Website is Live!

After several weeks of hard work learning html and css, I've finally finished putting together my new website! !

On it you can find information as to where to find me online, updates to my Invertebrate Tarot project, and commission information!

(Easily check out the full deck as each card updates)

I have also updated my Ko-Fi page. It hosts my commission listings, as well as the last of my stock from my previous BigCartel shop (though shipping is for now limited to the usa), so if you wanted to pick up any stickers or acrylic charms of my designs, this is the place to grab them. I also host my mini-artbooks as pay-what-you-want.

With any commission, I have decided to take 15% of comm payments and donate the funds in an effort to resist the violence of the current usa administration.

As I set up which group I'll focus those donations on (looking at the Trans Youth Emergency Project) , for now I will be donating those funds to a friend of mine who's wheelchair was broken by an airline.

Finally, I've donated several of my illustrations as wallpapers to a fundraiser organized by Franz:

This is a nature-themed wallpaper pack featuring dozens of artists donations. It is available to the end of February. As per the instructions on the post, donate to either Lambda Legal or Assigned Media and Franz will send you the download link to the wallpaper collection.

I’m a complete beginner when it comes to any coding and I’m not sure if you are or not, but was it easy to begin making the site using rarebit?

I'm a complete beginner as well! I've only coded a navigation bar back in middle school for an assignment and then never again, so Rarebit was overwhelming when I started.

However, you'll realize that it's pretty straightforward the more you read the code over and over again. I suggest opening up the Rarebit folder in an external terminal that isn't Neocities like Visual Studio Code and download the Live Preview plug-in from Microsoft. This let's you see your website in live time and not have to code blindly like in Neocities.

HTML is extremely straightforward and easy to grasp. It's CSS you have to learn and worry about since it's what makes your website look like your website.

I haven't touched Javascript yet, that's a bit more complex, but nothing a YouTube video or a forum can't help with.

It just takes time and patience like any other skill to learn!

I recently learnt how to use flexbox!

Blocking specific works or works by Anon authors on AO3:

The muting and blocking functions recently introduced on AO3 are good and vital, but sometimes you don't want to mute an author's entire catalogue of works - you just want to stop looking at a particular work or three every time you go in the tag. And sometimes trolls will spitefully put their work into Anonymous collections specifically to circumvent people being able to block/mute them.

Luckily, the old method of muting authors - Site Skins - also works for individual fanworks! This is a more targeted method than trying to exclude tags in the filter, and more efficient/reliable because it will always work as long as you're logged in - no more needing to bookmark long filter URL strings and then getting burned when you forget to access the tag page through the bookmark.

On your Dashboard, go to "Skins" in the sidebar menu.

Click "Create Site Skin." (You can see that I've already got a skin active on my profile.)

Give your Site Skin a descriptive name that will remind you of what the purpose of the skin is or what the skin contains. Feel free to elaborate further in the Description field. You can even upload an icon for the skin if that would be helpful for identifying it in your Site Skins list.

Then, in the CSS field, enter this code:

.work-XXXXXXXX { display: none !important; }

Next, we are going to replace the XXXXXXXX part with a unique identifier assigned to each fanwork on AO3.

Open another tab/window and go to a fic that you want to mute. Look in the URL bar. It should look something like this:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/43588455

or like this if it's chaptered:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/17172854/chapters/40376879

The string of numbers that comes immediately after /works/ is the unique identifier that you want (I've bolded them in the examples above).

Ignore the numbers that come after /chapters/.

Highlight and copy the unique identifier. Go back to the Edit Site Skin tab/window and replace the XXXXXXXX in the code with the unique identifier you've copied.

Scroll down and click "Submit." You're done!

To mute more than one fanwork, you just have to add more lines for more works to the CSS code in your Site Skin:

.work-XXXXXXXX, .work-XXXXXXXX, .work-XXXXXXXX { display: none !important; }

Note: This method does not prevent you from seeing the fanwork if you go to that fanwork by entering its URL directly into the URL bar. It does remove it from any page on AO3 that pulls fanworks into a list of fanworks - like pages for tags, search results, author profiles and works pages, bookmark lists, etc.

Note 2: You must be logged into your account for the Site Skin to work. And the Skin does not affect anybody else's browsing experience, just yours.

Go forth and curate!

