kittykittyhunter asked:

Hello! A quick question: it used to be possible to skip through our Likes by adding something like / page / 10 after the Likes' URL. Is there a new shortcut for jumping through our Likes? I found the old system really useful for setting up queues and organising my blog; unfortunately, the grids on the Likes page take a long time to go through and therefore aren't quite as effective. Thank you!

wip answered:

Answer: Hey, @kittykittyhunter!
Good(ish) news here. If you disable Endless Scrolling in your dashboard preferences, you will see that the URL to your Likes list updates every time you go to the next page.
The “before” value there is a number, specifically a Unix timestamp. For example, 1688242570 is July 1st, 2023, at 20:16:10 GMT.
You can use a tool like this to pick a date and time you want to go back to in your likes. This is the closest thing we have available right now to what you’re asking for, but we hope this helps.
Thanks for your question, and have a great day!
Love,
—Cyle

AFAIK, no, but you can append

"?max_post_id=SOME_POST_ID"

and you will get all the posts on your dashboard older than said post. It breaks with endless scrolling after one "page", but works marvelously with a paginated dashboard. Not as easy to use, but useful regardless.

cyle

and it can be any post ID… so if you find a random post ID from 2016, you can use that to start your dashboard from that time and go backwards from there. like a little time machine.

pamphlet front: gul dukat portrait. text reads: cult of the pah wraiths. the true gods of bajor have judged you and found you worthy. they are determined to reclaim their rightful place in the celestial temple. join us.

inside pamphlet: another portrait of gul dukat. text reads: our benevolent emissary gul dukat. Have you ever wondered why the prophets stood by and did absolutely nothing when Cardassia took over Bajor? Gul Dukat, much like the pah wraiths, has long been deeply misunderstood. Dukat has cared for the Bajorans as he does his own children. Dukat protected us and prevented the occupation from being much, much worse. All this.... and yet not one statue on Bajor! pamphlet continues with a picture of empok nor. text: WHILE AWAY THE DAY AT EMPOK NOR Oxygen Functional Airlocks Family-Size Jacuzzi Marriage Counseling 3 of 6 Pylons Operational 50 Flavors of 44 Yamok Sauce

pamphlet inside. a picture of a bed with candles around. text: EXPERIENCE THE HOLY TOUCH OF THE PAH WRAITH For (female) members, our emissary conducts regular private pah readings and prayer sessions in his quarters. Our emissary generously shares the purifying benefits of his sizeable, long lasting faith. Costa vol pah mah jahn, children.

back of pamphlet. text: DISCOVER THE TRUTH The prophets are not the true gods of Bajor. The pah wraiths were cast out of the celestial temple because they wanted to take a more active role in Bajoran life. Their only crime is that they cared about the Baioran people. They were not allowed to help them because they lost the battle for heaven and were forced to flee. IT'S TIME TO RECLAIM WHAT IS OURS Too long have the true gods toiled away in the fire caves. It's time to reclaim their rightful place in heaven. Join us- and purify yourself in preparation for the day they reclaim the celestial temple.

going to check out their next meeting. i mean... they've judged me worthy what could go wrong?

and not even one statue of him on Bajor!!!

A cartoon. Ten men in suits sit around a large table at a board meeting. The man at the head of the table is saying: The bad news is the company's position that "Climate change isn't real" is becoming increasingly untenable... The good news is that if we hold on for a bit longer, we can effortlessly switch to "Oops! it's real, but now it's too late to do anything about it."

Right now, my code work, so I'm the greatest man alive this earth has ever seen, but maybe I'll get a bug soon and I'll immediatly become the dumbest person to ever walk the planet.

Programming is exhausting.
