rotating banner/slogan

I don't remember where the conversation went but on IRC last month we talked about having the slogan/banner at the top rotate through <things we're sick about>.

It could pluck from the topic list and say like "sick about <topic title>", just displaying a random one. It'd be cool to give topics more exposure that way and is kinda cozy in general.

Thoughts?

I like that idea! Part of the larger theming paradigm

It'd be really fun to be like "sick about <topic> since 2024" or even have a random date, b/c who cares lol

I mean it *could*, of course. But that'd take *code*

we're going to need to code the fetching of the topic title anyway, so the date will be close at hand
