Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

The whole "Community Links" thing is borked, from an "edit" perspective..

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

It looks to me as though it does link to the same address you linked above in this thread. What was the end result of the edit that you wanted?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Got it. And got Fic, too, while I was at it.

Oops. I only looked in the TV folder for NAFDA threads.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The link editing functionality should be working for link owners now. Please holler if it's not.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

damn it. everytime I click on a NAFDA thread I get the NAFDA FAQ.

Can we add, "get Allyson a personal secretary to check threads throughout the day and email posts of interest" to the list?

I was going to mention that (not the secretary thing, you're on your own with the wetware) -- I've almost clicked on the NAFDA myself a few times. Maybe the link is better at the end of the slug, or only in the thread description.

Huh. I usually click right in the middle of the thread link, so it's never an issue.

Right now, the search algorithm works by relevance, which is a cloudy concept. I want to add in the ability to flip the order (ascending/descending) or to order by date.

I'm thinking that date order is a good default, but confusing to people used to relevance.

However -- ascending or descending?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
