I started working with achromatic palettes and trying some crunchy, textured horror style that took some inspiration from Junji Ito but in the sense of "the vibe I wanted when I decided to try it" instead of being directly inspired.

I'm also dramatic as fuck and loved the vibe of this whole episode.

Bro, I have nothing against braces, I'm not a bigot! I just have some concerns. I just want the damn doctors to leave the kids alone. It's not right to mess with children's bodies! They don't really want to have their crocked teeth fixed, they are probably just autistic or depressed! They should live with their fucked up crooked teeth untill they are 21 and then they can decide if they reaaaally want to get braces. But they still should go to a therapist first to see if they actually have crooked teeth dysphoria or if they are just depressed. Also I don't think people should be allowed to wear braces in public were kids can see them. But I'm not bracephobic, I just have some concerns.

I finally set up my Laika shrine 🥺

I've been collecting Laika memorabilia for years and I always wanted to make a nice little shrine to display all of it, and now I finally did! I got the poster a while ago and the Laika pin I preordered came a month or so ago (my memory is so bad lmao) but I had to make a shelf and stain it and then find brackets so I didn't set it up until now.

Here's all the stuff I've collected so far:

The poster, designed by @dappermouth.
An antique candy tin that had vanilla tahini halva in it, from the 1960s
An antique pin, unsure of year
A pin designed by @pangur-and-grim. I only wanted to have antique stuff in my shrine (except for the poster) but when I saw Greer open preorders for that pin I knew I would regret it if I didn't get one lmao.
Antique Mongolian stamps, unsure of year (the date on them is the day Laika went into space)
Antique post card, from the 1950s or 60s?
Antique matchbox cover, from the 1950s?

Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1

The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.

So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.

So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.

Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.

And the probe is working again.

From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.
