Guys i just saw the funniest web graphic of a frog on a unicycle. I think this will be big. They're calling him that boy.

I wrote a tutorial on how to set up a deviantArt-like art gallery on a neocities (or other static site) come check it out:

It was a lot of work to put my art gallery together and get it working, but because I didn't see literally anything on creating such a gallery (other than ready-made templates) I decided to write up a tutorial hoping it will help others who want to code a more robust art gallery that goes beyond just using a simple slideshow/lightbox. Each image is its own post, like how deviantArt works.

This is a draft of the page where I copied my existing posts just to fill up the gallery and see how it fits:

and this is what my individual post looks like:

If you want to stand up for transgender Canadians, then there's a petition to ask the federal government to repeal the acts signed into law that restrict transgender medical care for transgender youth:

You need only be a resident of Canada, not a citizen to sign. Please help us give transgender youth a fighting chance. Their medical care decisions should be between the handling physician and family only. This isn't a matter for politicians to decide.

hey, so I would he grateful if people living in Canada could sign this and if non-Canadians could signal boost, please.

The petition will be closed for signatures on February 16, 2026.

This needs to be boosted.

extremely underrated subgenre of tumblr post: when someone makes a general statement about something, and another person offers a counter-statement that's just completely nonsensical, and the OP just agrees instantly even if it makes no sense at all

examples:

when a character is so badly hurt/sick that their demeanour switches up entirely

  • chatty characters pale-faced and silent
  • quiet and reserved characters rambling deliriously
  • character who always resorts to humour clearly trying to think of a quip but coming up empty
  • no-nonsense character so loopy that they can’t stop giggling
  • a stoic character’s hands trembling in panic
  • an easily frightened character so far out of it that they aren’t aware of what’s happening to them, much less afraid
  • intelligent characters who can’t think straight
  • protective (self-sacrificial) characters letting someone else take the fall for them because they’re too weak to object
  • patient characters snapping at whoever comes near
  • affectionate character who wants to be alone
  • lone wolf who begs you to stay a minute longer.
