I’m so glad someone is doing the real archival work here. I’ve been fascinated with Aristasia and its various movements and outgrowths for several years now on an academic level, and I never thought to turn to Tumblr in my efforts to find more sources. My entry point was an offhand comment on a web page about lesbian Victorian roleplay (something that was apparently common enough for Coming to Power to mention a specific hanky in the lesbian hanky code for “Victorian lady/disobedient maid”-themed cruising) and since then I’ve been compelled by how narrowly I missed coming into their sphere of influence. Thank you for your efforts!

Thank you very much for the message! I do not feel like a can competently string together well thought out essays about Aristasia, but I am more than happy to be the one digging through archives so that others may make use of them. Even if they are, a bit, hidden away on Tumblr. Although I have been trying to mirror them over on a wordpress blog, so that the search engines have an easier time of tracking what I'm doing, and I do try to upload what I find to the internet archive. I mostly just find Tumblr to be a bit more reflective of the sporadic and frantic research and speculation that I tend to do. If you've also been researching for several years, and you have anything I may have missed, I would be absolutely delighted to hear about it! I would also be delighted to hear about what the hanky code for Victorian/maid cruising might be! I can only imagine it's very frilly.

Where should I post my comic?

Hello friends! Today we want to discuss a question we've been seeing pop up a lot more often as of late. The internet is changing, and has been shifting and morphing for a long while, but that poses the question; Where do I post my comic?

The answer to that is pretty simple; Anywhere you want!

While that answer does feel a bit lackluster it's 100% true! There are still lots of places to post your work even if it doesn't feel like there is. We've seen plenty of storytellers share their comics on social media, blogs, and even video formats! It's interesting to think that now we have more places to tell the world our stories than ever before. A great example of a storyteller using all of their platforms to share their story is Zesketches. She utilizes all her social platforms to tell her stories, engaging with audiences by allowing them to help tell the story!

You're probably at the point where you just want to know good places to share your comic in an already established format; Page-to-page, scrolling toon, 4-panel, narrative illustration. There are still tons of places to share your comic with readers, established or independent.

Here are a short list of sites where you can post your comic. We would like to also mention that some of these sites do not give you control over how your comic will look and the content you may be able to post on the platform.

Tumblr***

Comicfury+/***

Webtoons Canvas*

Tapas*

The Duck/Drunkduck+

GlobalComix*

Neocities***

Wordpress***

Comicgenesis+/***

NamiComi*

* : These comic hosts do not give you control over the look of your comics profile or site.

+ : These hosts are similar in that you have access to built in themes for your comic. If you're familiar with a bit of html and css coding, you can really make a great custom site that fits exactly what you need. It does have its limitations and benefits, a quick and easy upload system but a bit limiting to the tags/genres you can select.

*** : These hosts are also website or blog hosts, meaning that you will need to know some level of coding in html/css/bootstrap to get the full spectrum of use out of them.

NOTE: As we did research for this short article, we would like to address something else we've seen across different posts and articles from others. Hiveworks Comics and Spiderforest are NOT webcomic hosts. Hiveworks, est. 2016, is a LGBTQIA+ led agency and publisher. They do not host comics themselves. Read about what they do here. Spiderforest, est. 2004, is a creator-run webcomic collective! They also do not host comics themselves. Read their about page here.

Thank you for reading and create strong!

One day, you’ll fly (short story)

New Note: Here is another story that I wrote back in 2023 as part of my 'uploading old stories from my old wordpress blog' project lol I wonder if I should have uploaded these in order hmmm Original Note: It’s not normal to submit two different entries for MSSS, but I just had both of these ideas and couldn’t resist. Thank you, Min, for letting me submit both! I feel like this one is much nicer than the first. Also a huge thank you to the amazing creator whose house I used in this story: – Newcrest Starter by SimsOnlineCom

Theme: Take Flight

Challenge/Month: Monthly Simlit Short Story/April 2023

Genre: Friendship, animals, fluff

Word Count: 861 words

Sprinkles slowly approached the kitchen counter, feeling more intimidated the closer he got.

