Image Hosting – RESOLVED
We attempted an upgrade (a one-click, no mess upgrade which bombed) to get around a defect, but it bombed last night and no amount of pleading and prodding would get it to work. So this morning we’re live on the older version of our image hosting software and things are back up. If you see […]

Short Outage
About an hour ago we went down for about 20 minutes, but things should be up and running smoothly now. We had a power issue (electrician is testing some things) so we had to flip the breaker. And while most items are protected via battery backup, one of our systems blurped and didn’t automatically come […]
Read MoreSquidge.org INC Financials for 2024
Attached is a list of financials for Squidge.org, INC for 2024. While we raised enough money to cover our expenses, because of legal requirements and filings, we actually didn’t quite cover all of our bills – so it’s a good thing we had a cushion in the bank to cover these expenses. As a breakdown: […]
Read MoreSeeking A Graphic Artist
We’ve come up with a theme for our annual Summer fundraiser, but in order to bring our thoughts to fruition, we need someone who has some illustration experience.

Read MoreFenRecs.com Update
The rollout of FenRecs.com has gone so smoothly that I’ve decided to leave registrations open. That could change at any time, should we be inundated with bad actors, but for now I think we’re good. Fandom is doing good and so far things are awesome. The only issue that we’ve seen so far is with […]

Read MoreGauging Interest
So there’s been talk about fandom being too decentralized as of late, and I’ve had an idea that’s been rambling around my head for a while now. While it sounds good to me, I want to gauge interest before undertaking our Next Big Thing. Most people are at least a bit knowledgeable about Reddit – […]
Read MoreBrief Overnight (US) Outage
So one final holiday “gift” that we got was an overnight power outage (and in this case, gift is the German translation which means poison – thank you Grimm for teaching me that!). Power was out from about 2am until just before 6am, and there were a couple of burps that had to be resolved […]
Read MoreIt’s Giving Tuesday!
Like just about every other non-profit out there – and quite a few for-profit corporations that are trying to hijack Giving Tuesday into a capitlistic way of selling more junk – we’re here to tell you that it’s Giving Tuesday. Today is supposed to be about supporting non-profits that make a difference in your life. […]
