Green (Light). The dark theme came a long way thanks to the efforts of @roboticanary, but it still has some problems. Like the icons in the editor.
thank you
although i will admit, it went a long way back because i made a few cock ups when i took over the site. A lot of the fixes were recovering things that @Momo had done but I had messed up.

but pretty much everytime I learn something I talk to myself afterwads and pretend I'm explaining it to someone else.
this is useful.
if you are stuck on a problem of some sort one trick i remember being taught was to explain the probem to a rubber duck. i think the idea was started to help wiith programming but if what you are studying requires following some logical sequence of steps, e.g. mathematics, this can help here as well.

testing this with a comment. If this doesn't turn up in topics then i think this has worked

This should now be done.

I suggest to not have topics from miscellaneous show up in the recent topics (if it's not too much work to change it). Because game threads which are very easy to comment on shows up a lot on the list of recently commented posts, and they kinda crowd out the other threads.
That seems a good idea, I'll take a look at that.

Next person gets a talking black widow spider who won't stop telling offensive jokes and making sexual innuendos.
Honestly I want that. We'd get along great.

I think i can do next Sunday or the sat/sun after.
Everything in the future is a bit of a whirling ball of chaos atm.
Topic sounds interesting and to be honest I can't think of anything to say about anything now

I think in the case of my parents it was more a fairly reasonable attitude that a lot of young lads are genuinely nervous about talking about romance and that sort of thing, especially in early teens. so they took a kind of relaxed, almost joking, 'ooh, you like her do you' sort of attitude to in a way normalise that.
annoying for reasons at the time i didnt know, but looking back i see what they were getting at. it was an attempt to make me see that those romantic feelings (which i was supposed to be feeling gods damnit) were something that could be joked about. not sure its a very good way of doing that but i think i understand a bit more of what the thought process was.
and from what i gather it is very funny for a parent to make a normally boisterous teenage son go all shy and blushing. there does seem to be an attitude where i'm from that it is allmost a right of passage into young adulthood for your parents to try to embarrass you in amusing ways.

something interesting from AUREA here. someone talking about being aromantic and writing about being aromantic. Given the amount of threads here about aros in media i thought it might be interesting to people.

Quotes?
in Off Topic
Posted
One from me on a recent trip which I'm quite proud of:
we pass an SUV upside-down in a verge
'its an off road car, its off the road, whats that guy looking so grumpy for'
in a similar vein, although i cant remember who this quote is from:
'the titanic was built to be in the ocean, its in the ocean, what more could you possibly want'
