I have heard Syngman Rhee's name pronounced so many times but had no idea it was spelled that way until I watched the Ishmael wetsuit incident video essay pt2. That level of custom anglicization feels like a 🚩

a feeling of dread washed over me...

did any of you ever bring a red pen to school as a child? if so, why? (multi-pens don't count)

@kae.moe I'm curious, do you know of a good place to get into Henry Darger esp. his drawings I downloaded an untranscribed pdf of some portion of Vivian Girls from a public library website my and it made my eyes go crossed

when I first posted this drawing someone DM'd me a 2,000 word psychoanalysis telling me to fuck him probably the only truly strange comment I have received on my art

Eswatini has the most Confucian flag in the world. The kun trigram is the best and they have six of them.

I was watching someone stream Armored Core 2: Another Age the other day and was stunned by how stupid the new lock-on noises were, on top of the beautifully intrusive "pew" noise that the Karasawa makes Games simply do not make noises anymore. They are too afraid

Cool, a foot of snow tomorrow; I would walk into the sea but it will be frozen

The evil twin to the "Place, Japan" meme is Problem, USA: "Thoughts and prayers ! 🙏" Problem, South Africa: "well They got exactly what They wanted" 👍 352 👎 💬

Continuing the LISP-in-prod adventure; I'm still scared of macros (at least in Hy); Getting the feeling that the main reason this dialect still favors composition even with mutables is that it feels evil/weird to define functions with more than 1-3 s-expressions, but natural to make them very deep

I don't eat meat often but if I do it should be as fucked up as possible. e.g. Marbled beef comes from cows so overfed that their flesh melts in the pan, Jamon has been dessicated so long that it's basically a meat crystal, And one of my life goals is to eat an Ortolan bunting. They look so plump

Thinking abt how dope it is that Persona 3's school has a magick teacher. Not like a Hogwarts class, but comparative spirituality and occultism, meditation u.s.w. Most societies, even "diverse" ones are built around organized religions, so highschoolers mainlining Crowley would never actually fly.

You know, I'm not sure the "tech people hate IoT" meme is statistically true, at least going by the amount of smartwatches I see. I've never personally met an SWE who wears an automatic. I have a Seiko that I only set and wind when I'm feeling exasperated.

Makoto Yuki is so dreamy omg

... a guy so transphobic that he can be fully contained by a circle of salt, as he refuses to cross a threshold,

i thought the brackets would murder me but standard printing quickly gets you into the mindset of visualing Lisp programs as sideways trees and inserting linebreaks in the right place Tcl (which is very similar) has no such luxuries and is a fucking nightmare

I've been putting off learning Lisp since forever (it's as "learning 3D" is to illustrators), but no more. At work I've picked up Hy (a Python ecosystem Lisp) to assert dominance over """C oldheads""" by using a programming language contemporary to FORTRAN.

WHERE DID BLUD COP CRIMSON YEEZYS

Many people have principles of artistic integrity. As I return to working alone on the Great Work, I can think of only one: It has to get banned in Malaysia. Everything I can think to make is homosexual propaganda, but it implicitly sets a popularity goal as well as being a bit didactic.

twisted a dial wrong an dmy nice wool sweater is now a crop top i am never doing chores again

today i made the usual peanut noodles w/ vegetables but i used that masochistic Meridian skin-on peanut butter the color and taste were much closer to my memory of Malay "kuah kacang", the skin adds bitterness and smoke. i guess if you're in the UK and want to make satay, that is the brand to buy

I sharpened a worn lockback that a Curry's technician left under my sink. I did not do a very good job; i ordered some guide wedges from Amazon but they were 'returned as undeliverable or something'; but I felt very serene while I was doing it.

There is this guy at work who explains jokes to me. Like if multiple people are talking and somebody drops a real humdinger, he will turn to me and very slowly explain it. I figured he must have an autistic child; today he told me has TWO. I think the faces I make trigger his ASD parent instinct.
