The way I get around feeling bad about this kind of stuff is to love the younger version of me like they're my lost child.

you're not gonna like this but you have a mathematical mind and you'd be good at programming if you wanted to do it. I'm sorry to say this. But unfortunately your ability to break down a complex problem into the most basic version and work backwards from there is a very valuable skill.

Just opened this post again and read it to the tune of "today is gonna be the day they're gonna throw it back to you". It works. (If you say it as two thousand twenty five)

Reply to comment by twovests in I finally got my personal website functional by WRETCHEDSORCERESS
Also I decided to implement this, if you don't want the Thrill of Discovery and would rather just have someone tell you how to do it. (Which is okay + 100% cool to do)

I also want to figure out how to have randomized "splash" text on my index page like Minecraft. That should be pretty simple I figure, but I am no good with javascript so it's eluded me lol
Is your site a static page (just html+css+js files and folders) or did you take the Route Of Pain and use something like php? You can definitely do this with JavaScript

You write with the timing of a good YouTube video. Any unscrupulous Influencer would do well to wade into your posts.
There are six realms and each is united by highly conserved traits, i.e. genome sequences that are shared between them even through evolutionary weirdness and the like.
Like, come on, this is some Gauntlet: Dark Legacy shit. This is some "Super Mario Brothers" stuff. I think this happened in Trauma Center: Second Opinion. Viruses stand for "Video Gamesiruses" I think
This is a lovely post and I hope you are feeling better as of my reading this

Reply to Microbe Monday: There is a Hole in the Antarctic Ice; Tainted Blood Flows From the Desolate & Wounded Earth by WRETCHEDSORCERESS
I am once again coming to these late, and once again, it's full of bangers. It's hard to pick a favorite quote. This is such a fantastic hook:
The Taylor Glacier of the McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctic bleeds. There is just a waterfall of deep red, bloody water that spouts from the side down onto West Lake Bonney. I assume this was an absolutely horrific sight to the 1911 Terra Nova Expedition guys, particularly Thomas Griffith Taylor, who named it. It is regrettable it did not start doing cosmic horror to him, given that he was a shitty race scientist guy.
You may be wondering several things, most notably, why in God's name is the world bleeding? Why is there so much blood? Why is it there, at the frozen ends of the earth? Can God save us? No, silly, of course He can't. This is the domain of Microbes.
Thank you again for this effortpost, it should be under f/best_post because this is one of the best posts.

A friend has a thing in a video game where she was trying to get items from a limited pool of 20 items that couldn't have any repeat and it took her 20 tries to get the item she wanted. People were saying there is a 1 in 20! chance of this happening, while I think there is just a 1 in 20 chance of this happening because while it is true that this exact permeation of events happening is 1 in 20! there are also 19! outcomes that have the same property so the chance of this happening.
My intuition was that if you had a deck of 19 black cards and 1 red card if the only information you care about is where the red card is then there is only 20 possible outcomes so the question we are asking is what is the chance that the red card is on the bottom of the deck and that is 1 in 20.

I have had this interaction several times. I would love to feel your pulsing brane (that is, I would love to see your simulations / know more about the context) (I love probability, and verifying with my good pal Monte Carlo)

Yeah! I think the comedy helps the Star Trek go down a lot easier

I have, I loved it, until the ending started to build up. I dislike supernatural horror, it takes anything to "Scooby Doo" levels of seriousness to me. Throw in something Satanic-Panic adjacent and I just lose all interest.
Congratulations on quitting smoking!! That's impressive and good for you, and by extension, for the cause of Posting.

Reply to "A hoo hee, what do I see? A sale on cottage cheese, this is perfect for me!" Just one of the little things you can say at the grocery store when in earshot of someone by twovests
I want this. I want to get a group of people, say half a dozen or so, to all do this. Same time, but arrive separately and have different shopping lists etc., but lots of nursery rhyme type stuff. Preferably during an off time in a small store with only a few other shoppers.
Refuse to admit knowing each other or to acknowledging anything out of the ordinary. Once you’ve checked out, scamper/skip/interpretive dance your way out of the store and down the street.
I want to be the weird story someone tells their grandkids about 40 years from now. Let’s bring some whimsy to the world.
