Honestly I was planning on waiting until I was finished the whole site before sharing this, but unfortunately, it turns out that I'm still very much figuring out what I want from a website design-wise! Oh well. I was contemplating leaving off more well-known series, but I don't know what constitutes well-known these days, so this list is more or less every series I like that I have either completed or have read a significant number of chapters of.

Please note that this site is optimized for 1920 x 1080 display on Firefox. It will look completely unreadable on mobile (unless you're using desktop view) and less pretty on any other display. I will probably never fix this unless I begin to feel personally inconvenienced by it. Thank you!!

screensavers are what your computer thinks of when it dreams. they take little naps when you go too long without using them, and it's up to you to varnish the landscapes of their REM cycles with more trinkets from coolscreensavers.com when they wake up. old school computers used to come with built-in screensavers because the software designers of the past wanted nothing more than for the technology of the future to have been nurtured by the endlessly unfurling beauty of bouncing geometry and 3d dolphins. but what does the technology of today envision? the darkness encased in my cracked samsung galaxy tells me not much. but i believe in the future. i believe that one day every computer will once more awaken from a refreshing dreamscape to the soft light of it's desktop's default photo landscape background, ready to consume more malware.

imagining bridget guilty gear going back to her town to tell her parents about her gender resolve and her parents going "well, yeah" but wanting to be supportive since she had to throw away her whole quest to prove the gender superstitions of the townspeople wrong in order accept herself so they start googling stuff like "supporting my cisgender trans child"

Hundreds of Jewish anti-war demonstrators have been arrested during a Passover seder that doubled as a protest in New York, as they shut down a major thoroughfare to pray for a ceasefire and urge the Senate majority leader, Chuck Schumer, to end US military aid to Israel.

The 300 or so arrests took place on Tuesday night at Grand Army Plaza, on the doorstep of Schumer’s Brooklyn residence, where thousands of mostly Jewish New Yorkers gathered for the seder, a ritual that marked the second night of the holiday celebrated as a festival of freedom by Jews worldwide.

The seder came just before the US Senate resoundingly passed a military package that includes $26bn for Israel.

the Columbia University arrests are worse than they seem. They're arresting protesting students for trespassing. It goes without saying students cannot meaningfully "trespass" in the common areas of a university they attend. So Columbia University has suspended all student protestors from their institution, in the process revoking their access to housing, their belonging, and most crucially damaging their academic futures. We are witnessing full scale silencing and removal of anyone of conscience from the next generation of academia.

beyond that the columbia common is literally an open space during the day; the gates are open and it's possible to pass through it like you'd pass through a regular block. even after my student ID expired i was still able to walk through the commons bc ID is not requested until you enter an actual building. it's quite common to see parents, toddlers, and such who are clearly not enrolled just hanging out. so not only were the students not trespassing at a SCHOOL THEY PAY FOR, there was also not a precedent for non-students to be disallowed from the grass and walkways.
