I can’t believe tumblr of all places made verification badges actually useful beyond “this person is more famous than you/payed 8$” …LIKE WHAT DA FUK. This place went from diet pornhub to weird blog place to twitter but good in *counts on fingers…* TIME

neocities guide - why you should build your own html website
do you miss the charm of the 90s/00s web where sites had actual personality instead of the same minimalistic theme? are you feeling drained by social media and the constant corporate monopoly of your data and time? do you want to be excited about the internet again?
try neocities!!
what is neocities?
neocities is a free hosting website that lets you build your own html website from scratch, with total creative control. in their own words:
"we are tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other on boring, generic social networks that don't let us truly express ourselves. it's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless, monetized, data mined, monitored addiction machines and let our creativity flourish again."
why should I make my own website?
web3 has been overtaken by capitalism & conformity. websites that once were meant to be fun online social spaces now exist solely to steal your data and sell you things. it sucks!!
building a personal site is a great way to express yourself and take control of your online experience.
what would I even put on a website?
the best part about making your own site is that you can do literally whatever the hell you want! focus on a specific subject or make it a wild collection of all your interests. share your art! make a shrine for one of your interests! post a picture of every bird you see when you step outside! make a collection of your favorite blinkies! the world is your oyster !!
here are some cool example sites to inspire you:
recently updated neocities sites | it can be fun to just look through these and browse people's content!

~Chill Minecraft Tunes to Write Your Archaeology Thesis To~

Thanks so much for your help in populating Pix’s office! This is one of the more involved shots from the animatic I’ve been working on and I wanted to pack it with as many details as possible. Any suggestions that didn’t make it into this shot will probably end up in the one set in the Museum!
I painted most of this in the airport on my way to meet up in person with the other mods of @mcytblrsexymen — spent a weekend touring museums and hanging out with @/theminecraftbee, @/magicalmanhattanproject, and like a dozen more tumblr friends and mutuals 😆 It was my first time in the USA! I got my purse stolen and lost all my IDs and money and my epipen! (My first mistake was being too gay in the Smashburger, it’s a long story. It’s okay though, I’m getting things replaced now that I’m back in Canada ✨🇨🇦)
But yeah, I had a ton of fun on the trip and on this painting! Peek under the cut for a full list of the all the Pixlriffs-related Easter eggs I crammed in :P
Easter eggs:
- His classic striped jumper
- Singing fish that’s a cod
- Neptune the ghost cat
- Candle from the Vigil
- Mezalean urn
- Skulk sample that’s escaped containment
- Winchester figurine
- Toy Sheriff
- Lizzie’s Ocean Orb
- Four blue books in his stripes’ pattern
- Survival Guides vol. 1 through 3 on the shelf
- Currently hidden behind him is a framed selfie of ZloyXP
- History and Law degrees on the wall
- Diamond pickaxe
- The guitar from his stream background
- My Saint Pearl painting ^_^
- Copper lamp
- Mug of tea
- Celery growing on the desk (reference to his partner)
—
Also one more bonus for you, I made my own sexyman merch to wear on the trip because, as the designer, I have that power ;)
