Love the off-kilter floatiness of the 404 "remain", and how the link is both ominous and accessible. The /found poem is also so familiar. Such a peace with that kind of dusty relationship I don't often see.

Troubleshooting the dark mode issue you mentioned- what browser were you using at the time? Might be a browser-specific issue since it tests normal on Firefox, Chromium, and Safari on my end, so knowing which browser lets me troubleshoot.

I'm using firefox! It's the case on noth of my PCs and my phone running firefox, even if I force-clear the cache. I'll test my extensions after work but it's just ublock origin and a password manager.

Huh! Which version of Firefox? That's the first browser I test on for both mobile and PC, so it's odd that it's not working on your end- now I'm even more curious what's going on.

Mobile is running 114.1.0 (Build #2015955411), but I doubt all my devices are on the same version. I do have a flag that sends websites dark mode requests, somehow, so I was wondering if it was a default background color being set differently by my browser or some weird CSS interaction like that.

Comfirmed that if I take my firefox out of dark mode, it makes the colors what they're supposed to be.

Thanks for all the details- to clarify, the Firefox flag is linked to the problem? That gives me something to look into if that's the case. If I can track down that flag, then I'll figure out how to make it cooperate if possible. Just to check, is it only on the sitemap/sitelog, or pages with the regular style as well?

That was enough information for me to replicate the problem! Manually set theme in the browser, right? I think I see it- I didn't set a variable properly for the Gummy Shark theme's dark mode, so it was reverting back to light colors where I forgot to set dark alternatives. Not sure why it didn't show up with the OS dark theme for me, but I think I fixed it- thank you for sticking with me on troubleshooting this!

Fantastic! All fixed. :) Thank you as well for playing along. And yeah, I've also got my desktops on dark mode but firefox has a separate theme that will change the defaults of some(?) pages. How do you have the CSS check for light/dark mode, by the by? Maybe I should add a light mode to my site :p

A media query! @media screen and (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {}, but @media screen and (prefers-color-scheme: light) {} works as well. Optionally, also add :root {color-scheme: light dark;} to tell the browser I support both light and dark (but prefer light; you'd want dark first).

Lots of little updates today- mostly styling, with a few tweaks to existing pages.

I continue to be charmed by the overabundance of sharks in the regular background, and the new border is fun. The CSS for the non-eona pages interacts strangely with my browser's dark mode flag, I think? Looks fine in the neocities preview but when I actually view it, both the text and the content boxes are dark colors.

Huh, odd. I'll check over the dark mode media query changes and see if something broke- thanks for letting me know.
Can definitely relate to the stylesheet nuking urge. Figma prototyping is a smart idea! May need to try it. I usually scratch the itch by either refining the existing sheet (can I make it shorter? cleaner?) or making templates and sharing those in hopes of helping out a new webmaster somewhere.

Making templates is a great idea too, tbh, I am considering doing that just to exercise my ~design~ skills!

I may sound basic for this but I love playing Arctic Monkeys songs lol. And I know one (1) RHCP song so maybe that makes me less basic haha! Nice to see a fellow bassist on here as well <3

Thanks for the link. Some interesting points you've brought up there about web mentions. Might make a little update on my post just to keep people in the know. Speaking of links, I think the link on your changelog is broken.

making a lot of site updates because blaseball died and I have a lot of work to do to get it up to date with everything I created, and to make sure people can reach out to me. Added a guestbook, working on fixing the nightmare of the fic section, added some new things to the Ticker, ect.

I always love to see people reimagining gender and especially gendered language as part of their worldbuilding. What a delightful read! Very thoughtful. It's also made me realize that neopronouns are pretty revolutionary, actually, when it comes to their ability to disambiguate between potential referents and putting a picture in the listener's head. Thanks for the thoughts!

This worldbuiding is very interesting, especially the idea of genders going hand in hand with careers. What would happen, though, if there was a carpenter who lost both their hands or something that prevented them from working? Would they count as a retired carpenter? what if they needed to find a new job just for the sake of making more money? This is fascinating.

Will have to catch up on Eona stuff when I have a bit more time, but I really enjoyed crash. It's got such good sounds for reading out loud, and it reminds me very much of my favorite scene from Everything Everywhere All At Once.

Thank you! Glad to hear it- that poem's one I've been rewriting repeatedly ever since early high school. I think this is one of the first versions I've been mostly happy with.

I think I finally fixed the problems I caused by using flexbox on the index- wow, that sure did have ramifications. Definitely need to do some more CSS cleanup since the quick fix is ugly.
