#what an insane archive

[shortformblog]

I am working on a crazy project.

I plan to combine the archives of ShortFormBlog on WordPress and ShortFormBlog on Tumblr into a single site, using the static site generator Eleventy. I’ve already done a good chunk of the exporting. Between the two sites, there are 36,000 posts. We had numerous contributors over the years, with about half a dozen regulars—but even given that, I’m responsible for most of the posts. I’ll keep the Tumblr archives online so you can follow the notes if you wanna, but I’ve long wanted to merge these archives into one piece, as complicated as it sounds.

The ten-year anniversary of the “official” shutdown of ShortFormBlog hits in October. I will have it ready before then. I hope.

Funniest statement is still the guy who walked into the spiral, was there for six hours, then realized he was late for dinner with his family and simply stepped out of the spiral like nothing was amiss 😭😭😭😭😭

The thing about TMA is that if I think about Sasha James too much I will cry and if I think about Michael Shelley too much I will cry and if I think about Agnes Montegue too much I will cry and if I think about Jonathan Sims too much I will cry and if I think about Naomi Herne too much I will cry and if I think about Gerry Keay too much I will cry and if I think about Tim Stoker too much I will cry and if I think about Jane Prentiss too much I will cry and if I think about Martin Blackwood too much I will cry and—

I think that if Miles Edgeworth were to ever have a Tumblr blog it would be entirely Steel Samurai based with a carefully organized tagging system. He posts lengthy formally worded analysis about Steel Samurai and nothing else. He doesn't check his notes. He does check his asks, because they're kind of like emails. He has anon asks and dms turned off. Someone sends an ask about his interests outside of Steel Samurai and he immediately blocks them. He doesn't have pronouns or a name to be called by in his bio. The only hint about Edgeworth's personal life is that when he refers to the death of Jack Hammer or the conviction of Matt Engarde he only refers to Phoenix as "that man".

Maya definitely has a tumblr and it has a canon Pink Princess url. She actually hoarded a bunch of Pink Princess urls long before the character was officially announced because she knew she needed to have them. Her tumblr header is "the real pink princess ask sal manella". Her pinned post has these

[ID: Two blinkie banners. The first has a lesbian flag background and says "Pink Princess is canonically gay." The second is light pink and says "PinkSteel shippers dni". End ID] (thank you @princess-of-purple-prose)

Maya follows him and sends Edgeworth asks periodically. He thinks she's a wonderful conversationalist. He has no idea of her identity. Maya is fully aware he's Edgeworth.

Stating what they (don't) want pretty firmly.

I think people should listen to a compilation of only Sasha James' lines. Istg 70% of her lines elicited this reaction from me

Oh boy I sure love it when the protagonist of the horror podcast I’m listening to has a cryptic lighter that they dismiss as unimportant and don’t even know why they’re carrying it haha love that I’m sure it only signifies GOOD things haha
