now that i have tampermonkey ive spent the past like hour trying to figure out how to use it to update the dark mode palette to include the navy again because i hate that it's just black. i looked at tumblr's CSS and literally the dark mode palette takes the "navy" variable and just sets it to 0, 0, 0 AKA black. i can edit it in the inspector (which is how i know exactly what they did) but i haven't figured out tampermonkey syntax/functionality to the extent i know how to script it to do this. this is a reasonable rabbit hole to be going down 30 minutes after i am supposed to be in bed

#like goddamn this UI update is so bad im learning more about web development to try and revert it #also any resources on tampermonkey helps BTW i dont know how to use it to update CSS variables if thats even possible #i might have to make my own variable and manually tell it in every reference to the old one to use mine instead but that seems wrong #anyway i am taking a metaphorical knife to this website #like the dark mode palette entries for navy and other color variables is what i want to update but i cant figure out how to do that #maybe i need to make my own stylesheet with its own set of variables and tell tumblr to load that sheet instead of the one it normally does #which is still a thing i don't know the proper syntax for so.
