I thought it was going okay: I got 6 hours of sleep (unheard of!), I woke up on time, and work was moving along smoothly. But then… my cat got sick and a not-beloved coworker decided to be annoying, so I hit a snag for a while there. I’m back at it again, having survived the issue with my cat AND the co-irker, and the day is starting to look up again. Here’s hoping that the trend continues up tomorrow…

I’ve been using StoryGraph since it came around and really enjoy it. I’ve looked at BookWyrm, but I haven’t considered switching yet.

The article mentions the WaPo connection to Amazon and its board, as they should, but I’m surprised to see this particular topic there, too.

This particular paragraph is disingenuous in its characterization of what’s going on with Reddit, though:

There was also a concern that any major changes to the platform could scare people away. One former employee compared Goodreads to Reddit, an 18-year-old internet forum where users are revolting because of modifications to the site. “People feel like they can’t anger the community,” the former employee said.

The Artisan’s Coop is building itself right now. Only time will tell how successful it will be, but they’re taking their time to try to build a useful and real cooperative.

These little dudes always look so put out from the front perspective!

Just a few tweaks, because you’ve done so much of the work that I needed already. (I think the hardest part of re-theming is picking colors that work well, and you did that to perfection.)

• upvote hover and activated upvote color
• navbar links and hover
• comment text color (this bit is personal preference due to some color deficiencies on my end)
• updated info root color to match theme
• change modlog colors to my own preferences based on your themed colors

One of the reasons I find theming colors so difficult is that I have color determination deficiencies (not full color blindness). One reason I love my web services job is that my organization has a marketing team to determine the colors, so I can do my CSS theming for our products based off the pre-determined hex codes. :D

Most often not even taking the things that made the plundered product great in the first place, unfortunately.

Beehaw Dark is exactly what I’ve been looking for as a starting place, and I can adjust minimal things here and there if I need to. Thanks for taking the time to make and share these with us!

This was a trip back in time, seeing things like Meebo and Picasa that G purchased and killed off. 😕

I’m here for it.

Dang, I wasn’t expecting Stargate outta nowhere…

Our cat gets arthritis injections, and it helps her so much! I hope Champ gets as much relief from them as she does.

My organization just switched from this a few weeks ago! 😬

Very Being John Malkovichian…

I’m in the same boat as you. 7 Wonders is okay, but I adored 7 Wonders Duel and find myself going back to it again and again with my spouse.

Thumbs up!

I never understood why it wasn’t more popular! I tried others but always came right back to Joey.

I’ve used Joey for years. (I’ve never used the official app.)

I’m not using anything right now and have deleted one of my accounts. I’ll be deleting the other one in the next week.

Our girl is 17, and she has the same uncanny ability to know when I’m going to try to take a picture—even if she’s dead asleep!

Oh, she’s so beautiful!

Guys. It even works for Spider-Man.