Why was it so tall? He didn’t understand why it had to be so tall.

His older brother, Zeus, easily jumped from one counter to the next, seeming to soar through the air with ease.

Why couldn’t Sprinkles also do that? He just didn’t understand. He had tried multiple times, but he failed every single time. Zeus made it seem so simple but, to Sprinkles, it was the hardest thing he’s ever done.

Zeus glanced over the counter, watching as his younger brother paced around the island.

Curious, he jumped down in front of the smaller feline, head tilted to the side. “What are you doing, squirt?”

“I’m not a squirt!” replied Sprinkles with a scoff.

Zeus hummed. “Were you sizing up the counter again?”

“No…”

“You’re worrying too much about it. You’ll be able to jump that high one day, just be patient.”

“What do you know?!” hissed the smaller of the two, his back arched. “It’s been months and I’m no closer, but you can do it so easily! You’ve always been able to jump so easily with your long legs. It’s not fair!”

“Calm down,” Zeus told him softly, lightly tapping the kitten on his nose. “Here, why don’t we practice your jumping?”

“Practice?” he tilted his head to the side in confusion. “How?”

“It’s simple! Just jump in place as high as you can. Let’s go on three, okay?”

“I don’t see how that’s gonna help… but okay.”

“One… two… three!”

Together, the two cats jumped into the air. Sprinkles didn’t make it very high because of his tiny legs and Zeus only made it a bit farther because he had held back, not wanting to make his brother feel worse than he already did.

“You’re doing great! Once more!”

This time, it was just Sprinkles who jumped.

“Oh ho ho, look at you go! You got a bit more height on that one.”

“Did I really?”

“Yes!” Zeus held up his paw, a grin on his face. “High paw, little bro!”

Despite himself, little Sprinkles smiled back, high pawing his older brother.

For hours, the tiny kitten practiced his jumping, marking his progress with a claw mark to the side of the counter. His jumps were not getting higher, though. If anything, he was finding it harder to reach the same height consistently.

Little Sprinkles finally gave up, running into the bedroom to hide under the bed, trying not to succumb to his feelings of inadequacy. Just like his attempts to reach the counter, it did not go well.

His brother’s words echoed in his mind.

One day, his brother had said.

But it had been a lot of days already and the kitten was no closer! Sprinkles was beginning to think that his brother had lied to him. He curled up into a ball beneath the bed, stuffing his face into his fur.

‘I’ll never be able to fly like Zeus can…’ he thought to himself as he slowly drifted off to sleep.

// One Year Later \\

Sprinkles was no longer the tiny kitten he once was. If anything, he was actually a bit bigger than his skinny older brother. That did little to boost his confidence or stifle his nerves as he stared up at the counter.

Zeus came up beside him with a grin. “You ready? Today is the day, I can just feel it!”

Sprinkles wasn’t so sure. Even less so as he watched his brother jump effortlessly onto the counter.

“You’ve got this! Just believe in yourself, little bro!”

Sprinkles took a few deep breaths to calm himself before he sat back, wiggling his butt before pushing off the ground. It felt as if he had grown wings and taken flight! He soared toward the counter with incredible speed.

When his paws finally touched the countertop, he released a yowl of happiness that made his owner nearly fall out of bed. “Oh my grim, I did it! Zeus, I did it!”

“See? I told you you could.” Proud of his baby brother, Zeus moved toward him with the intent of rubbing against him, but the young cat jumped back down before he could. “Eh? Where are you go – AH!”

In the blink of an eye, Sprinkles had jumped again, nearly tumbling right into the older cat. With his heart racing, Zeus moved himself to the edge of the counter, watching as his brother continued a seemingly endless loop of jumping onto the counter, then down and back again.

“I’ve created a monster…” Zeus muttered to himself before moving to the opposite end after nearly being clocked again by the excited feline.

Seeing that his brother’s back was to him, Sprinkles crouched down low against the surface of the counter, slowly approaching his brother.

In the blink of an eye, the younger had pounced on the older, his arms wrapped around Zeus’ neck as he bit down playfully. “Thank you so much, big bro! I couldn’t have done it without you!”

