This is a good time to remind y'all that Project 2025 equates "transgender ideology" to pornography.

New page tomorrow!

Sitekit has been updated! Three downloadable, annotated HTML/CSS files to make a quick homepage and image gallery, an asset checklist, and resources to help you customize all you want. thephooka.online/sitekit

Be aware that another shitty bill has been introduced: The SCREEN Act.

If passed, it would require Full. Age. Verification.

Like KOSA, call all your reps & tell them what a horrible idea this is.

Spread this pls.

The script to oppose KOSA (the Kids Online Safety Act) AKA The Big Bullshit Censorship Bill is now up on @5calls.org

We’ve already seen the results of this over the last few days in the U.K. with their Online Safety Act (OSA). Let’s make sure it dies off again. Call your reps ☎️

The only thing I haven't figured out how to fix for mobile on the site is scaling with an image map, but apparently no one else has either, lol.

I know I said I was only going to change style.css but I got sidetracked by flexboxes. If you're already using the older version of gallery.html you don't have to change anything in it if you don't want to.

Now mobile responsive! I also included code to make a responsive grid of images if you'd rather use that in your gallery than tables. Check my own gallery for examples!

New page tomorrow!

Doing site work today. If you see my gallery break no you didn't

Still from The Devils (1971): nuns in a pale, starkly lit tile room.

Still from The Devils (1971): A pale tiled rounded room with a crucifix at one end, and a nun tucked into a corner.

Still from The Devils (1971): a stage with cutouts of waves, and a performer imitating The Birth of Venus with a clamshell as a backdrop.

Still from The Devils (1971): a face dramatically lit from below, the background blurry and full of contrasting light.

The absolute gall of looking at these compositions and thinking it needs AI's greasy little fingerprints on it...

Obviously this ⬆️ is hideous and awful, but I am now dreading how this kind of shit is going to infect media where the original versions are already hard to find. 'Digital asbestos' is right.

The other day I went looking for a copy of The Devils (1971) as one does, but the most available version I found was full of comments talking about how cool it was that the uploader had 'touched it up' with AI, and it was so depressing I just closed the tab.

I figured out some bits tonight but trying to make the header vertically resize breaks it right now. I gotta go water the garden and wind down for the night tho.

I didn't originally make it mobile responsive bc 1) I didn't think to, 2) don't like browsing the internet on my phone anyway and 3) don't know how to (you couldn't even do that when I first learned HTML lol)

Note: this sitekit is not currently mobile responsive! I'm working on that, but it'll have to wait til tomorrow evening at least. Any changes made will be to styles.css and I'll have a little changelog so you can copy just the updated parts of the code, in case you've already customized your CSS.

I didn’t design it to be mobile responsive, so that’s likely why. I’ll look into how easy it is to fix when I get home!

White Noise has updated! May as well have all the hard conversations at once tonight. www.white-noise-comic.com/comic/i1-rbs37 #webcomics #comics #whitenoise

We'll have a couple 1-3 page comics, some vignettes, and then a slightly longer comic (idk how long yet--it was going to be 4 pages but it's already getting away from me) followed by another 'chapter' length story like RBS.

Ok! Hiatus info:

ok I'm done now! I'll be back later. I think I have my hiatus schedule worked out for after RBS ends so I'll let y'all know about that.

Btw our other 'dinner table' issues are stuff like economic collapse, how hard it is to find a job, how expensive shit is, how much it sucks to be an artist online, the AI bubble, how fucked up healthcare is--notably things Dems are also largely doing nothing about! Huh!
