Went slightly insane and added a bunch of translations from Wikisource to beef up the contents since i felt like it

Marked my predictions from last year — not great results for my predictive abilities! A 2023 forecast will be coming soon.

As a Pagan and (more importantly) an extremely online nerd, I am obliged to post the best Christmas song at this time of year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfWK5fIUZOQ

(The best Christmas songs that people have actually heard of are “Stop the Cavalry” and “Driving Home for Christmas”, in case anyone wants something less sardonic)

Ohhh I love all this so much. I don’t even have any prior interests in the topics covered but this is what every site on Neocities should look like — using the capabilities of the modern web (Three.js wizardry) to make something one's own rather than just a shallow aping of Geocities sites from 1999

That’s a wrap on Lords of Misrule 2022! Thank you so much for all the submissions — it’s lovely to see a tradition continue, especially when i’d taken such a long sabbatical that i’d worried you’d all forgotten i’d existed. :-) Go check out the last entry, from a dear friend of mine — ’s not showing up on the feed because Reasons.

P.S. Dear Kyle, please make it so changes result in a new post every 20 hours instead of 24, or something like that. I’m begging you. I can’t keep waiting exactly 24 hours and 1 minute to update

Bilingual-website problems: Every time I try translating a page which refers to me in the third person into Dutch I end up wanting to throw my keyboard out of a window

“Die” (something like “that one”) in the nominative and “hen”/“hun” (“them” and “their”) elsewhere is the option which sounds *least* like nails on a chalkboard but AUUGGHHH WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS DUTCH WHY CAN’T YOU HAVE A NICE UNISEX THIRD-PERSON PRONOUN LIKE ENGLISH DOES

In addition to the latest Misrule entry, i’ve done up “A Christmas Carol” on the Codex with the original illustrations from 1843. ’Tis the season!

Changed the default sans-serif font for pages like the linkroll from Source Sans to Alegreya. Goodnight sweet pince......

(Reason being that Garamond, which most pages on my site use, is a very print-y, bookish font, and Source Sans *screams* “THIS IS A DIGITAL THING” — i wanted to replace it with something that looked a little more like it belonged in a book. Gill Sans was my first choice, but people on Android wouldn’t see it and i’m not coughing up two hundred quid just to use a nice font by a nonce from 1928.)

Lords of Misrule has begun! Even more people turned out this year than last, which is good, because i was beginning to worry you’d all forgotten i’d existed. :-) Submissions will be rolled out over the next few days.

Yes, technically it’s not the 17th yet, but i’m a tired man and i wanted to get a shift on — think of it as Christmas coming early.

...You could probably actually build something like this if you had the time. I only ask that anyone who does do it calls the machine Waymond

Lots of people make fun of Discord and Reddit mods. They say they're narcissistic, power-hungry pricks who get high off of banning people they disagree with. As someone who once moderated a fairly large Discord server, I can tell them that they are *absolutely* right jesus christ I'm never doing that again

I have so many war stories which you’ll probably never hear because i as a rule don’t talk about dumb internet drama on my website but trust me that shit sucked lmao

I'm European. Half of the mod team was American. I would frequently wake up and found out they'd banned someone for utterly ridiculous reasons and then i had to run damage control but not *actually* unban them because a majority of the mod team were in favour. Lots of ugly personal stuff involved too (which i’m really not in a position to share).

Anyway all this is to say that i’m not sure “Twitter but run by Discord mods and populated with exclusively the most annoying people from Twitter” is a great elevator pitch for your service

For the longest time i could not follow you back! Clicking on your profile would just take me to your website. Maybe I'm just terrible at technology

Ahhh, no, that was deliberate on my part — I’d “left” Neocities because some of the people on it were doing my head in, only coming back to check in occasionally. Turned my profile back on again recently because it turns out that also basically cratered the number of hits my site was getting lol
