@chr@cybre.space Yeah, that's true; though if you're careful they're not so bad. 2.5 MB is what I aimed for with both of those vids; any more than that and I wouldn't have done it. :3

@chr@cybre.space But yeah, photography is super important-- videos are super rad, too. It just breathes life into the web in such lovely ways.

@chr@cybre.space For a more interactive example, my personal domain's homepage: corticalstack.net/

That one I didn't do anything super special to; just the stock template with an MP4 set as the header background and some CSS tweaks to fix issues I had with spacing.

@chr@cybre.space Yeah, I could've probably done a little more to improve that but I'm still happy with the results. :3

@chr@cybre.space Photography + web design = best best best best best

I mean for serious, here's an example: I wanted a landing page for the instance I'm building with friends at translimin.al -- So I took some video I shot in vegas, looped it, exported to MP4 and set that as the background, little CSS for positioning, text sizing and responsiveness aaand done. Rad looking temp site in 30 minutes. :D

Venting about Late Capitalism 

I am so sick of the status quo.

I have friend who works long night shifts at a food processing facility. What they'd call "A workin' man's job" back in the 50's. The kind of job that ensured you a salary that could buy a house and provide enough to care for a partner and a child. You wouldn't be well off, but you'd be doing alright.

Today, they're stuck living with a parent, 'cause money's too tight to leave.

They're not even in a major city.

Fuck capitalism.

@kel@witches.town (and I don't mean that as "No because I'll be too busy," I mean that as "Because you and many others have requested them and I've already just accepted that I will be making nothing but mawr plushes for folks for years when I finally start making them. XD)

@kel@witches.town *hugs!* When I start making 'em, I will already have a long list of pre-orders. ^^;;

re: very political thought (:thinking:) 

@thefishcrow Almost like "civilized" societies are all about keeping the rich rich and the poor poor... 🤔
