Jun. 1st, 2026 10:56 pmQuick note that post-by-email and comment-by-email is (sometimes?) failing silently without actually posting right now! I'm pretty sure this is related to last night's shenanigans and will be fixed once Mark can finish the full fix for it, which he's working on, but if you've posted or replied by email in the last 24 hours, fish it out of your sent folder to check if it posted!
EDIT: This should be fixed as of around 7AM EDT! We *believe* everything that was stuck in the plumbing has been sent along to your journal or the comment thread it was meant for; it's definitely not where it was stuck anymore, at least.

Admin Post: Challenge #6: Pride 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Jun. 2nd, 2026 06:53 amIt's still June 1st somewhere!
The theme the June 2026 challenge is…
queer & trans pride!
June is Pride Month in the USA (where I'm from) and Japan (where I live) so our theme for this month is LGBTQIA+ Pride! As always, there are a lot of ways to interpret this: make a mix for your sapphic OTP, a book by a queer author, your favorite trans/nonbinary headcanon, a collection of gay love songs, etc.
Themes are optional and old challenges don't end, so if you missed a past challenge or feel inspired to do your own thing, you can still post those fanmixes!
If you post a mix for this challenge, please remember to tag it with challenge 6: pride.
Here are the posting guidelines if you need a refresher.
Don't forget: the
3weeks4dreamwidth Mini Mix Meme is still going, too~ I'm going to leave it open indefinitely.
Fanmixers might also be interested in joining
seasons_of_fandom, a panfandom land comm, and participating in Season 2, Challenge #10: Would You Listen to the Spring?, a character fanmix challenge with a twist. (Tell them
matsushima sent you if you sign up. *ahem*)
P.S. I hope I don't have to say this but there is no LGB without the T and if I see any transphobic nonsense here, you will be banned. This was your warning. 🏳️⚧️

What are the best mobile-friendly styles?
Jun. 1st, 2026 12:56 pmI did check the tags before posting this, but I didn't see anything. There are a lot of styles that look great on a computer, but condense the text/entry area to a narrow vertical column when read on a mobile device. Mobility seems to be the best one for mobile (obviously) but I kind of hate the way it looks on a computer. Does anyone know a decent theme which allows for some customization (like custom backgrounds) but looks decent and reads decently on a mobile device? Or is there something I can throw into the custom CSS section of the customize theme page to fix this? I'd love to use the 5 AM theme, but it kind of looks like crap on my phone. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I have switched back to Practicality. Thanks for your feedback, everyone.

May. 31st, 2026 10:00 pmRobby has managed to put in a temporary fix for the site errors and things failing to refresh or not showing up where they should! The permanent fix is going to need Mark's experience, and unfortunately -- seriously, this literally never fails -- Mark has been on an international flight all day, because of course he has. (Never. Fails. He and I are not allowed to both take vacation at once.)
The site will work just fine with the temporary fix in place, things just might be a little slow here and there. We'll keep you updated.
Project Hail Mary: Hail Mary, Full Of Grace
May. 31st, 2026 08:54 pmTitle: Hail Mary, Full Of Grace
Fandom: Project Hail Mary
Characters/Pairings: This is actually a general mix for the book and film, but due to the nature of the story, I'd say that the focal character is Dr. Ryland Grace.
Notes: Notes deliberately omitted because I earnestly believe that Project Hail Mary is best experienced with as few spoilers as possible. This is a pretty loose take on a manifesto and more of a general fanmix, but I adore both the book and its film adaptation and tried to choose a range of songs that really exemplify its appeal to me. Go check it out if hopeful sci-fi is your jam!
LISTEN ON YOUTUBE.

This bundle supports Starlight Children's Foundation:
With most manga ebook volumes costing around $7 USD (sometimes fifty cents less, sometimes a few dollars more), you only need to be interested in three of the volumes available in the complete bundle to justify the cost—and the total bundle has 61 volumes! That's just under thirty cents per tankoubon.

This bundle will close in about three weeks.

Guest Books?
May. 30th, 2026 07:51 amDoes anyone use a guest book on their smallweb site?
This recent Tumblr post has me thinking about fandom interactions. Currently, I've put a LOT of work into my Neocities site but I have no way of knowing if people are enjoying said site, or finding it useful, other than to look at my stats every now and then.
Hence thinking about adding a guest book. While doing some web searching, I found atabook which looks nice, and it certainly would be easier than building something myself. I'd be interested to hear others' thoughts on guest books in general, and what solutions you use if you do use a guest book.

With most manga ebook volumes costing around $7 USD (sometimes fifty cents less, sometimes a few dollars more), you only need to be interested in five of the volumes available in the complete bundle to justify the cost—and the total bundle has 61 volumes! That's just over fifty cents per tankoubon.
