Cool. Let me know if you find problems.
I'm trying to keep the feel pretty similar while making it mobile friendly as well. The missing left sidebar is probably the biggest difference in the UI, but you can bring it back with an option in the profile settings. It will still disappear if the browser window isn't big enough regardless, however.
Just in general, the beta board: https://beta.buffistas.me is very much ready for testing. Migration is still only partial (thread positions, bookmarks, blocked users, subscriptions are not migrated currently) but threads, posts, and users are migrated from a month and a half ago so it is possible to log in with your existing credentials (you'll be forced to reset your password for security reasons, though you can reuse your current one) and there are plenty of threads and posts to mess around with. Posting works fine, but all data on the beta board will be deleted at some point in the future.
Congrats, Stephanie!
DCistas, has the weather been worse than usual the last few weeks, or am I just getting outside less? The humidity feels unbearable, and I'm literally dripping in sweat from even a short walk. On the other hand, I'm still using a cane while recovering from back surgery, so a "short walk" takes more time and effort than it did last year.
I've been in dc for the weekend and I can confirm it's been super disgustingly humid. I don't know how that compares to usual though, I've lost any tolerance for humidity over 60 degrees, since moving to the PNW
msbelle, for me, temperature changes trigger a hot flash (hi, Cindy!), but I don't find myself colder than usual. I'm sort of on the other side of it, though, and the hot flashes are all I have left to deal with. When they come on, they are a killer, though.
Stephanie, it's good to see you here! Sometimes it feels like yesterday you were sitting the bar exam and nursing your oldest at the same time! You do amazing work, and we're all incredibly proud of you.
So, a text from my mother, and I realize why I'm so sad about Mike Capuano -- it feels like the end of my father's era. And now I've been weepy all afternoon, and I have to snap out of it, so no sympathy, please! I can't take it.
Bad day. It's making it hard to concentrate. I hope this thing I'm working on doesn't need too much fixing.
Huh, appears to have worked first time. At least I'm making progress.
Hot flashes are the worst! I've been having them for 3 years and would like them to stop now. They are less frequent now, I've gone from 10-15 a day to only 5 or so now, but they still suck. I used to be cold all the time then I had half my thyroid removed and started taking synthroid and the constant cold is all gone. Bodies are weird.
Alex Jones just got in Marco Rubio's face, and Rubio swatted him down (metaphorically). I can't believe I'm rooting for Rubio, however briefly. What the hell, 2018.
