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.

ECLIPSE. April 6, 2026.  Totality, beyond Earth. From lunar orbit, the Moon eclipses the Sun, revealing a view few in human history have ever witnessed.

First photo from the far side of the Moon. Captured from Orion as Earth dips beyond the lunar horizon


Following the current Artemis mission + rolling around in art and nature photography is keeping me going atm. Slingshotting in space!

+ The seagulls are napping and grooming on our windowsills a lot and it's been a treat. I often find myself watching Bird TV. With the stains on the glass they don't seem to notice us there, so you get a wild animal puffing up and resting 30cm from your face. Always a delight.

+ If like me you're still enamored with Project Hail Mary and need images to make icons from, [personal profile] theskyisnew's got you covered 👎

+ Sad Starfleet Academy got cancelled, though I strongly suspected that would be the case. What I didn't expect was that they'd already finished shooting season 2. So that's something. Probably a cliffhanger nightmare but I'll take it.

Letter from Alex Kurtzman and Noga Landau. )

+ Already considering rewarding myself with a purchase after the trip. The Embodied Ecosystems TarOracle is looking like a strong contender, both for the art/theming, and the chunky guidebook it comes with. But then there's the fanmade X-Files tarot I spotted that's calling to me. Hmm. (I finished season 1 btw. Mulder didn't know lycanthropy transferred through bites/scratches?? Press x-files to doubt. S2 will have Scully revert back to not believing in aliens, huh? I remember being extremely annoyed back in the day and surely that can't have been based off s1. Mulder's hot takes have been deserving of a defenestration sometimes multiple times per episode.)

+ [community profile] 3weeks4dreamwidth is coming up, but I honestly feel there's not enough interest to make it work. I'm going to have to give it a think.

+ I'll be home in two and a half weeks so I'll just cling to that for now.

It's high time I reintroduce myself!

Name: Orbble
Pronouns: He/They
Age Group: I'm in my early 30s. Only looking to add folks 18 or older!
Country: USA
Subscription/Access Policy: Basically all access-only! Looking for folks who enjoy chatting, about shared fandoms, writing/fic in general, or just... life!

What I post about: General life updates, games I'm playing, and my fandoms. I like getting analytical about characters and want to post more of that. Occasionally I'll wax philosophical about life and the world through a fandon lens, which I also really enjoy doing.
I'm looking to connect with people who: Want to talk and share their enthusiasm, too! I'm a chatterbox who really wants to extend his fannish social circle - my work leaves me with a good amount of free time and I'd love to spend more of it engaging in fun talk!

I'm also looking to connect with people who are open-minded and accepting, and not interested in anti culture or the idea that censorship is a good thing. Absolutely not looking to connect with Trump supporters or other political extremists, nor TERFs or other transphobes. I will also note, I do best with people who aren't uncomfortable looking at the problems connected to their fandom and its creators/companies (I like multiple Disney properties and the Hellaverse, so... yeah...) but who are also understanding of the idea that there is no ethical consumption under capitalism, and that what one likes does not equal who you are. 

Main Fandoms: Pokemon (the games and the Horizons anime/early OG anime), Helluva Boss, Hazbin Hotel, Disney Duckverse (DuckTales and its reboot, the comics, etc)
Other Fandoms: Delicious in Dungeon, In Stars and Time, Steven Universe, Megaman NT Warrior (manga), Dimension 20's Cloudward Ho! and Fantasy High, The Muppets, Sonic the Hedgehog (the movies and the games, though I've only played a few) Lilo & Stitch, Tangled (though my feelings on the tv series for each are... mixed at best lol), Fraggle Rock. Inside Out, Zootopia, Kung Fu Panda, the Spider-Verse movies, Fire Emblem (Awakening, 3 Houses, Fates, Engage)
Favorite Ships: Blitzo/Stolas, Blitzo/Fizz, Fizz/Ozzy, Millie/Moxxie (Helluva Boss), Husk/Angel, Niffty/Baxter (Hazbin Hotel), Chilchuck/Marcille (Delicious in Dungeon), Protoman/Megaman, Lan/Chaud (NT Warrior), Comfrey/Daisuke, Maxwell/Torse (Cloudward Ho!), Judy/Nick (Zootopia), Jumba/Pleakley (Lilo & Stitch), Meowth/Pikachu (Pokemon anime), Rapunzel/Eugene (Tangled)

What I create for Fandom: Fanfic and meta! And occasionally icons, but mostly the other two.
Other Hobbies: Video games, reading, bracelet weaving, TTRPGs, icon making, and I've started getting into drawing this year!