“Alright, alright!” Laughed Zeus as he tried to fight off the excitable young cat. “Just get offa me already, you’re heavy!”

I made a blog!!!

Check out my bloooooooog

(Sorry, there's not much there right now...)

I realized that while I was on cohost, the format and the posting culture (css nerd stuff) kind of encouraged me to put more time and effort into making posts in a way that I hadn't in a long time. I hadn't realized how much I missed having control over the minutiae of content I posted. So even though I resolved to crosspost some of the stuff I liked to tumblr, it's missing some of the personality that I put into it, I think, and having a blog where I can do some of those shenanigans if I want to will be fun.

Also, for your viewing pleasure, you may subscribe to the RSS feeds (there's one for each category in addition to the aggregate feed, so if you only want to hear about art or only games, you can do that as well).

Also also, if you own your own webspace, and are thinking about adding a blog, I wrote a little bit about the plugin i used under the cut. ↓↓↓

I was sifting through the blogging plugins available through my hosting service and settled on HTMLy, firstly because it's pretty lightweight--it only takes up 8mb of server space which is crazy small (compare to Wordpress' 68mb). It has a tag system, categories, and a built in search (not just a google search that crawls through your blog), and aside from how long it took me to hack the themes apart into something resembling the rest of my site, it was really easy to setup. I really like it.

I only added it to my blog, but I'm honestly kind of considering rebuilding the rest of my site using HTMLy as well.

Similar to cohost, you can use markdown and html in your posts. There's a built-in image uploader so you don't have to deal with any image hosting shenanigans. I added a bunch of special elements to my blog's css that i'd defined in the style sheet for my regular website (and even some common ones I used in my chosts), so I can insert them for a cohesive feel.

It also supports multiple users--with its own login page separate from your cpanel or however you usually access your site--which is a feature I'll never use, but I think it's really neat. :)

Aaaanyways, I need to overhaul the rest of my site since I haven't updated it meaningfully in uh... six years... but hopefully, I'll get around to making it more of a reflection of my current interests... this year... maybe....

Also, maaaaaaaan, i really wanna get back into doing little code doodles in Processing. I used to have a lot of fun with them. Maybe I'll port some of my old ones to the latest version so I can put them on the web...

How to Enable SVG Files in WordPress?

Enabling SVG support in WordPress is possible, but it requires a few precautions. How to enable SVG files in WordPress? The easiest and safest way is to use a plugin that sanitizes SVG files before uploading them, removing any potentially harmful code.

What Are the Advantages of Using SVG in WordPress?

How to Increase Media File Maximum Upload Size in WordPress

There are few ways to do this:

1. Update .htaccess file

If your web server is using Apache and PHP is set as an Apache module, then you can add a few lines of code in your WordPress .htaccess file to increase the max upload size in WordPress.

To access your .htaccess file, connect to your server via FTP client and navigate to the folder where WordPress is installed. Open up .htaccess file in a code editor or Notepad and add the following lines.

php_value upload_max_filesize 64M

php_value post_max_size 128M

php_value memory_limit 256M

php_value max_execution_time 300

php_value max_input_time 300

This will define the max upload size in Megabytes. Replace the numbers as per your requirement. The max execution time and max input time are in seconds. The execution time defines the limit of time spent on a single script. Choose a number that is suitable for your site.

2. Edit Functions.php File

In some cases, you might not be able to access your .htaccess file or you are more comfortable editing WordPress theme files.

You can easily increase the size limits by adding the following lines of code in the functions.php file of your theme.

However, remember if you change the theme then max upload size will return to its default values until you edit the functions.php file of the new theme.

@ini_set( ‘upload_max_size’ , ‘64M’ );

@ini_set( ‘post_max_size’, ‘64M’);

@ini_set( ‘max_execution_time’, ‘300’ );

3. php.ini Option

This is a default file used to configure any application which runs on PHP. This file contains parameters required for file timeout, upload size, and resource limits. Access your WordPress root directory using SSH or FTP and look for a php.ini file. In some cases, this file is not visible to the other option would be to create a new file instead.