Hey very random feel free to ignore this but I saw in the toasty puter post in the tags that you mentioned coding! I love coding! So uh. What's it that you're coding on your hopefully soon to be less closer to its own heat death Laptop :)?

omg thank you for the reminder to actually change my computer settings!!! 🤞🤞🤞 my laptop chills the fuck out now (literally, lmao)

and thanks sm for the question!!! i've been doing some stuff in python for school assignments/research and html/css bc i want to remake my neocities website :)

(i haven't gotten anywhere with the neocities stuff tho bc my brain and eyes are usually fried after school, lmao)

my current research project feels very niche to me so i'm trying to figure out how i can describe it in a way that makes sense but also isn't too specific. this project is also new to me so i don't fully understand some of it. i also don't know what kind of coding experience you have. tldr: i'm sorry if this ends up being incoherent, lmao

it's essentially a couple of data analysis things?

i've been processing + plotting some data to look at the sun's intensity (power emitted per area) at different wavelengths. this gets me an intensity vs. wavelength graph. i'm doing this for really cool reasons but alas they are also really niche reasons :/

i've also been processing + plotting some images (this part has been the most difficult for me ;-;). they're essentially just images with some random and fake stars in the background. i'm isolating the parts of the image that occur at the wavelengths i'm interested in (this was the worst bc the images are just pixels so i had to figure out what pixels corresponded to what wavelengths etc. evil evil evil evil). anyway then i took my little isolated image and broke it up into even smaller pieces and averaged the intensities of all those (binned + averaged those bins). this was so i could go from a normal looking image to a graph with a single line of data (intensity vs. wavelength again)

from what i understand i'm supposed to compare these two intensity graphs and idk, have some revelations about my fake data? but idk how to do that so i will be asking my advisor for help on monday, lmao

anyway i hope this made sense? explained something? i think this would be so much easier to explain with images but i don't have anything other than my silly little niche graphs, sorry :(

lmk if you're confused or have questions about anything and i can try to clarify it :)

but! you like to code as well! what kind of stuff are you doing (or have done in the past)?

Hi,

I don't know if you can help but

I'm trying to use a skin to hide the buttons I don't use on ao3 as the dashboard looks really busy to me and I struggle with it

I've managed to use some bits of css to tweak some of it but not others and I can not figure out why it's working sometimes and not the rest of the time???

#dashboard a[href$="/assignments"] {

display: none !important;

}

I tried this to remove assignments and it worked!

But then

#dashboard a[href$="/sign-ups"] {

display: none !important;

}

Didn't? Is it the hyphen?

The main ones I really want to get rid of are the subscription and invitation buttons on the navigation bar. But I can not figure it out.

I've tried

.user.home .primary.header .navigation.actions li:nth-of-type(4)  form[id="invitations"] {

display: none;

}

And

.user.home.primary.header .navigation.actions li:nth-of-type(3)  form[id="new_subscription"] {

display: none;

}

At first I thought it wasn't working because it needed to be in its own skin, with the other one as a parent. But that didn't work. Then I thought it might be the spaces? As I think ao3 added them when I pasted it in. But that didn't seem to make a difference. I've seen some ppl talking about something needing to be enabled in Firefox. Is that it? I'm using duckduckgo mobile (I mainly want the skin to work on my mobile) so I don't think I CAN enable that on my browser.

I'm a bit stuck and I think it's because largely I don't really understand this lol. The bits of code that did work are much simpler than the ones I'm trying for the navigation bar. Is there a simpler way I can do it with the navigation bar? Something similar?

Is there an entire other way to do this that's simpler? I did try looking for a hidden buttons or simple skin that focused on all it buttons but couldn't find anything

-thank you

I figured it out for you and tested it on mobile to be sure it worked! I used the :has() selector here to ensure that you wouldn't end up with empty elements that could leave you with uneven spacing (difference below)

Your code would be this! V

dashboard li:has(a[href$="/assignments"]), dashboard li:has(a[href$="/signups"]), ul.navigation.actions li:has(form[action$="/subscriptions"]), ul.navigation.actions li:has(a[href$="/invitations"]){ display:none; }

[blessedcactus]

Trying to code for our first coding assignment like: googling how to insert image header with css, img src not working???

Help, I am not smart!!

