Now we know why Eliza “misinterpreted” the Clexa sexa scene…

It’s giveaway time!

As you may already be aware, Team Niylah’s Nik Naks will be raffling three copies of the extremely limited edition ‘don’t wanna be your girl’ book at Clexacon 2018. We know that some of you are unable to attend the convention but would still like to be in with a chance of winning this odyssey of Clexa filth in paperback form.

So… we are giving away ONE FREE copy to a lucky Tumblerite.

The rules are simple:

Reblog this post. You can like the post too/reblog multiple times if you wish but only one reblog per user will be entered into the draw.

The competition closes at midnight GMT on Wednesday March 28th and a winner will be chosen at random the following day.

The winner will be notified via Tumblr chat so we can arrange shipping of the book.

This prize draw is only open to those over the age of 18. Please do not enter if you don’t meet the age requirements. 

There are only 15 copies of the book in existence and they aren’t for sale, so don’t miss out if you’d like the opportunity to have a smut-filled slice of Clexa fandom memorabilia in your possession!

*Pretends to be shocked*

The dangers and troubles of being a panda zookeeper.

Honestly I recommend everyone learn just a littttle bit of CSS because it really is powerful and just makes bits and pieces of your internet experience more convenient.

Right now I'm cataloguing recipes I've really enjoyed, just trying to get them all in one place. Many of these are instagram recipes and, because I don't trust link rot (aka the possibility that the instagram link goes dead one day), I'm including a screenshot of the recipe along with the link.

But instagram on desktop... looks like this

(Link, for credit. It's a good recipe)

I obviously could just copy-paste the recipe out of there. But a screenshot would be cleaner for how I'm cataloguing these.

And as-is, I'd have to scroll the whole height of that small right-side window about 4 times to fit it all.

But actually... I can just resize that div holding that whole right-side content

Basically I

hit f12 to open the dev tools

clicked the element finder

clicked on an element inside the recipe side

followed it up the tree until I found the element holding the whole recipe side (do this by hovering the div in the dev tools panel way on the right, then hovering upward and up until I find the element which is the highest up that still only contains the recipe-side content)

in the element.style part, set "width: 1000px" and "height: 1500px"

(I notice the width seems to still be less than 1000px, even though it got bigger)

likely suggests there's an element above it with a max-width set

go up the tree higher until I find the element with the max-width and uncheck that style

screenshot ready

Maybe that sounded complicated but it took me probably 20-30 seconds

And this isn't just about screenshotting recipes like.

website with an annoying gif? select gif, delete gif

do you want a clean screenshot of a digital receipt for record-keeping without a large company banner or irrelevant information? delete unnecessary elements, adjust widths, screenshot

SOMETIMES, you can bypass paywalls if they're relying on something like overflow: hidden, or an overlay in the way, or some JS that runs (you can disable JS in the dev tools)

lost the jpg/png file you used for your profile picture and size doesn't totally matter? grab it from the img src while logged in. (you might even be able to find it in a bigger size by changing the url query parameters)

color contrast on an article really bad? find and change background color. find and change font color

want to make a funny fake screenshot without learning photoshop? just edit the page content in the dev tools

This isn't about like being good enough to write scripts or browser extensions. Really if you just have some basic HTML/CSS understanding a hat worth of tricks, you can make so many little adjustments in your favor.

The Massive Bookshop is an anti-profit, abolitionist, online bookstore based in western Massachusetts. By "anti-profit" we mean that we're opposed to the idea of generating a profit. While that may not seem sustainable, living as we do in a capitalist economy, in other ways it's easier to be sustainable with a business model that doesn't depend on extracting surplus value from underpaid employees or living off whatever meager margin we get from selling books. Like you, we have day jobs that pay our bills, and everything about the business is set up to require a minimum of effort on our part to get the books from the publishers to you.

In order to keep costs to a minimum, we don't take out loans, we don't rent a storefront, and we don't keep any money for ourselves. When we have a surplus in our bank account we give it to OUR FRIENDS.

Since we started the bookstore in September 2020, we've generated over $18k in revenue for various mutual aid and community-building projects. In 2022 we made the decision to use all of our resources to support those caged by the criminal punishment system. Now we're bailing people out of jail. Through partnerships with community bail funds like our friends at Decarcerate Western Mass, we hope eventually to abolish the dehumanizing practice of pre-trial detention. Until that day, we use money from book sales to grow the bank balances of bail funds, thereby increasing their capacity to get people out of cages. Because the bail fund gets the money back after those arrested make their court appearances, even a few hundred dollars can be used to get dozens or even hundreds of people out of jail free over the life of the bail fund.

If you want to order a book, please do! We ship via USPS or UPS, and we also use drop-ship services provided by many of the larger book publishers and distributors to ship directly from them to you. If we don't have what you're looking for, submit a request through the MASSIVE BOOK HOOK-UP. We relish any opportunity to find you the book you want to read at a price that you can afford.

We also cover the cost of sending books to those currently incarcerated in a jail or prison. To read more about this service, check out our B2P page, which provides state-by-state guidance for sending books to prisoners in the U.S.

It should be understood that on paper the Massive Bookshop is a business like any other, embedded in the totally unsustainable global networks of capital accumulation. We are not ending capitalism with a bookstore. We are simply selling rad books and, at the same time, bailing some people out of jail. The Massive Bookshop is an ongoing experiment, exploring what's possible within the constraints set for us by capitalism. We are having fun, and we hope you'll have fun with us, too.

Because we hate landlords, we don't rent a storefront. Our Massive Fulfillment Center is a 152 sq. ft. office space leased from the Franklin County Community Development Corporation. If you want to send us snail mail, you can send it there:

MASSIVE BOOKSHOP 324 Wells St Greenfield, MA 01301
