Researching/writing stuff based in ancient greek mythos is lowk terrifying because almost all of them have versions made where they commit unspeakable horrors (the nicest thing that most Olympian gods commit is tax fraud) 🥀
a lil’ advice for reading: start the song at the minute 1:37 and you can read it all from left to right~
here we are. I’ve been thinking about this non-stop, thanks to @jintaka-hane and her Northern Star fic, that I absolutely recommend if you love this… dino man without love.
oh, I procrastinated this so damn much, artblock was making me thinking that I didn’t have the basics to do an elaborated comic for this. and it’s not wrong: this is a hobby in the end, and I’m learning to draw things step by step, without being an art student. so I don’t have the right basics, yeah, but that doesn’t mean I should stop trying ☺️
I may have read this fic five or six times by now. and this song DAMN THIS SONG. I love it. and I think it represents Drake a lot. it’s so beautiful and… melancholic. 💙
@pandora-writes-one-piece @armiliadawn @lxshoxk @fanaticsnail @thetempleofthemasaigoddess because it’s Drake 💙
In the wake of the TikTok ban and revival as a mouthpiece for fascist propaganda, as well as the downfall of Twitter and Facebook/Facebook-owned platforms to the same evils, I think now is a better time than ever to say LEARN HTML!!! FREE YOURSELVES FROM THE SHACKLES OF MAJOR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS AND EMBRACE THE INDIE WEB!!!
You can host a website on Neocities for free as long as it's under 1GB (which is a LOT more than it sounds like let me tell you) but if that's not enough you can get 50GB of space (and a variety of other perks) for only $5 a month.
Create and surf awesome websites for free.
And if you can't/don't want to pay for the extra space, sites like File Garden and Catbox let you host files for free that you can easily link into NeoCities pages (I do this to host videos on mine!) (It also lets you share files NeoCities wouldn't let you upload for free anyways, this is how I upload the .zip files for my 3DS themes on my site.)
Host your files with decency.
The cutest free file host you've ever seen

Struggling to find independent web pages that cater to your interests via major search engines? I've got you covered. Marginalia and Wiby are search engines that specifically prioritize non-commercial content. Marginalia also has filters that let you search for more specific categories of website, like wikis, blogs, academia, forums, and vintage sites.
Marginalia Search is a small independent do-it-yourself search engine for surprising but content-rich websites that never ask you to accept
Wiby is a search engine for older style pages, lightweight and based on a subject of interest. Building a web more reminiscent of the early
Maybe you wanna log off the modern internet landscape altogether and step back into the pre-social media web altogether, well, Protoweb lets you do just that. It's a proxy service for older browsers (or really just any browser that supports HTTP, but that's mostly old browsers now anyways) that lets you visit restored snapshots of vintage websites.
With ProtoWeb, you can browse the web like it's 1995!
Protoweb has a lot of Geocities content archived, but if you're interested in that you can find even more old Geocities sites over on the Geocities Gallery

And really this is just general tip-of-the-iceberg stuff. If you dig a little deeper you can find loads more interesting stuff out there.
The internet doesn't have to be a miserable place full of nothing but doomposting and targeted ads. The first step to making it less miserable is for YOU, yes YOU, to quit spending all your time on it looking at the handful of miserable websites big tech wants you to spend all your time on.
