i got a bit self conscious and deleted the post yesterday, but i’ll post it back; just a blog post of my experience with exploring my OCs and their gender expression: https://zhongvie.bearblog.dev/2025-09-26/

anyone have any music players they'd recommend? might be tempted to start hauling some of my playlists off spotify, so definitely would love one that allows you to make custom playlists (since i have them for my OCs) (alternatively wish there was a nicer way to share giant playlists w/other ppl so they can see your blorbo insanity)

drags hands down face. 4/8 oc pages have been moved into their own folders for organization's sake ... wish i had done this earlier but now i'm reaping the consequences (at least it'll make it easier to just have specific folders for each oc to pile in .js and .css snippets for JUST them)

very barebone gallery layout made for one oc ... thankfully since i'm reusing it, it's fine as it is (minus fixing the buttons and having to contend with hardcoded links bc my img folder is too far away from my other folders) o|< https://zhongvie.neocities.org/oc/khaliun/gallery

man one day i’d wanna have an online digital garden but the issue is the knowledge ive been storing in my obsidian has very little to do with each other, because i tend to be haphazard in my collection of knowledge and not seek out themes or specific things … something to ponder on. cause my unity learning =/= me researching how leaves turn red during autumn

That sounds really fun tho like… I love the idea of collecting everything, even if they don’t make sense… because there might be accidental threads between two topics like. How leaves change colors might somehow be connected to philosophies of love…

i hope one day that'll slowly arise from the knowledge i tuck away cause my brain doesn't think like that; curse of not really writing think pieces, and more just hoarding things is it's all scattered ... mayhaps one day, as i work more and more on my obsidian i'll find the flowers i can bring out into the sunlight

I use this one https://codepen.io/jinsouls/pen/WNYRogj but the fontawesome js doesn't work on non-supporter accounts created after a certain day because idk so I replaced the icons with just text.
ooh thats a nice one!! :D it's actual apps i'm looking for tho, i should've been more clear abt that, but that's a really cute one (i gotta save that somewhere)
i have personally switched back to good old soundcloud after ditching spotify
I won't lie, I use Foobar2000 still. Has a variety of plugins and what not still. Might need to downgrade to x32 bit if you ever decide you want to get an ipod working with it though.
I use musicolet for my own music on android. not sure if you're trying to get away from streaming at all, but if not then I switched from Spotify to tidal and have no complaints. as for sharing oc playlists, I know, rip 8tracks 😔
i really like foobar2000 if youre using windows
thank you all for the feedback :D i was eyeballing foobar2000 and its nice to see there's other people using it (i've been wanting to download my spotify playlists so theyre local; im not the one paying for it but fuck spotify). i do miss 8tracks ... i had playlists on there 😔
winamp and winamp-museum for the skins ! there is also an app for it
i have qobuz while i try to build up a physical library. I switched my songs using soundizz or something like that. There are some songs that were not available tho