Open any text editor and create a new file. Copy the following code and save it as php.ini .

upload_max_filesize = 25M

post_max_size = 13M

memory_limit = 15M

Now, upload that php.ini file using SSH or FTP inside the same root folder.

4. Increase Upload Size in Multisite

If you are running WordPress multisite, then upload size can be increased from settings. This increase is dependent on your server settings. If your server is set to 20MB you cannot increase WordPress upload size to 25MB. However, if your server is set to 20MB your network setting is set to 15 MB then you can resolve the issue by increasing the upload size to 20MB.

5. wp-config.php File

Another way of increasing the upload size in WordPress is to define the size parameter in the wp-config.php file. To do that, access your WordPress root directory using SSH or FTP and locate a wp-config.php file.

Open the file in any text editor and add the following code.

@ini_set( ‘upload_max_size’ , ‘20M’ );

@ini_set( ‘post_max_size’, ‘13M’);

@ini_set( ‘memory_limit’, ‘15M’ );

Save your changes and it should increase your file upload size.

6. Plugin Method

Not everyone is a fan of writing code or accessing root files using SSH or FTP. For that situation, the plugin comes in handy and luckily there is a WordPress plugin available for increasing WordPress upload size. The plugin we will be using is Increase Max Upload Filesize 1 plugin.

Go to your WordPress Dashboard → Plugins → Add new , search “ Increase Max Upload Filesize ” then activate and install the plugin. Once installed, go to plugin settings and simply enter the value for upload size.

Click the Save Changes button to apply the new upload size.

9 Problems That Cause a Slow WordPress Site You Should Avoid to Improve Speed

WordPress site speed is a key factor in its success or failure. According to recent Google research, a visitor’s likelihood of abandoning sites that take between one and three seconds to load is 32%, and this percentage reaches 90% for pages that take more than 5 seconds! Eliminating a slow WordPress site and increasing its speed – in addition to helping you retain visitors, it will also improve your articles’ search engine results, thus increasing your site’s traffic. This means that your concern for site speed is not a luxury by any standards! Now, here are 9 problems you should avoid to improve your WordPress site’s speed.

Problems you should avoid to improve your WordPress site’s speed

Here are the most prominent problems you should avoid to increase your WordPress site’s speed, improve your content’s search engine results, and thus get the highest traffic rate for your site: 1- Choosing a slow website host The time during which your site runs without any problems is called uptime, and each hosting company displays the uptime it provides; This is an important competitive advantage when choosing between different hosting companies. Although we all want 100% uptime, most companies offer 99.999%, which is not a bad percentage at all. However, it is unacceptable to choose a hosting company that offers less than 99.90% uptime. Don’t underestimate the difference, because your site may be down for hours throughout the year! 2- Choosing a hosting plan that is not appropriate for the size of your site You may indeed choose a hosting company with high uptime, but choose the wrong hosting plan. This will significantly reduce the speed of your WordPress site if it receives more traffic than it can handle. Hosting plans include: Shared hosting (shared server) In this case, you and a group of users share a specific server with limited resources. This explains why it is the cheapest of all plans, and the increased likelihood of your site slowing down, as it is affected by the usage of other subscribers. Despite this, shared hosting is suitable for small or medium-sized websites. Virtual Private Server (VPS) and Dedicated Servers These two types have larger resources, and you’re the only user, so these plans are suitable for large websites. It’s logical to measure the number of visitors to your site with your server’s resources. Then, choose a plan that’s appropriate for your site’s size. Alternatively, you can start with shared hosting until your site grows and then request an upgrade to a VPS.

3- Choosing a slow WordPress theme

Choosing a slow theme will increase page load times. When you encounter this problem, using more plugins to speed up your site, compress images, etc. won’t help. In this case, you’re solving a secondary problem. Therefore, you should choose a theme that is constantly updated, and don’t trust the theme’s data too much without testing its speed yourself. I recommend reading my previous article on how to choose a fast and efficient WordPress theme to avoid this problem.

