does anyone know a safe way to clean upholstery? it's not actually stained or anything, but we have some throw pillows that we need to wipe down with something for mysophobia reasons, and I'm sure clorox wipes would ruin the color

@terrana Makes sense. The computer industry is very full of poorly-designed ad-hoc standards.

@terrana Every keyboard still seems to have it, while they don't generally have the infinitely more useful compose or altgr keys. I guess that's some kind of standardization thing?

This honestly felt more like a glimpse into another reality than like some idea we came up with.

so last night, before falling asleep, we (Rose, mostly, I think?) had some kind of dream-idea-worldbuilding-vision-thing

a big pointy castle on a hill, like something out of a gothic horror thing, but the whole thing is a mechanism of unknown purpose that's been there for as long as anyone can remember

most of it is broken, except that maybe it's not because some of the things it does do stop working if you try to fix an apparently completely unrelated part of it

people working with it have figured out what some of it does and how to use it, but some of the things that it does are really difficult to even realize that it's doing them, like retroactively making small changes to history (like making it so that you were wearing a hat all day yesterday or something)

the north half of it is pretty much entirely unexplored, because no one has figured out how to get it to let you into the northwest wing and the northeast wing is as far as anyone can tell just an ordinary dilapidated castle except for the fact that random things in the south half stop working if you try to repair or replace any of the disintegrating furniture or crumbling walls

no one working with it is quite sure they were always the species they currently are. they *were* always that species, they have photographs and family history to prove it, but they might not have been always that species when they found the thing

@sharkNserg thank you, knowing we're surrounded by friends helps
