Hey! It’s time for another link roundup! But first, some housekeeping.

Cohost Minnesota Wake at Minnehaha Falls at 3pm

That’s today y’all! The link for the wake is here. Please come down! I’m gonna be there! This is just a quick refresher for everyone here to actually go!

Geoffrey Bunting on the Rolling Stone: The Digital Orphans of ‘Pokémon’

Honestly, Pokémon is super important to me. Anything that takes a close look at the games will make me feel warm and fuzzy. I will use my link shares as an excuse to shove Pokémon down your throat and I will not feel sorry about it.

Studio MillMint: Photovolumes

MillMint is a long running website/worldbuilding project I’ve been following for the past 7 years maybe that’s about 40% thinking too much about guns and military stuff and 60% talking about weird fictional versions of things I actually care about. And trains. It recently put out an update about this world’s fucked up computers. Please read about them.

Eleanor Konic: On what it means to not have time

Tim is right that if this were a big enough priority for me, I could get up at four in the morning every day and work in a quiet, locked office with no distractions. I might end up d…

i did it! i caught up on all my rss stuff. i fell behind a lot in september due to cohost shutting down and me having to focus a lot of my work on making my website. i figured out what rss client im gonna use (it’s lire), and i backread on everything added when i added the rss feeds. i’m all good now! things will definitely be good forever now.

i need to figure out a better system for this

I’ve been seeing some people in my circle doing link roundups, and I thought it’d be nice to join in. I have such a huge backlog of links to work through and maybe this could be a good way to get through all of them. I’m thinking of only doing five links per roundup, but let me know if you think that’s too many or too few. That’s enough waffling for now, here’s the links:

Austin Walker: i have been trying to find some words for cohost's final days for about a week now

I don’t have much to say here besides wow Austin is really good with words in a way that I am as impressed by as I am envious of.

Indie Hell Zone: Tangle Tower

This is just as much a recommendation for Tangle Tower as it is a recommendation for the review talking about it. Tangle Tower is a complete delight, and feels like the closest you can get to a modern Professor Layton. I thoroughly recommend it. Oh and also this review talking about it too, of course.

iA: Our Android App is Frozen in Carbonite

I’m as much of an Android hater as the next apple fangirl (they just don’t have the same rich indie scene as apple does, and every android-native app I’ve seen feels like it hates itself),…

This whole time I’ve imagined him looking like a weird bald sweaty white guy with a face that’s too red for his own good.

This is right on the heels of me being completely mistaken with how I imagined Tim Walz looking. I basically just imagined Tim Walz as looking like Matt Mullenwag and Matt Mullenwag as looking like Tim Walz.

she’s so scrunkly in this one

Good morning y’all. Cohost has now shut down and so here’s my inaugural “I am now posting here and only here” post.

I’m from the future and I don’t know what cohost is. What happened?

Cohost was a website that ran from 2022 to 2024. It was probably the best social media site ever made, and now it’s gone. Unfortunately, that’s the world we live in now, and so I have to do something new. That something new will be this site! Welcome to Evie On→Line. It’s by me, evie! I live in your computer.

What’s the plans for the future of this site?

Hoo boy do I have a lot planned. First off, the technical stuff:

• Fix comments
• Add a like button. Don’t worry, it won’t have numbers
• Make sure the styles are functional. Everything is currently held together with duct tape and a dream and I have enough CSS knowledge to do better than that.
• Improve the markup.

Now, the actual content stuff. There’s a lot in the works:

• Link roundups! I have literally thousands of links saved on different bookmarking services. My goal is to unify them and read them and send the best to all y’all. What’s the point in hoarding links…

also for all yall wondering. comments will come soon dw 💗 i’m working on it. prolly gotta also make a better system for avoiding name conflicts than just naming every file myself
