Y’all, I’m Over Here DYING Cuz Google Suggested Me This Article About The Crisis Of Backyard Chicken

So the other night during D&D, I had the sudden thoughts that:

1) Binary files are 1s and 0s

2) Knitting has knit stitches and purl stitches

You could represent binary data in knitting, as a pattern of knits and purls…

You can knit Doom.

However, after crunching some more numbers:

The compressed Doom installer binary is 2.93 MB. Assuming you are using sock weight yarn, with 7 stitches per inch, results in knitted doom being…

3322 square feet

Factoring it out…302 people, each knitting a relatively reasonable 11 square feet, could knit Doom.

When the book is out I want it for my class.

incoming wall of text but HEY LOOK IT’S THAT KICKSTARTER I MEAN TO RUN IN FEBRUARY BUT THIS ENTIRE YEAR HAS BEEN A RIDE HAHAHA *cough*

HERE’S THE LINK TO THE KICKSTARTER PAGE 

-but! in case you don’t want to be bothered going there for the pitch here’s the gist: I made a fairytale story, and lots of people wanted it to be a book, so we’re gonna try to make it into a book! There’s also lots of really nice rewards like seriously they’re really shiny and I love them?? You can read the entire story here for free to see if you like it! As a taster it contains but is not limited to-

Pretty Pastel Pink City

Princess Who can Kick your Ass and Will

Adorable Silent Movie Comedian-type Jester Nerd

MUTUAL. PINING. and rhymes. lots of rhymes. also a baby dragon.

If that’s not enough for you THERE IS ALSO LIKE A WHOLE PLOT WHERE SNEAKY SNOBBY HIGH-UPS IN THE CASTLE TRY TO LIKE, MURDER THE JESTER AND IT GETS KIND OF INTENSE NGL like make up your own mind about it by going to read it. Go on. Read my dorky love story it’s completely free and will take like 10 minutes tops and like maybe you’ll??? Enjoy it? It’s effectively an AU of the two characters from this animation I made a while back, which oh hey look you can watch that for free too at the bottom of this post.

I have also made a lot of Fan Comics on here which you might recognise, and I make The Property of Hate! The only stretch goal is to REPRINT VOLUME ONE AND TWO of TPoH which is currently completely sold out, so if you like any of the stuff I’ve done I’d be HUGELY grateful if you could support this project and/or share it with people! Thank you! :D

“X bodily fluid is just filtered blood!” buddy I hate to break it to you but ALL of the fluids in your body are filtered blood. Your circulatory system is how water gets around your body. It all comes out of the blood (or lymph, which is just filtered blood).
