[guy with the Cant Focus Disorder] why the fuck can't I focus
if there’s one thing i’ve gleaned from watching star trek, it’s that everything in modern media is a star trek reference, except star trek, which is mostly shakespeare

saw an ant on the bus today, what a horrible fate. moved an unfathomable distance from everything you've ever known because of forces you could never possibly understand. no matter how long you follow the pheromone trail you laid you'll never find your way home.
He’s ✨insane✨ for this and I love the way he asks the woman at the bar for a beer 🥺

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.
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

i had some spare time left and decided to draw a second picture for the hallowoods art competition!
You stole a kiss on a dying star. You stretched the seconds out in the gravitational collapse, as the shock waves broke from the atomic core. You were completely entwined, and all your eyes looked into all his eyes. And that was the last moment you were really, truly happy.

[Image Description:
A realistc drawing of outer space. It shows the supernova of a brightly shining, collapsing star in red and green colors on opposing sides of the picture. There are many glowing particles on either side of the painting. The green side represents the Hello From The Hallowoods character Marolmar. There are tiny green vines amongst the stars stretching out into space. The opposite, red side of the picture represents Nikignik. Glowing eyes can be seen amongst the particles in that area.
