So I Asked Nonbinary Reddit This A While Back:

It’s thundering here today, and it’s the perfect atmosphere to curl up with a blanket and a hot cup of tea, and listen to the hallowoods.

If there were a place where thunderstorms were guaranteed thrice-weekly, I think it'd fill up with writers in a heartbeat

He’s ✨insane✨ for this and I love the way he asks the woman at the bar for a beer 🥺

it really is crazy how quickly people were willing to just let chatgpt do everything for them. i have never even tried it. brother i don't even know if it's just a website you go to or what. i do not know where chatgpt actually lives, because i can decide my own grocery list.

getting really into journaling is so fucked because you will fr end up with pages like "dear diary, it's fucken wimdy today!!!!! also I might be a talentless hack with no real creative drive or discipline to speak of. xoxo ✨"

what’s it called when you’re so disconnected from reality that cold water doesn’t feel like anything and you can barely taste food anymore

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.

keep forgetting that when most people say "podcast" they don't mean fictional audio dramas but like, some generic dudes talking about politics or true crime lol why would you do that to yourself

ppl who werent changed forever by youre gonna go far kid by the offspring when they were like 11 and insanely impressionable you just cant understand me

runes to keep the worms away, words to keep the mold at bay.

i decided to crochet a little diggory!!! they're made from yarn instead of skin, and pillow fillings instead of cotton, but that's close enough. it took me a few tries to make a jacket that fits them just right, but i think i did okay. hope you all like them!
