I’m giving it a try, probably foolishly. I’m really not sure. It has larger different font. Even with infinity scrolling it’s really not sure, and crashed on me. The only thing I sort of like is I can change the colour pallette. There’s not a lot of choice, and you have to go through all of them - there’s no menu, or at least I didn’t find it. I’m probably going to nope out of it

I noped too! Not heard good things about it at all (but what else could we expect really…)

The only thing I’ve heard about it so far is that if you have your dash set to only show like 10 posts at a time, it breaks that and enables unlimited scroll instead. Which, tbh, is enough for me to nope out of it. I have my dash set the way it is for a reason.

All of this is boiling down to “why bother” for me.

The only thing I want from Tumblr is 1) threaded comments and 2) functioning blacklists, and XKit gives me as close to that as I can really get, and I’ve got Dreamwidth for the rest, so what the fuck am I going to beta-test for them? Shit I don’t want? Different font sizes? Listen I leave literally every site on the default theme as long as it exists, so why the fuck would I want to customize my dashboard appearance? I don’t look at Tumblr at work and I can’t think of another reason. (Naturally those of you with vision problems etc have your reasons, I’m not pooh-poohing the whole idea, but honestly I haven’t tried to customize anything since I got my own Windows 95 computer and tweaked literally every possible setting and then forgot how to change it back so for my entire college career my mouse gestures made Monty Python noises and I just forgot that wasn’t normal, so.)

Some Michaels stores have a Hobby aisle with Dragon figures. They’re like 5-8" tall … https://www.michaels.com/safari-ltd-twilight-dragon/10287820.html

Maybe something like: https://www.darkknightarmoury.com/dragon-statues

I asked for clarification and she says probably he’d like a stuffed dragon.

So. My thought is, he’d like something rad-looking that could double as like one of those pillows you lean against to read. So maybe I’ll try to make something? Is this how I die? Probably, telling myself it’d be no big deal to make a giant stuffed dragon for my nephew who I’m not even going to see for Christmas. 

Like… just take a pillow, and then add a head on one end, a tail on the other, and some legs, and then patchwork it into some really cool scale texture somehow. Like… how hard could this be? Really hard, I’m an idiot. But. That’s what I’m thinking of. I even have an old body pillow that’s still mostly fine but the cover is threadbare and gross, which I could just repurpose into the middle of this thing.

I don’t have time for this. I’m buying everyone sketchbooks. But maybe I’ll still make it. Who knows. I missed his birthday so whatever.
