Moving the Blog: Because fuck Automattic

Scrooge 

And the ultimate bloging begins

I am using this as an opportunity to really dust off the blog and rewrite some beloved old posts, which means I'm going through each one manually. This does, however, mean things has been slow work. Especially since I am doing this totally from scratch. So I am compromising and publishing updates in chunks instead of leaving the blog offline for months to come.

I could use all the support I can get here, folks, cos in the end on top of trying to move away from Patreon I'm basically shooting myself in the feet and making new better feet just because I hate Tumblr THAT much. I hope this is worth it. Please god

  • I like my new individual chat display (see wings article)
  • I don't know why categories aren't sorting correctly, I'll get to that.
  • Category/tag pagination is stupid right now Fuck Art Fuck Art Fuck Art
  • But you can look at tags at all now Billy Face Betcha didn't know there were tags. Well there are.

I spent most of today working on a script to make this conversion process faster so hopefully I'll be able to churn out more going forward. I'd like to turn it into a daily event if I wasn't in a state of agony.

And that's October 2015 down! I also finally fixed embeds on Discord!

So, fun fact, this was Eggware's very first Halloween season and started the tradition of me playing ~spooky~ ~nightmare fuel~ video games every year. I have a soft spot for these articles, they were admittedly pretty sensationalist, but... c'mon man, we were 10 years younger.

Kind of funny to see it sandwiched in between yet another article about Popeyes' homogeneous but gloriously affordable chicken boxes. IT'S NOT FAIR
