Suite à la réussite écrasante de la Vignetterie, je tiens à informer mes lecteurs de la mise en place de « البيان رقم صفر » (français : Communiqué Numéro 0 ; anglais : Noughthnet). Il s’agit d’une « fôret », d’après Sterling et al.
1. La réception de la Vignetterie
- ‘I do not desire to read this[.]’
- ‘More Vignetterie tradwife content 😮[.]’
- ‘Hysterically bemus[ing]…insanity[.]’
- ‘Did you just think of this[? D]id you send it to like everyone ever? And do you genuinely read this stuff…[?]’
- ‘It was like entering Pan’s labyrinth.’
- ‘Your old website was more interesting.’
- ‘It’s in French now.’
- ‘I have a design suggestion…’
- ‘[I]t’s like peering into the mind of one of the half-cosmic horror half-people hybrids Lovecraft was writing about. Given written by an Asian man and most of it’s in French too, it’s probably what Lovecraft was talking about.’
- ‘Is there a single image on the Vignetterie?’ (I replied in the negative.) ‘I assume that’s deliberate?’ ‘No, I just haven’t worked out how to make the blasted thing I use to generate it include images.’
