denise posting in

I keep forgetting to post about this: we've been troubleshooting the "missing notifications" problem for the past few days. (Well, I say "we", really I mean Mark and Robby; I'm just the amanuensis.) It's been one of those annoying loops of "find a logical explanation for what could be causing the problem, fix that thing, observe that the problem gets better for some people but doesn't go away completely, go back to step one and start again", sigh.

Mark is hauling out the heavy debugging ordinance to try to find the root cause. Once he's done building all the extra logging tools he needs, he'll comment to this entry. After he does, if you find a comment that should have gone to your inbox and sent an email notification but didn't, leave him a link to the comment that should have sent the notification, as long as the comment itself was made after Mark says he's collecting them. (I'd wait and post this after he gets the debug code in but I need to go to sleep and he's not sure how long it will take!)

We're sorry about the hassle! Irregular/sporadic issues like this are really hard to troubleshoot because it's impossible to know if they're fixed or if they're just not happening while you're looking. With luck, this will give us enough information to figure out the root cause for real this time.

addme

Name: Rhi, rhymes with sea, she/her

Age: early 30s

I mostly post about: Probably mostly books I read, music, fandom, and for the foreseeable future my much-planned writing project of noir biofuturistic middle-aged vampire lesbian erotica

My hobbies are: Writing, reading, music, being in nature (not "hiking" because I'm disabled but ykwim), watching video game letsplays

My fandoms are: Arthuriana, Skyrim, Baldur's Gate 3, Dragon Age (the first two), Homer, Dracula, Nero Wolfe, TTRPGs in general, a lot of random books

I'm looking to meet people who: I might gravitate toward accounts that also post about books, or post fandom meta...post about music...but I like hearing from people who have interests different from mine, too, as long as everyone's on a similar page on humans respecting each other as covered in the dealbreakers question :p

My posting schedule tends to be: Probably less than once a day and more than once a week

When I add people, my dealbreakers are:
My journal is 18+ only.
Bigotry including but not limited to racism, transphobia, ablism, sexism, or religious intolerance (including weirdos who hate atheists).
Strongly believing there is such a thing as "good art" and "bad art." Using "sees nuance" to mean "agrees with me."

Before adding me, you should know: I also have an Intro post here

NAME: just call me nerdsorrow for now <3.

AGE: I am thirty or forty years old! I don't mind being followed or messaged by the legally minor, the gen zees/gen alphas are doing a lot of good web art/retro revival stuff right now. my journal is gen atm, I will likely make a private community for writing if I start posting fic or other nsfw.

I MOSTLY POST ABOUT: Art (other people's) (especially smallweb and multimedia stuff), writing (other people's), music, movies, etc. There will be the inevitable diaryposting and a bit of personal art, but I want to share cool stuff I've found.

I AM LOOKING FOR: Do you post about art, music, movies, etc? If you ever do even a little bit at all of recs or reviews, comment here. If you share your own art of any kind, comment here! It's so hard to find good new things on this evil internet.

SUBSCRIPTION/ACCESS POLICY: Currently all my stuff is public, if I use this more intensively, I may make personal/diary posts private

Name: I'm Nix/Nyx. (Either spelling is fine.) I also use "they/them" by default, but any pronouns are fine and good.

Age: 28.

I mostly post about: my personal life, which often means things that have happened recently or my mental or physical health. Sometimes I'll also post about hobbies and interests. I do want to post about my interests more, but sadly my health can take over my life quite a bit.

My hobbies and interests are: Music (particularly singing and learning bass right now), streaming (particularly VTubing), and playing video games are some of my main hobbies. I also try to read (mostly nonfiction) and want to get into writing again. I really like alt fashion and doing fun makeup, but sadly haven't been dressing up or touching makeup much lately. Oh, and I occasionally delve deep into researching psychology every now and then, so you might see something related to that. It's hard to name more specific interests right now, but I'm currently attempting to watch One Piece up to where I took a break from reading the manga, which is no small task. I've also been playing Arknights: Endfield, old MMORPGs, and Overwatch lately.

I'm looking to meet people who: have similar interests or also live with chronic illness, disability, mental health conditions, and/or are neurodivergent.

My posting schedule tends to be: very sporatic. I tend to use this site very sporatically in general.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: At the very least, I would only like to add people who lean politically left. No right-wingers or centrists, please. I don't have the brain power to name all of my stances right now, but a few of them people might have problems with are being pro Palestine (and anti genocide in general) and rights for marginalized people in general. We don't have to agree on everything politically if you're comfortable with that. (It really depends on the specific things and the cirumstances.) I guess my main dealbreaker is not being left-leaning. Oh, and I don't want to add anyone under 18. Generally I'd prefer to add people who are 20 and up.

Before adding me, you should know: I post a lot about my life and health, which understandably isn't for everyone. I'm also very shy and often have trouble getting back to DMs or comments. While I try my best to comment, I can't always think of something to say or might be low on energy, so if it's okay with you, I might comment "❤︎" (or something similar) on posts I've read.

Edit: One more thing. I prefer to mutually subscribe before giving full access to my journal!

That's it I think! Thanks for reading. ❤︎

Name: S.

Age: 30s

Location: UK

I mostly post about: I try to keep it light, varied and enjoyable to other people; probably a focus on books, art and culture. I keep track of books I’m reading by posting excerpts. I treat the internet like I’m chatting with strangers in line at the grocery store / like I’m sending postcards to friends. (Things I don’t write about: people in my life, my job, my politics.)

My hobbies are: Writing, art and photography, STEM, history, vintage fashion, design, cooking, visiting museums/galleries, long walks in the countryside.

My fandoms are: I’ve sometimes written fic but for the most part I don’t really ‘do’ fandom. I like classic literature, British miniseries, old crime novels, genre fiction, war dramas, historical fiction, and (often obscure) character actors; I largely avoid YA and franchises.

I'm looking to meet people who: I like people who are kind, at ease with themselves, intellectually curious, and have mostly offline hobbies. I like to interact with mutuals regularly (I probably won’t comment on every entry and I don’t expect that everyone will comment on all of mine, but I like to maintain correspondence). We don’t need to know everything about each other. Also, I’m not truly a prude but to all intents and purposes please do treat me like one; I will do the same to everyone else.

My posting schedule tends to be: Variable, but approximately once a week.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: Unsolicited advice, insufficient grass-touching, relentless negativity, too much fandom-posting (I just won’t have much to contribute!). I’d prefer not to add/be added by anyone under 18, even though my blog is very SFW.

Before adding me, you should know: Sometimes I’m very busy! And I’m Jewish.
