Opinions and Fic

libsnorble-2-dev, a C library that the author only distributes as source code and therefore must be compiled from source using CMake

Squeeb.js, which sort of has most of the features you want, but requires about a gigabyte of Node dependencies and has only been in development for eight months and has 4.7k open issues on Github

Squeeh.js, a typosquatting trojan that uses your GPU to mine crypto if you install it by mistake

Sprongloxide, a Rust crate beloved by its fanatical userbase, which has been in version 0.9.* for about four years, and is actually just a thin wrapper for libsnorble-2-dev

GNU Scrimble, a GPLv3-licensed command-line tool maintained by the Free Software Foundation, which has over a hundred different flags, and also comes with an integrated Lisp interpreter for scripting, and also a TUI-based Pong implementation as an "easter egg", and also supports CSV, XML, JSON, PDF, XLSX, and even HTML files, but does not actually come with support for squeebing snorble files for ideological reasons. it does have a boomeresque drawing of a grinning meerkat as its logo, though

Microsoft Scrimble Framework Core, a .NET library that has all the features you need and more, but costs $399 anually and comes with a proprietary licensing agreement that grants Microsoft the right to tattoo advertisements on the inside of your eyelids

snorblite, a full-featured Perl module which is entirely developed and maintained by a single guy who is completely insane and constantly makes blog posts about how much he hates the ATF and the "woke mind-virus", but everyone uses it because it has all the features you need and is distributed under the MIT license

st. paul’s cathedral in liége went from one lucifer, whom they called ‘too sublime’ and removed because he was distracting ‘pretty penitent girls,’ to another lucifer, who they’ve left there for 170 years even though he’s so hot that satanists visit the cathedral to meditate in the presence of this Most Sexy Of Lucifers

here’s how i imagine that went down.

liege cathedral: hmm. you know what we need? a nice satan for our church. let’s ask joey geefs

joseph geefs: sculpts this

liege cathedral: no!! too hot!! now we all want to fuck lucifer! we need a different satan. let’s ask… the sexy lucifer sculptor’s BROTHER. yes. willy geefs is older so he definitely doesn’t want to fuck lucifer

guillaume geefs, who DOES want to fuck lucifer, and the only sign of his being older than his brother is that the lucifer he wants to fuck is somewhat older: sculpts this

liege cathedral: shit. well we don’t have any more money for lucifers so i guess we’ll keep this sexy lucifer

DBH fandom: hmmmm… yes. childhood abuse. inferiority complex. loneliness. mental health issues. what an excellent opportunity for a redemption arc

David Cage: do I have to make him eat kittens

DBH fandom: oh right, he has a cat. or two cats. of course he has two cats that he loves. a perfect ship for our beloved protagonist. thank you

David Cage: okay how about the Good Cop. he’s at the perfect age to be a surrogate father and it just so happens that he recently lost a son. he only hates androids because he’s depressed and in grief, and besides he doesn’t really hate them anyway. he’s an alcoholic because grief, but he’s very good at his job, and he loves his dog and he’s also endearing and funny, and big, and gives great hugs. what a good adoptive dad he would make, am I right?

DBH fandom: awww big sad bear. good thing our protagonist is an energetic twink with little concept of personal boundaries!

David Cage: I SAID surrogate father

The Zero Comment Challenge is a way for readers to find new stories and reach out to authors they want to encourage. 

Every fandom has stories that get lost in the shuffle. Maybe they were posted during a busy time and didn’t get much attention. Maybe the author didn’t tag as effectively as they could have to get their story in front of the audience it was intended for. Maybe the fandom is just really shy so they leave kudos instead of comments. 

Allow yourself to fail. That’s the best gift you can give yourself. If you give yourself permission to fail you gain so much!

freedom from the fear of failure

understanding that failure is a natural part of life and not something to be avoided

the opportunity to learn from your mistakes

the chance to teach others what you’ve learned so that maybe they can do better too

empathy for others who have failed in a similar way

And above all, if you allow yourself to fail you’ll see that everything’s still okay and you’re still a valuable human being - even if you made a mistake or didn’t do everything perfectly.
