Link works for me, but here's the original article. Movie is called The Day the Crown Cried.
Despite the first book winning the 2021 SPSFC (admittedly, a much less well-known competition than the SPFBO), I almost never see the Primaterre series by S.A. Tholin mentioned. They are doorstoppers, but very well paced, imo: I inhaled the first two books. If you like space opera that manages to avoid a lot of plot tropes, give the series a try!
(Sidenote: if you're put off by the "cosmic horror" label on the first book, I recall there being a couple of mildly gory scenes, but it's mostly in the realm of "unfathomably alien" rather than trying to scare.)
Actually found this harder than expected--most of the songs I associate with summer are the wrong genre, or became super mainstream. But I played this album extensively one summer, and this song in particular has that warm, stuffy evening vibe for me.

Definitely sounds like Mirrormask to me.
This looks great!
[...] There are also instances with varying levels of moderation, which may be encompassed in this.
I know you didn't really touch on what the moderation aspect might involve (and maybe you have provisions for this in a section I skimmed), but ideally I would want defederation lists to be included somehow, at least as an advanced option. Does the user want/not want an instance federated with [other instance]? And then, before final instance selection, present the full list just for verification.
In addition to what neooffs said, it looks like a fully upgraded Buzz Kill (120% slash) increases flat damage (ignoring procs) on Gram Prime as much as a fully upgraded (non primed) Fever Strike (90% toxin) for the same cost. So if you only have one flex slot, going toxin instead is 1) an extra status type for Condition Overload and 2) upgradable to a Primed Fever Strike (165% toxin) for more damage if you've got the mod and capacity. If you have more than one flex slot, I guess it depends on the goals of your build and the statuses you already have access to on your loadout, but other mods might still be more beneficial.
From my (maybe questionable) understanding, slash mods have some value when:
- you're low on capacity and the base slash weighting is high enough, a Jagged Edge (90% slash) or Carnis Mandible (90/60) (or non-melee equivalents) adds more flat damage than a 60/60 or equivalent capacity 90% elemental mod. Again, I suspect YMMV depending on statuses in your loadout, but I might be wrong.
- you're trying to mess with the IPS weighting for more chance of slash damage over puncture/impact, for Desecrate dismemberment.
- you're trying to mess with general proc weighting for a better chance of slash procs over other procs (this is the area I'm fuzziest on, maybe someone else can explain if/when you'd want to do this).
Not OP, but domain blocking doesn't seem to be working at the moment (at least for me). I ended up searching "nsfw" in magazines and blocking from there individually. That method seems to work, but it's also kind of a never-ending process, as other NSFW magazines start showing up as people sub to them. I'm sure it'll get sorted eventually.
I couldn't figure out how to describe the vibe I was getting, but you put it into words very neatly.
