theme two: airlock by ebrothemes

live previews: (one) (two) / install: (github)

this theme was designed around wanting a simple theme with only 2 colors and options for a couple photos in the sidebars, that also supports photosets with a carousel lightbox (ideal for gifsets) and has a night mode toggle. i'm really happy with it, and it definitely works a lot better than my past themes/pages. it should work well for both text-heavy and photo-heavy blogs.

features:

responsive

NPF post support

day/night mode toggle

2 custom colors (day/night mode colors can be different)

540px posts (option for 400px, 450px, and 500px, but it was designed at and works best with 540px)

custom text like and reblog buttons

optional photo in right sidebar

8 body font options with even more customization options for font size and heading fonts

up to 4 custom links

carousel lightbox for photosets

Very niche subject, but the more I replay old puzzle games, the more I reflect on what makes for Good Puzzle Design. And the more I think about Good Puzzle Design, the more I realize The King in Yellow from DAWTDE is complete ASS at designing puzzles.

[path-of-paint]

I assume it's because his puzzles require you to do an independent in depth research on a bunch of completely random subjects BEFORE you enter the puzzles or else they will become unsolvable?

One project three sqares:

1. Unravel an unsatisfactory project

2. Freehand

3. Use the very nice but fiddly and time consuming finishing technique

Originaly I made the loop scarf about six (time runs) years ago. I was very happy with the look but I had to always pull that long tube over my head and I found that this - surprise - really ruined my hair.

So I unraveled it and trying to keep a similar feel made something up.

The ruffles on the finishing edge are made by knitting three stitches from one, enforcing the edge so it will Not roll inward and finishing with an i-cord. (And yes that edge took me as much time AS the rest of the shawl)

Knit ruffle edges are so intense, they take up so much project time (and material!) So worth it though. Your shawl looks so cozy and comfortable, I love the color gradient, and the ruffle finishes it off perfectly. Great work :)

MINNOW PIN! TINY SILVER FISHIE! I'm in love with how these turned out. I want to wear like 10 on a jacket and have a school of fish with me wherever I go. Hard to photograph but they look amazing in person! Sometimes a simple design really stands out~~~~ In my shop!

What if you miss your best friend - your friend, can you even call him a best friend when it's been years? - so much that you play in the old world you used to share. You figure out how to get the old texture pack back. What if weird things started happening but you miss him so much that you keep going and going and going and fuck you're absolutely terrified the more and more you explore and search for him.

What if there's a glimmer of hope that you can see him again. So even though you're absolutely scared shitless every time something strange happens, as more and more things chase you into the ever darker corners of this weird maybe-horror-map-maybe-not, you still try.

You've never tried this hard in your life. You're just not built to do this. You only human. You forget to check up on friends and get trapped in pre-calculus homework hell - but this time. You try.

"Andrew if you're reading this"

"You got me buddy."

Fuck, you're trying.

And what if you learn you've started trying, far too late.

What do you do then?

Doodle duuuuuump. Mostly me studying this guy under a microscope and making use of my special interest in ornithology for something that has nothing to do with ornithology

Everyone say thank you to trans femmes for showing us a version of femininity born from joy and desire instead of just through coercion

Everyone say thank you to trans mascs for showing us a version of masculinity born from joy and desire instead of just through coercion

Everyone say thank you to all people outside of the cis gender binary for showing us a version of gender born from joy and desire instead of just through a simple frame work in which our oppressor have used to kill, erase, and censor us.

Thank you for showing us the existence of a history before and a future ahead.
