Weekly Update! (2025-06-22) A Little Batty
https://www.foxsaliant.com/
Heyo peeps!
Sorry for the late weekly, I’ve just been kind of out of it today and been mostly hanging out and playing games. Been a tiring week, though not from any particular emergency, or anything, I’m just kind of worn out lately.
Did some adulting and set up a dentist appointment on Thursday, though that’s just going to be an exam and consultation, so not anything particularly crazy or invasive. We’re just going to have a look taken and see what I need to have done to improve things for myself.
I flubbed the paperwork on my state insurance (I read the wrong date so I missed the deadline) so I’m going to call on Tuesday to get some more information and see what I can do about that to maintain my benefits. I also have to set up an appointment with a doctor at some point soon.
Still, because of all this, and everything earlier in the month, things are running behind. Going to have to take some new jobs and Chapter 6 might not get finished by the end of the month as I’d hoped. I have a page ready to go now, actually, but it needs just a little more something before I can post it. That will be soon, I hope. We’re also getting close on the backlog, but it’s not quite where I’d hoped we’d be, so we’ll just have to see how things work out over the next couple of weeks.
Nothing super special, nothing terribly scary, just… things not quite getting where I want them to be, as usual. But we are close.
I’ve also wanted to try something different with the forum because, well, it’s been flooded by spambots trying to register accounts and I’ve been unable to tell real accounts from fake accounts. Every time I look there’s five hundred new bogus registrations with stolen business e-mails. Additionally I cannot access my admin panel because either an update caused something in the code to change, or my hosting service decided to break something. I’m not sure which, but I’ve only found out about it recently and I’m doing my best to fix it. Once I’m able to, I’m going to close registrations and open a form to fill out for those of you who are real people who actually want to use a forum. I’m sorry for the kind of mess that it’s been so far. I’d heard spam was bad, but I didn’t think it’d be this bad on a single link forum with no reach. If I can’t improve things, I might shut it down and try to build community in some other way. We’ll see what happens, though.
Still, everything’s moving along, more or less.
Oh! Randomly, a bat ended up in our house! That was interesting. I don’t know how it got in, but it was mid-morning and it was pretty sleepy, so we used a box and some spare cardboard to move him outside and get him back into the air, and off he went. It wasn’t bad; he was just mostly hanging out up on the wall and just kinda chilling. He didn’t seem disoriented or anything, just sleeping, and no one actually came in contact with him so all and all, everything worked out. It was just a weird little bit of excitement.
Litha has come and the days will soon begin to shorten, but the heat is going to be here for a bit, I imagine. Stay cool, fox friends. Until next time!
