itself.

Knighty did this just to spite you, PP.

4560377
That’s a much better option than the strategy of hiding your ellipses with white text and hand-setting everything else to black text that I was thinking of.

okay, actually playing with it, it looks like a nbsp won’t count as a paragraph by itself, and neither will a bbcode tag, but combining a tag with an EMspace ( ) will. So, uh, [i] [/i] is your best bet.

Is that not just a space? O.o

(Also you apparently have to go immediately to the comment box when you reply to a comment, no more shift-click :C)

orly :O I will do this!

EDIT: Hooray, it’s fixed! :D

Well, I have to view it on a proper computer to be sure, but I think it ate most of my user page. :raritydespair:
I'm just hoping it's the mobile version being more streamlined.

Blog posts on your user page no longer show thumbnails for images. It is a sad day for wolves. :raritydespair:

Why is PresentPerfect suggesting that everypony should downhoof every comment he replies to?! It’s right up there in the header where you’re pointing to the downhoof icon... :pinkiegasp:

Rude. :trixieshiftleft:

How am I the only person who knew this? @_@

I dunno, I just found it out one day. :B Maybe it’s an itchy reflex, since it caused me to pre-post more than one journal...
