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.

And likewise to you! Your site's design is giving me some fantastic ideas (and finally pushed me to start playing with CSS animation).

I've started figuring out CSS animations and I'm having altogether too much fun with this.

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.

Woo, learning! I like to skim the W3 HTML reference from time to time and see what I can pick up from that. Details is great.

Ignore six for now; was updating five to have a drawing and figured I'd get the placeholder in there in case I need to edit on laptop.
No new thought, just adding dropcaps and indents via a stylesheet.
