media

I really like the look of a collection of screenshots, but they're contraindicated for accessibility reasons. These are some of my workarounds: divs styled to look like different media, whether that be different sites, print media, or something else.

Quo usque tandem abutere, Catilina, patientia nostra? quam diu etiam furor iste tuus nos eludet? quem ad finem sese effrenata iactabit audacia? Nihilne te nocturnum praesidium Palati, nihil urbis vigiliae, nihil timor populi, nihil concursus bonorum omnium, nihil hic munitissimus habendi senatus locus, nihil horum ora voltusque moverunt? Patere tua consilia non sentis, constrictam iam horum omnium scientia teneri coniurationem tuam non vides? Quid proxima, quid superiore nocte egeris, ubi fueris, quos convocaveris, quid consilii ceperis, quem nostrum ignorare arbitraris?

CRT

This is meant to look like an old-school computer monitor. The overlay that makes this possible is based on a tutorial by Oudkee, modified so as to work in a constrained area rather than over the whole screen.

A thoroughly redundant Kindle style which exists partially for variety and mostly because it pleases me to make it.

[Verse]
Comin' out of my cage, and I've been doin' just fine
Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all

It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
Now they're goin' to bed and my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head, but she's touching his

Comin' out of my cage, and I've been doin' just fine

Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all

It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?

It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab

While he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag

Now they're goin' to bed and my stomach is sick

And it's all in my head, but she's touching his

Prologue
Before the palace of Agamemnon in Argos. Enter the OLD MAN and ORESTES with PYLADES.
Old Man
You are his son! Your father
marshaled the armies at Troy once-
child of Agamemnon: look around you now.
Here is the land you were longing to see all that time.