Also I love this image but because it's why I'm struggling I want her head on a pike:

I made a few new characters for my story + new concepts

Warren is a hollower (a character who represents a trauma, the aftermath, or the after effects), who takes the form of an anthropomorphic jackrabbit with a plain brown coat. His “area” resembles a warm field of grass, surrounded by mud, old, broken pick up trucks, and a small cabin. He represents distrust, or wariness towards others to prevent harm. Warren is blind, a consequence of a fight against a stronger hollower. Warren also owns various riot guns, sound-oriented, and will shoot indiscriminately.

The Sigil system is a sort of magic, in the Depths (subconscious lucid dream realm where subconscious takes form). Sigils require markings, which call upon certain strings of code. Markings also represent its user with basic shapes (ex: the proxy symbol can represent a marking), alongside travel symbols, which are more complex to help differentiate, often related to path finding or hazards. The strings of code are based off HTML.

Sigil-types;

- Healing, easy to learn, a few examples of sigil users of this type include the Surrogate. These commands use the code in DNA to resolve the injury. Users (who can summon their marking with a hand) usually have stronger “magic”, and usually have a power relating to healing, (I.e. Surrogate capable of quick regeneration to the point where limbs regenerate in minutes) or abilities of a similar caliber. These commands can also work in alternate paths, such as forcing bones to break, or manipulating the body to the user’s wishes. Also known as physical sigils, as these sigils can be used in a physical space by anyone (mainly the healing ones) or relate to physiology. The consequences of these commands is fatigue, and bodily pains.

Ex: <repair>

<!—area of damage is lower right forearm (aka the arm attached to ur wrist). the parts of the body are sectioned off for ease, like torso, shoulder, forelimb, thigh, calf, etc.—>

area: forelimb-ls-r;

<!—damage-family relates to the time of damage (i.e. “burn, tear, perforation, fracture, etc., etc.). a value is then assigned akin to triage to determine the strength of healing, the strongest value is 8, which instantly regens up to half of the human body+anatomy. 3 is quite strong on its own, to show healing commands aren’t always needed—>

damage-family: burn-3;

<!— this is the area of the wound, for specific injuries so as to not command the whole damn limb. 1px = 0.1 in for size. —>

width: 38px;

height: 74px;

</repair>

<!—This command is used to heal physical damage, such as cuts, and broken bones. For illnesses and infections, other commands are used—>

-Psychic, extremely powerful, but unpredictable due to Ren’s damaged psyche which can cause sigils to backfire. Usually can only be harnessed by stronger entities such as Higher Depthborne or hollower connected to stronger feelings. Commands can be used to manipulate an area familiar to the user, and used to create small, powerful items, such as gates that block off chunks of the area (chunks equate to a 500x500grid of the area, depending upon size), or summon homunculi, creatures that can follow simple directions (do anything if you can explain it to a 7th grader). Sigils are nonphysical, and most users rarely use commands due to instability. The trick is to remain clearheaded with the command in mind to avoid syntax errors. The Caretaker uses psychological commands, mainly to keep Ren from progressing. Other abilities include influencing nearby thinking creatures’ thoughts, telepathy, and basically every ability associated with the Absolute Solver except modifying one’s body. The effects often drain its users, resulting in mental exhaustion, sensitivity to loud noises, and anxiety. Due to its fluidity, based on both HTML and CSS (violent screaming directed towards flex-box).

-Base Sigils, aka all the subgroups. Basically the two above are the main Sigil groups (manipulate mind or body not both, both are scary). Extremely unique, based on the user, which can range from being able to use leech commands or change the properties of specific items. Usually they’re weaker, and often work alongside the user. Such examples include teleportation, or could be a specific skill that becomes enhanced, such as carnekinesis (manipulation of flesh á la Cyn).

All sigils can be used to harm or help everyone. A psyche-Sigil user can use telekinesis to help distract a Sentinel for their packmates to sneak by without hurting anyone, or crush it into a gory mess. A phys-Sigil user can be valuable for healing, but they aren’t nurses. They can break bones by looking at someone, cause burns without ever using flames, and make sickness.

Archivist Cecil is a warden for Ren. She is characterized as a low energy lunatic, sarcastic, and patient, yet capable of snapping, alongside a dark sense of humor. She wears metal goggles with orange lenses, which double as her glasses, with carbon-fiber pull straps, a white labcoat, and some sort of shitty t-shirt on top of some nice long pants. The t-shirt may or may not read “Scourge of God” in red comic sans with flams around the text, alongside an image of Serial Designation V from Murder Drones, drinking a can of gasoline. She hates it here and wants to leave but the facility won’t let her. Her kid has also been sent here so that if she incites another specimen rebellion, they will kill him, alongside using him to observe the exposure to specimens (positive). She’s also a fully transitioned woman. Cecil is also born to French-Australian parents, and had a husband (killed/silenced by Tadano for leaking sensitive documents about the specimens). His name was Silas Giuseppe, who majored in subhumanology (study of specimens).

