🤤 Anyone else feeling oddly ready to eat all of a sudden?

Fled is absolutely a capybara, perfect choice

It's just your OpenStreetMap username, doesn't have to a real name. You can set "your name" to be some anonymous gibberish if you'd like

That's why Belos is so evil

LEGO is for everyone, from 9 to 99! (Sorry centenarians, you'll have to go back to MegaBlox)

~~is that why belos is so evil?~~

You actually can't. I think you should be able to, but currently you can't. You can post from Masto to Lemmy by tagging the Lemmy community in the top level post, but tagging in a reply does nothing

In fact actually you can't even really crosspost from Lemmy to Lemmy. Posts that link to the same thing are lists as cross posts, but aren't actually directly related. Text-only posts can't be recognized as crossposts at all

Iirc someone made a tweet along the lines of "name something better than sex" to which another person replied "garlic bread." Then that got screenshoted and posted to one of the ace subreddits. The post took off and now we are forever associated with garlic bread

It's an unofficial, unaffiliated community for a show on YouTube. A little bit popular, only 300 million views on the pilot episode (the most viewed indie animation pilot on YouTube)

I made this a bit after the pilot so didn't get a chance to pick up on the initial hype. Hopefully episode 2 will reinvigorate things and it wont just be me posting here

Brought to you by the creators of the ATM Machine!

Awesome work! I added and rearranged a few, but I'm sure that will remain in flux for a while. Now on to the rest of the fields!

I definitely plan to make a separate post to announce it, but I figure it would probably be a good idea to at least the overall formatting done first (obviously filling the entire backlog is going to take a while)

I have officially done a thing.

It's a very early start, but hopefully communicates the idea. I'll slowly flesh it out over the coming days, and of course you may, too. The Data sheet is going to be a lot of checkboxes for everything, which will work well for filtering, but obviously a bit hard to read and a lot of blank space. So I also designated a Display sheet, which will be purely automated to read from Data and print just the relevant stuff in simple text

It's currently editable by everyone. I've started a few other similar projects like this that were globally editable without problems, but just in case I do have the power to revert and restrict (adding data validation and protected ranges will also help)

(also btw the evil!collectors are called the archivists)

Nice sleuthing! I totally forgot about Ready for Battle.

Swapping them would still make sense, but I think this order makes more sense. I read this as Amity upset that she didn't see Titan Luz yet, and then jaw-drop-amazed at it the first time (though tbf that would probably happen the second time, too, and the third time, and the fourth time...)

At this point Mark’s canon is all over the place, and finding old comics is pretty difficult

Uh huh. I wanted to look up Being Strong earlier, but I knew I didn't have time to find it.

I know the r/TOH wiki has lists of MM comics by theme (Angsty, "Cool", Funny, Heartwarming), but they're going on 2 years out-of-date now, so less helpful.

That site you linked is nicer for putting everything in one list and being up-to-date, but still kinda needs you to know the name or general time of the comic, else you need a tab explosion.

I've also made use of the "the library" on Tumblr account moringmark-tagged (particularly the archives), which doesn't do comic titles, but does add tags for all the characters/ships/time periods present. Only as useful as the least common character in the comic (good f'in luck if the only character you can remember is Luz), and you can only search by one tag at a time, but at least it's easier to skim through to look for what you want. ... Or at least, it was until Tumblr added a login wall recently.

Honestly at this point I'm pretty seriously temped to start a spreadsheet to track all the comics. Tag all the chars/etc like Tumblr, but also include a brief synopsis of each for better Ctrl+F-ability
