It reminds me a little of the old internet. I like how relatively small it feels, and that people post content for the sake of the content, not to promote themselves. I haven’t found my usual corners yet, the ones I used to hang out in on older platforms, but I figure that’s just a matter of time. I’m not super nostalgic for the old internet or anything, but it’s nice to find at least a hint of something human-centered somewhere.

I hope it doesn’t fall apart and that it keeps growing.

I was skeptical when I switched to Linux, but then I ditched Windows on my dual boot for good. It was a hugely positive experience, and it really felt like freedom. I’m hoping this will be the same.

And don’t be mad at me if I act totally clueless here sometimes 'cause all that is new to me.

@soft It was entirely my fault, being too much of a teenage blockhead to notice things that in retrospect were extremely obvious. She deserved better, I hope she found it

i hope my experiences as a deep voiced cis woman having to put in a shitload of effort just to make my voice sound nice by societal standards are gender affirming for any deep voiced women reading this 😂

A good gap was a nice thing to appreciate.

Now, slop has even ruined that.

Everything talks about gaps now and it's tiring.

Miss appreciating the old gaps.

I wrote about the history of Microsoft's Comic Sans font, and the comic artists who inspired it, here: https://docpop.org/2026/07/how-the-watchmen-inspired-comic-sans/

@tsherrygeo Hmm, do you get your receipts from Costco emailed to you? I'm pretty sure Gmail is sucking that info out of emails 😬

@bartreardon @djh It’s been on my TODO list for a LONG time because there’s a steep learning curve.

Nicht einmal Dobrindt zweifelt an, dass die AfD im Verdacht steht, die freiheitliche demokratische Grundordnung abschaffen zu wollen.

Und trotzdem weigert der Innenminister sich seit Amtsantritt, die vielen Belege wenigstens zu sichten.

Dobrindts Begründung für seine Blockade sinngemäß:
„Wir wissen nicht, ob es genug Belege gibt und deshalb gucken wir auch nicht nach.“

Warum lassen wir ihm den Unsinn durchgehen?

@jalefkowit i am kinda giggling about the thought of a girl sitting thru wholeass commander games because she’s too nervous to make a move 😭😭😭

@ComicContext Dude, your butt is wrapped in tight blue spandex. We can clearly see that you're outta your damn mind.

Just a quiet word - as I boosted a silly joke of someone I'm very fond of earlier, opening them up to a bit of a shitty take. And someone else I'm very fond of posted about blocking people with shitty takes and had a shitty response in return. Let me be clear - I realise I reach a lot of people comparatively on this site - and I am not down with that sort of thing. I do not care about followers or clout. I do care about the people here. If you feel like you have to admonish people in some way, without having any basis of understanding of who they are or their motivations, please take pause enough to either try to understand their story, and consider whether YOUR response might be shitty. Even if you think it might be well-intentioned. And I would be grateful if you don't follow me. I'm not a joke or meme account. I don't post stuff because I want to be widely popular. This is my community and I care very deeply about it. We're all trying to pull in the same direction and you thinking you're a big hero and being shitty to people who actually are, makes you look ignorant and harms this very sacred space for many. X
