They did! The ones I didn't cook well enough soaked up most of the salt though -- but the crispy ones tasted pretty nice :))

New blog post. No it's not the project I'm working on, and the flow of logic is probably not the most...Clear? I don't know, I will let it sit for a bit before coming back to fix any mistakes. https://flying-with-quills.neocities.org/blog/most-recent

I definitely get you here. There's a lot of branches of Christianity, and even outright cults that claim to be Christian and inter-fighting with each other. I still do believe that we need to call out things that are blatantly against the Bible, but at the same time, some of the things Christians are fighting over doesn't really matter as much as they think it does.

Well said! It drives me nuts when Christians of a denomination claim that those of other non-heretical denominations aren't saved, because that's denying Christ's saving power as it's revealed in the Gospel by adding extra requirements to salvation. >:( We should be able to acknowledge others as having genuine faith in the same God even if we think they may be in error in other areas (i.e. baptism, communion, etc.)

I never heard about this game before, but when I was looking for images to my banner (Neko no Ongaeshi) I came across it on google images. But since now I have a rec, I am going to check it, thanks!

Augustine is so funny to read because he will often say, "anyway, as I was going to say," and then goes on another rabbit trail before finally quickly summing up the point. Truly, a man after my own heart.

Also very random but I found something super neat. If you love Princess Tutu or grew up watching it (like me!) and have always wanted more, here's a cool fan-project you might like! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZsWPZZJ3ec

It's a series called Princess Tutu Zwei, and I haven't watched much of it yet but it's about events after everything that happened and if Duck/Ahiru was able to remain a girl. :) The animation is very smooth and the style matches the anime style almost exactly imo!

@ the comment about gore -- yeah, I understand that! The problem is, I'm an enjoyer of horror that many Christians would consider to be "glorifying" it (i.e. zombies, ghosts, obscene monsters etc etc) so I'm not really sure what to say in the rules still. I mean, there's bad horror (snuff films) and good horror but Idk if a lot of Christians are aware of that distinction or even think it matters. :/

2 likes

flying-with-quills 1 year ago

And I think another thing is whether enjoying horror makes you not-a-Christian, since that's really what the rules are for. Are you a Christian on the internet? Welcome to the webring! Idk if I should really dictate anything else besides things that are legitimately signs of someone being not in the Faith.

That's a good point! I wasn't entirely sure how I'd clarify it myself without adding complication to the rules. ^^; In any case, I do think you have the right approach.

New layout finished! It's still a teeny bit hodged podged but I like it. Also someone on my guestbook said "saying heavy gore is an exception to nsfw is absolutely insane, i don’t understand how you can call yourself moral or christian and be okay with that kinda stuff!" and I've gotten that kind of blow-back a LOT (one guy told me I'm a devil worshipper XD) so expect a post talking about -

why I think the horror genre is (well, cool, I love creepy things and monster designs) and an important media method

flying-with-quills 1 year ago

Although actually maybe I should change the wording on the rules anyway since I meant moreso "extreme horror" rather than "the most awful bloody array you've ever laid eyes on." And that's a pretty reasonable complaint _(:з)∠)_

Your new homepage is way better than the old one, u really well done.

With stuff like gore, I think it depends on the intent, like "displaying the horrors of war to make a point about why war is awful", which is much different than glorifying such things. It might be worth clarifying in the rules.

I'm getting a strong urge to completely redo my website once again. Now that I know a little bit more code, I'm annoyed by how hodge-podged the background image is. And I don't want to have to redo the image in order to move things around...

I hyperfocused a little too close to the sun but I wrote a pretty foundational piece of my Thesis. I wrote. 8 pages in one sitting. It's not reviewed yet (I'm having it reviewed by both my teacher and Dr. Collender himself) so it's probably very messy. Also, could not find a text-to-HTML converter which would convert italics. sadge.

I'm sorry to hear that and I agree. There's not a whole lot of spaces for Christians. However, we knew this would not be an easy road from the beginning, and you're doing the right thing. Keep being the salt and light, and speaking truth in love.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE message me if you have any concerns or questions! Particularly about some of the rules, I did my best to make them clear but that's not really up to me! :) And if you have a different opinion on some of the rules, you can message me about that too I won't be mean. ^-^ (I already got kicked out of a seperate webring because of them though kek)
