Biggest idiot of all. Why don't I know these things? I can see me messing around with a lot of css in the future. Thanks Skep. You are a genius

Oh god, I can nev keep those things straight. I think I have already been using rem, but I will check as I hypothetically redesign my website.

yeah, like the sleep (em is a font's native size, relative to the parent element; rem is a font's native size, relative to the document)

To simplify (and generalize) a bit, rems and ems are relative units; they're good when you want a measurement to be flexible based on a font size.

I started using those recently, they are very cool but it is a little cursed to set font size as a percentage of the browser width

Moved the site options to a button menu and other minor tweaks. I think it should work fine. Give a holler if anything is broken.

I just kind of feel like our lists are bizzaro versions of each other's. This is what I would say mine is, in no particular order:

The Christmas Song, O Little Town of Bethlehem, Hark the Herald Angels Sing, White Christmas, Jingle Bell Rock, God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen, Silent Night, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let it Snow, All I Want for Christmas is You

That Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer with Bing Crosby and Ella Fitzgerald is a banger, though.

Shout-outs to Snoopy's Christmas for being to my knowledge the only Christmas song about World War I dogfighting and mortal enemies destined to kill one another

I love Good King Wenceslas. My favorite guilty pleasure Christmas song is Christmas in Las Vegas by Richard Cheese

I can't listen to "Duel of the Fates" unless it is the music video version. Also, your lack of any songs from "Christmas in the Stars: Star Wars Christmas Album" is disturbing.

SO real. Atp in my life I'd rather just go somewhere, or like maybe expendable food is okay, but even that is getting to be a bit much because I literally have snacks piling up and going rancid :E|

I could explain it in detail with images and code snippets and stuff but I'd need some sort of dedicated web space for that
sorry to be That Person but i think neocities auto-generates an rss feed that mirrors the profile (all site updates)!
so everyone on neocities has an rss feed; c.f.: https://neocities.org/site/sorbier.rss [[[credits to suboptimalism for documenting this functionality]]]
This is both true and something I was aware of going in, and I really don't have anything to say in my defense except: not those, those are bad
As someone who still uses an RSS reader daily, I'd love to see a list of sites that have a feed. I want more sites to follow. Also spent some time trying to figure out how to make an RSS feed just this past weekend. I think I figured it out. Maybe.
skep i only half-read this post but add my rss to whatever list you're building. also if anyone needs help making an RSS feed you can ask me or skep how to do so. don't use the auto-feeds; they are bad
