do not (re)post a video of someone being murdered onto the HMJ feed that could potentially escape all of bluesky's controls to prevent people from seeing it without their choosing. it should go without saying, but just in case as a reminder before you might click (re)post on the one going around.

this should be balances softness with depth* and warmth* but I rewrote this to be autumn instead of summer and it slipped past me in the edit 🙃
So you may get a result of True Autumn and think that your palette seems very soft. That is correct! It balances softness with lightness and coolness. But that means that your dominant characteristic is *not* softness. The Soft Autumn palette will feature colors with even more grey in them.

Soft autumn, soft summer: everyone who’s gotten into color analysis has thought they were one of these palettes at some point. Then you get a color analysis & are shocked to receive a result with more saturated colors or a palette with colors that seem “soft” but the result isn't. Let’s look at why.

worth noting about alt text! others have told me that they have to set it separately between browser and app!
also something I noticed is if you ever delete the bsky app, it will reset the mandatory alt text setting so make sure you switch it on again if you had it on before you deleted the app!

Out of respect to the person who just deleted their account over me reminding them about alt text, I won't post the screenshot of the notification that shows what was said. To the HMJ chat: if I reply to your post reminding you about alt text, please understand it's not personal or with malice.

Not 2016, but one time several years ago I was stopped on the street on the way to the gym by people doing what turned out to be a lil segment on a Spanish show asking people if they knew what certain words meant. I featured for a few secs & friends saw me on the TV a few weeks later

@ hmj community streamers new and old, I say this with so much love, but if you have a dozen people in chat and three dozen followers why is the chat in followers-only mode? let's assess risk honestly and acknowledge that streaming is a public activity. a thread:

Now that the whole freak twitch suspension in the last hours of 2025 thing is over, I can say that never has the separation between the state of the world and my personal life been greater. It was a really good year for me profesionally, socially, creatively, and more! I would like to continue that!
