Stuff and Things

my favorite part was when he ate the dungeon

no multi option, agonize and choose, no results option, pick one to find out or scroll onward

the number of y'all in the notes mentioning how good the choices are/how hard it is to choose got me preening like "i am going to get a good grade in neurodivergent/disabled, a thing that is both normal to want and possible to achieve 😌"

i have neither a good imagination nor aphantasia, but a secret third thing

I’m so mad because this worked

Reblogging myself because… what was that? Five minutes?

O_O

………my friend has made me curious

help me roger

Update: after I reblogged this someone messaged me offering me tickets to the sold out Hausu screening with a Q&A and autograph session with the director

These never work for me, but here’s to trying.

Eh Roger is cute I might as well

That fish is so happy it makes me happy.

I have no luck right now. Halp.

Why does this have so many notes

because its not one of your posts.

Roger is precious to me.

Help me Roger

I mean…. my page is dead anyways. No one comments or asks questions via the ask thing so I guess I could.

You wouldn’t last an hour in the asylum where they raised me

I can vouch for this cause Shea's moisture used to be the go to brand for people going natural cause is accessible. But now it's SHIT.

This Is why I now only use small black owned brands and am diligent about not using these large store brands

Can we start posting and sharing these small black-owned brands so that we can better support the good stuff we still make? @afronerdism

I stick with Melanin hair care for my entire product line. I only diverge when I’m using as I am which is still small but Indian owner and then I use one anti dandruff shampoo. But it’s melanin hair care for everyone else

OYIN is still Black-owned and made by hand in Baltimore. https://oyinhandmade.com/ and YES non-Black people should buy the products too if they work for you. It's all green and helps the business stay with Black owners.

Decoding PR Talk (IGN64.com The Magazine #1, 1998)

As it is Passover again, it is time for the annual debate as to whether the frog plague, which thanks to a quirk in the Hebrew, is written as a plague of frog, singular, rather than the plural, plague of frogs, was in fact, as generally imagined, a plague of many frogs, or instead a singular giant Kaiju frog. This is an ancient and venerable argument that actually goes back to the Talmud because this is what the Jewish people are. If we can't argue for fun about this sort of thing, what are we even doing.

In that spirit, I would like to submit a third possibility, which is that in fact it was one perfectly normal sized frog, who was absolutely acing Untitled Frog Game: Ancient Egypt Edition. One particularly obnoxious frog, who through sheer hard work, managed to plague all of Egypt.

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.

an article on the subject for the curious:

if you don‘t personally own one but your roommates/parents do and you are allowed to use it, that counts as yes

Secret tenth option: I have an ironing board and I use it, just not usually to remove wrinkles from clothes I didn't hang up fast enough.

yup, secret tenth option, or possibly eleventh but I bet tenth: the iron and ironing board are for pressing fabric for sewing projects, and approximately nothing else

Yeah, in retrospect, I probably could've just said, "I only use it for crafting purposes," but the words weren't quite braining right at the time.

Yep.
