Javascriptless Image Slideshow

I made one of these for my games pages and realized it might be handy to other people. I learned to do this for code on Dreamwidth , actually, since you can't insert javascript into a post but you can do this if you need a tabbed/multipage interface. It can be really nice for when you want to show a bunch of screenshots but don't want to make your page super long! You can see an…

My Airtable Comments Script

This is really kind of dashed off but as a kind of alternative to the virtualobserver comment widget I made my own using Airtable since I wanted some more granular control over what I was doing. Airtable has a pretty generous free system; if you go over like 1000 comments you will maybe need something else but if you're a small fry this will work.

If you're doing brisker…

Toxic Yuri VN Log, Pt. 1

I decided to go through as many of the Toxic Yuri VN Jam games as I could that I found remotely interesting and it turns out that's a lot of them. Will I get through my whole list ever? Who can say but I'm going to do my rubesty. See the original thread on bsky here!

idk

Anyway I was kind of idly thinking about making a homepage for my narrative games but I guess I have the impetus now due to the fact that I was planning on putting some spicier stuff on the internet in the future. Unfortunately I am incapable of half-assing things, which means I wrote an entire Zola theme from scratch. Also I forgot to finish writing this post before I actually launched the site…