4- Not paying attention to image and file compression

This is one of the biggest mistakes made by many website administrators, causing their site’s pages to take longer to load. Obviously, the more files or images of inappropriate size you have on your site, the slower it will be. You can speed up your WordPress site in this case by changing the image format to WebP, JPEG XR, or JPEG 2000, in addition to compressing images and enabling lazy loading. Some plugins will help you do this, such as: - ShortPixel. - WP Smush. - Imagify. - WP Rocket. - You may also prefer to compress images on external sites before uploading them to WordPress using sites like compressjpeg or Tinypng (a good option, but it will take a lot of time).

5- Installing or using too many inappropriate plugins

Every plugin installed increases your site’s page load time, and having too many plugins may offer you more features—but it will definitely detract from your site’s speed. I find that some website administrators install many unnecessary or duplicate plugins! Also, failure to update plugins, whether by their developers or by your website (if automatic updates are disabled), will drain your website’s resources. So, my advice at this point is to review each installed plugin, check the date of the last update, and test the impact of each plugin on website speed. It can also be helpful to disable all plugins and then activate them one by one, testing your website speed each time you activate a plugin.

6- Disable the cache feature for your website

Cache is a temporary storage of your website data on the server, saving it the time and stress required to display the website page in your visitors’ browsers. This is a very important feature that can increase your WordPress website speed and achieve immediate results. Some hosting companies provide this service for free; just check to see if this feature is available in your plan. But don’t worry if you can’t find it, as there are many plugins that can cache your site, including: - The paid WP Rocket plugin (which offers many other features such as lazy loading images and hosting Google Fonts on your WordPress site locally, which speeds up your site in more ways than one). - Or the free W3 Total Cache plugin.

7- Don’t minify CSS, JavaScript, and HTML.

This is a bit technical, but a large percentage of your site’s speed depends on the time required to load various parts of your pages, such as Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), text, and images. When a visitor enters your site, the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTML) begins transferring these resources. The more HTML requests there are, the longer the site will take to load. My advice here is to work on minifying CSS, JavaScript, and HTML by removing unnecessary spaces and elements. There are some good plugins that can help you with this, such as: - Asset Cleanup. - Autoptimize plugin. - WP Rocket plugin (We often use this plugin, don’t we?)

8- Use synchronous loading of CSS and JavaScript files

CSS and JavaScript files can be loaded in two ways: - Synchronous loading. - Asynchronous loading. Choosing synchronous loading of these files will slow down your site’s speed because it means that all files have to be loaded at the same time, and therefore none of them will appear on your site’s pages until they are all fully loaded.

In contrast, asynchronous loading allows some files to load for a shorter time while the rest are completed, which is what we want here to increase the speed of your WordPress site. To solve this problem, you can use the Async JavaScript plugin or the HTTP2 Push plugin.

9- Not Using a Content Delivery Network (CDN)

Many website owners overlook the point of using a Content Delivery Network (CDN), even though it plays an important role in improving website speed. The job of these networks is to save copies of your website pages in different locations around the world, and when a visitor begins accessing your site, data is sent to them from the closest location. It is obvious that data transfer time varies depending on the distance. If the visitor is from China and your website server is in India, for example, the site will be faster than if the server was in Italy. Some hosting companies may provide this service with their subscription plan. However, if it is not available, you can use sites such as: - Cloudflare (free). - Stackpath (paid).

How do you measure the speed of your WordPress site?

You can test your site speed in several ways, including: - GTmetrix - Pingdom’s site speed test - and Google PageSpeed Insights Personally, I prefer GTmetrix, but of course you can choose any test. What matters here is that you unify the test before and after performing the tips mentioned above so that you can evaluate the result.

Steps to test a WordPress site’s speed in GTmetrix - Enter the domain of the WordPress site whose speed you want to test here, then click Test your site and wait for the result. - After that, the result will appear, including an evaluation of Site structure and features. - You can view a detailed report of all your site elements below the results. GTmetrix will show you exactly what the flaws are and how you can address them to improve your site’s speed. Read the full article
