The scene opens on the second day of Rosh Hashanah as the dawn light comes up, slowly over a minute or more illuminating the bed in which Natalie and Liz doze together, not quite asleep. Eventually, from offstage the sound of the weekly trash collection is heard.
Natalie: Happy garbage day.
Liz: Happy garbage day.
Natalie: Garbage day tovah.
A pause. Liz snickers.
Natalie: Yom ha'garbage.Both women break down laughing uncontrollably, until Liz gets up and begins her day.

posted my least favorite thing about all my friends' BearBlogs is the total lack of avatars. if I don't have a fursona or selfie or silly little guy next to a post who I can imagine reading it to me, what's even the point

posted on moonbase.lgbt In early 2024, I spent a couple of afternoons digging up old code, putting together a new renderer, and getting everything in place. Rust code would extract the game’s drawings, render them as SVGs, and produce a JSON manifest file, while posting to Cohost would be handled in Python using valknight’s Cohost.py. I teased the bot’s existence with a screenshot of the game’s infamous DRAINPIPE glitch puzzle, and a day later on February 14th, it went live.
I’d also snuck a few custom-made easter eggs into the pool of drawings — I had to include a few renditions of eggbug, the Cohost mascot, after all.
EGGBUG by @lunasorcery Luna wrote up a really nice post about her NES Pictionary bot that covers both the implementation and the place it held in Cohost's heart. I never engaged with the bot much, but I enjoyed seeing it reblogged onto my feed with funny captions, so it's lovely to hear a more thorough account of its history and see some of the most impressive user submissions.
I think Luna made the right choice letting the bot end with the site. It was part of the fabric there in a way it couldn't be elsewhere. Good night, sweet robo-prince.

Brendan McLeod asked: Cohost grid generator!
Hey, just wanted to thank you for making cohost grid generator, and hoping that you will keep it up online! It works great with bearblog and it makes my media posts look nice!
Yeah, I plan to keep all my generators online more or less indefinitely (except maybe letterboxd which does cost a bit of money to host a proxy). I might actually rework the grid generator a bit to be more explicitly targeted at general websites rather than just Cohost. Maybe add a mode where it provides you a simple stylesheet so it can use fewer inline classes and actually make the text properly responsive so captions look better on phones.