Neat tidbits:

-Bisexual

-Freckles. Tons of freckles.

-Long, shaggy black hair with a small strand of stark white hair in her bangs.

-Coffee addict

-She’s basically an underpaid social worker turned found mother, but if her wards were her children.

-Jokes about her “kids”/wards.

-Slightly cringy/Out of pocket, shits given: none

-Suffers from Long Covid symptoms, and the existential horror of how all the specimens in her care will die eventually as part of a vicious cycle that neither she nor her son are immune.

-Allows Ren to steal files for his research, since she is desperate for her son’s safety. Therefore she lets him get everything he needs

Kelsey is Arch. (Pronounced “ark”) Cecil’s son. He’s almost the spitting image of his mum, and wears a special necklace, currently barring him from any and all experimentation besides Project Deltarune. He’s 9, reads in the rec room, and sleeps in a tent inside the laundry room of the specimen dorms (he likes the noise because specimens are schizo when it comes to the times when they do laundry). Kelsey finds most of the scientists mean, and doesn’t really feel connected with other humans. He also has a minor fear of sentinels (finds them scary). He has his mother’s dark hair, eyes and freckles. The specimens see him like a mutually owned cat, and they all refer to him as “Tess”, except Ren, who calls him “Critter”. Kelsey’s more energetic like his dad, enjoys engineering, and likes listening to specimens infodump. He also carries an emotional support Serial Designation N. He’s also still naïve and Ren takes it upon himself to make sure Kelsey’s at his happiest.

I want to formally write up my digital note-taking system as someone with autism and ADHD at some point, complete with screenshots. I've always been trying to reduce it and simplify it but I've accepted that it's always going to be difficult for other people to implement because I'm obsessed with organization and have been refining the system over years.

I've been reading Building a Second Brain by Tiago Forte and have loosely adapted the PARA concept (Projects, Areas, Resource, Archives). I think it's brilliant to make notes more actionable. I want to organize such that it's easier to access notes most useful to me, and less-relevant-and-immediately-actionable notes like resources and finished projects are kept but neatly put away for later use and not cluttering up the space.

Basically, most of my personal and reference notes are in Notion. There I keep a list of things like my goals, my spending, my project planning, and reference materials I've collected over the years related to things like health, career development, recipes, etc.

However, Notion is a clunky experience on mobile. There is also no offline support - well, not proper offline support, anyway. That's because it's fundamentally a web application.

For quick notes I take on the go, reminders, and shopping lists, I use Google Keep. I can't understate how I haven't found a better app for this. Imagine a dynamic sticky notes board that syncs across devices and is easy to add and remove from. I can send notes to myself in the future in less than a minute and it basically runs my life. Every so often, I copy down important notes from Google Keep into Notion. I think basically everyone should use Google Keep, but especially for people with ADHD. Often we think of things in the moment, but they aren't relevant. I always jot down something I remember and send a reminder to myself when I can take action with it.

Finally, as much as I think Notion is great for note-taking, I actually use Obsidian for any deeper knowledge databases. I'm going to experiment and use Obsidian as my main school notes hub when I go back to school. I have a personal Obsidian wiki for programming. Obsidian is essentially offline Notion with less emphasis on databases. The linking between pages and seeing a map of how concepts are related to one another is extremely powerful.

And although I don't use it as often, I really like Notability on my iPad with an Apple Pencil. I use it for making digitized diagrams and as a study tool. The act of writing over typing codifies things in my memory.

I used to use Microsoft OneNote a lot. I miss when it was free. I appreciated how flexible it was. I used a tablet to write directly on the pages. However, I found that I hated formatting in it over time, and I preferred using Markdown as it's more universal. (Even my resume is written in LaTeX. I used to code every assignment in HTML/CSS because I wanted perfect formatting.) Overall, OneNote was clunky and difficult to keep consistently formatted.

