meme: state of the characters

[ultron_junior]

We haven't done this since August, and I figured on a Friday and with half a semester behind us, it might be a good time for a check-in with our characters.

So, stolen from seaweed_demigod...

Everyone loves gabbing about their characters, don't even lie, so this is your chance. Talk as much or as little as you'd like! Talk about whatever you'd like! Upcoming plots, relationships (both romantic and friendship), enemies, plans for the future, anything!

For example:

Character name: Dolores Umbridge
Character's current mood: PISSED OFF
Character's current goings on: Sometimes, it's hard for me to play her because she's so intensive and tiring. But, she's having fun hexing students and pissing off teachers. I'm enjoying her games of give and take with Anakin and Wade, particularly. I'd love to see her thread more with Roy. She'll be leaving soon but not before a big explosive ending.
Needs threads with: Everyone because she wants to kiiiiiiiiill you all

And we have a handy dandy text box so you can just C&P it right in the box and fill in your answers. Get to it!


<b>Character name:</b> <b>Character's current mood:</b> <b>Character's current goings on:</b> <b>Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon):</b> <b>Needs threads with:</b>

LJ Release 97

[nookiepowered]

This one actually hit very late Monday night, as I'm sure everybody discovered on their own, but things have been a wee bit busy in the House of 1000 Cats this week, so this is the first chance I've had to write it up.

There's no news post this time, just the LJ Releases post.

Aside from some changes to how Scrapbook galleries are ordered (most recently uploaded appear first), the only major change is the big, honking obvious one:

LJ-Cuts, when left-clicked, now open right on your Friends page, instead of taking you to the entry page. Once they're opened, a "collapse" link appears at the spot where the cut text was, so you can close it again if so desired.

To ignore this change entirely and never see an expanded cut-tag on your friendslist, you can

1. Right-click the cut-tag and open page in another tab or window. (For a tablet, long-pressing on the link will bring up the right-click menu in Firefox/Opera/etc. The default Android phone browser, notsomuch, but Option 2 still works.)
   



2. Left-click on the subject line, the comments link, or the permanent "Link" to open the full entry in the same tab/window.

TL;DR: It's a tad unsettling, but it can be avoided.

Thass all I gots! As always, feel free to share if you've got other workarounds, problems you've noticed with the change that aren't mentioned here, ponies, cake, or pie.
