- viamarthawells, Announcing the Title of Martha Wells' Murderbot Diaries Novel
- I'm between games right now, and starting to play around with Stardew Valley. This is a good intro: Stardew Valley!
- viafred_mouse, (and because I keep thinking this will be useful to me but somehow not trying yet), How I use Habitica
- Two links on alt-text: viarunpunkrun, Alt-text tips you probably don't know. And via goss, Why an HTML image alt text doesn't show on hover.
Lastly, fic rec: An excellent and well-written Root/Shaw fic that has just finished up, where Root is a cross-roads demon. It has loyalty kink in spades, it's clever and plays with mythology really well, and it has a very satisfying and oddly happy ending considering the set-up.

Summary:
“Some saw the sudden illness and death as some form of possession – the devil inside Samantha finally overpowering her and her whole family – and a small party laid her to rest at the crossroads outside of town with a stake through her heart. Many believe that she still resides at that crossroads as a demon who waits for the bold or the desperate to call upon her.”
Shaw summons a crossroads demon. It goes as well as you would expect.