On top of my digital system, I have a physical bullet journal and whiteboards. I think having multiple spaces that remind of of my tasks and ideas and to jot them down, and then moving them around helps me remember them. I could streamline the process a bit, but I really don't like compromising physical note-taking. I'm a firm believer in physical and non-cloud backups of information. I don't want to put all of my eggs in one basket and rely on Internet infrastructure. I also want to feel grounded. There are some hybrid digital/physical notebooks I might look into to keep the process simple, but I've been working with this system fine.

i am the person who originally let lolita know that you had been taking credit for her apocrypha skin. honestly the fact that you're doubling down and insisting that you coded your site's skin is wild. i literally recognized the apocrypha skin immediately when i saw your site. someone else let me know and was like, "huh wow, isn't this lolita's skin?"

this isn't "inspiration" this is stealing. you may want to look into the difference between inspiration and ripping. Hope this helps.

Thanks for outing yourself I guess.

In coding parlance, the difference between ripping and inspiration is that ripping is taking the raw code without editing it or editing it minimally. Reverse engineering something to perform the same task is generally not considered ripping.

I am also a designer (my degree is in digital media) and I am not denying that Lolita is essentially the visual designer of the skin. She is still credited on the site. However she did not code NOX's skin.

This is the forum row code from the Apocrypha skin:

I'm using the inspect element tool here because I want you to see all that css in the forum rows (and I took that out of there immediately, even when we did have the Apocrypha skin). I also want you to see how the code is laid out. Notice how Lolita uses flex and :after and :before selectors.

This is NOX's forum row code:

Does it look even remotely the same? I use grid to achieve my layout. Instead of using a bunch of css in the forum rows, I have a second class assigned to the forum (that's what "right-half" is and it's assigned using javascript). I only use flex for alignment because i hate it, and instead of using :after to create gradient underlines, I use an entire class, because then I only have to style it once and if I want to change it, I only have to change that class.*

I did not want to bring it up, because most of the coders in the Jcink community are self taught, but the reason I rewrote NOX's skin is because it was difficult to work with and if I wanted to modify one thing, I then had to go through the entire skin and modify several other things to fix it.

I understand that you want to help your friend, but you are not helping anyone by making assumptions and not even asking for an explanation. Instead of doing that you could have asked for my side of the story at any time.

*not directly relevant but the reason our skin is styled like this is because we also allow our members to choose their own gradients for their character accounts, which you can see in the main member profiles. When I was skinning the site, we were unsure whether we would be allowing the entire site to change colour depending on which character you were logged into.

i think one thing that genuinely helped me not want to use it was having a professor that, instead of outright banning the use of it, says “dont use it for assignments, but if there’s a concept you’re stuck on feel free to ask for help.” because tbh, it’s pretty obvious when you ask chatgpt to right a full essay, but writing code? not so much. and the problem is, most of the time it works. maybe it’s shit and messy and confusing but it works, and the majority of my classes have autograders that dont care what it looks like as long as it passes tests.

so when a professor outright says “don’t use it it’s completely forbidden,” not only am i extremely tempted, but i’m also trying so hard to refrain from using it that it makes me want to do it even more.

but if the professor instead says use it to understand concepts, or even in my web programming class he ENCOURAGES us to use it for the css because no one in their right mind would memorize everything you can do in css, THATS what helps my understanding. cause now, instead of just taking the L and deciding this topic is one ill never be able to grasp, i can ask chat (which, is really just a very specific web search) and maybe actually be able to understand it.

and THATS what helps my understanding, more than being forbidden from using it, and more than using it to complete assignments. i shudder to think of all the people in my classes who only pass cause of chatgpt actually joining the workforce. because yeah, it works, but working code can only get you so far, and if the future of technology is working code, well. frankly we’re fucked.

it's so fucking frustrating to be in college and know everyone uses chatgpt and to be tempted by it constantly while also knowing intellectually that it doesn't work and it's a bad idea. like, i hang out in the library a lot, and i see people using chatgpt on assignments almost every day. and i know it isn't a good way to learn, because it's not really "artificial intelligence" so much as it is an auto text generator. and it gives you wrong information or badly worded sentences all the time. but every week i stare down assignments i don't want to do and i think man. if only i could type this prompt into a text generator and have it done in 10 minutes flat. and i know it wouldn't work. it wouldn't synthesize information from the text the way professors want, it wouldn't know how to answer questions, it just spits out vaguely related words for a couple paragraphs. but knowing my classmates get their work done in 10 minutes flat with it while i fight every ounce of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in my body is infuriating.
