Found this link while looking for something in ancient Gmail.

Don't share it. It belongs to my estranged adopted sister/exhousemate and I feel like a creeper just being on her server.

But yeah. It's faux-teletext titles she made from (most) my writing for a holiday movie marathon that never happened. The graphic design is all Keet's and it's SO PERFECT.

Honestly, this is some of the best writing I've ever done, especially for the "12Fold" universe which was the basis of one of the three main postfurry RP forums.

It would mean a lot to me if you'd look through it, there's some neat glimpses of what we were up to in those days and I'd hate to have it all be _totally_ lost.

...

Fuck, I miss her.

I forgot to mention the most charming thing about this whole mess:

She pronounces "meme" as "may-may." This whole thing is so twisted and so pure and I feel so much like I've walked into some kind of movie.

re: enemy action ;) (everything's actually fine) 

@001zlnv I think it may have been Viklas.

@Aradia one of the first things i learned from mainstream sci-fi is that all this identity-change and mental-change shit scares THE SHIT outta the normal humans

one of the first things i learned from furry and postfurry is that it's a political imperative to do as much of it right in their faces as possible

re: Do you write CSS? don't do this POS move 

@mawr I physically trembled with rage-sympathy over this. <3

re: enemy action ;) (everything's actually fine) 

@Phorm Oh I have 2FA already! It was pretty easy to do the recovery. :) I re-secured the throwaway Gmail account it's registered to, as well. I wouldn't turn down a little magickal protection, but put it on something I actually care about like the cats instead of my social media. ;D <3

re: enemy action ;) (everything's actually fine) 

Haha I was right. Everything went bughouse immediately after I posted this. :)

Had a sudden spat with a friend that I think was resolved amiably-- that was totally fine, honestly, it happens and they had a valid frustration...

...and then I sat back down and discovered someone was trying to hack my Twitter account. >____<

I think I got it all sorted. And now I am full of adrenaline, caffeine, and righteous anti-phisher rage. Time to work.

re: mood; music; The Thing That Happened 

@Austin_Dern This is nice!

enemy action ;) (everything's actually fine) 

It's 10:30, all the last-minute morning chores that have popped up are resolved, no Crazy Cat Lady is calling me to specify how I should feed her buddies within a millimeter's precision, and there was only one issue in my work in-box, an easily resolved one that actually made me feel smart and competent and happy.

I am relatively calm, unstressed, and mentally uncluttered. At... 10:30 am. There is nothing really stopping me from packing up my laptop, walking out to a cafe in the NOLA sun, and having a quiet and productive work day. Our Guy is even supposed to come by tonight and drop off a 1/2 of a good PNW sativa.

I don't trust any of this. It's too good to be true. I smell conspiracy. *gets on her haunches and watches the horizon warily*

@Austin_Dern (It's actually about half "fuck that place anyhow" and half "yay peggy, you're better for me anyhow!" youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWi )
