TOO MANY TEETH

I got diagnosed with ADHD yesterday at age 30+ and motherfucker. I WAS RIGHT. I FRIGGING KNEW SOMETHING WAS UP

adding my own tags here because I also forgot to add a visual to my thoughts and feelings all day yesterday

my doctor's kind of a rad guy and offered to give me 'Dog medicine? no wait, sorry I'm very tired- would you like KID'S medi- no, wait, sorry-'

poor dude was exhausted from a long day and also pulling out a 1.5" construction staple that someone accidentally used to attach their shorts to their thigh immediately before my appointment- but he was TRYING to offer me a smaller dose of my meds, overlapped with my regular dose, so the horrifying crash would be more like flopping into a pit of foam blocks. and it's working!! ;u;

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

please rb for larger sample size!

Question 1/3

Thank you for helping with this data collection. Please rb for as big a sample as possible!

I have asked this myself in the past and never gotten an answer.

It became pretty standard jargon, as I understand, to disambiguate when writing to other humans. First phys!Steve vs the Steve right next to you, just like you were taking to the machine, then getting looser (as jargon does) to reference, say, bearded!Steve vs bald!Steve.

Thank you to all my followers and patrons for celebrating mermay with me. It's been another awesome year. Here is the directory of all the mermaids I have made so far, and other relevant links!

When Life Gives You Corpses is a brilliant YA about a cursed praying mantis who falls for a young witch. Yield Under Great Persuasion is a raunchy, but surprisingly sweet story about two men repairing their relationship. Fabulous Bodies is a horror story about a queer rockstar rising from the dead.

This is Where the Future Bleeds is a fantasy set in a vividly imagined land, where two women (who happen to kiss) are the key to healing the broken sky. You're No Better is a story about a teen struggling in the shadow of his murderous parent. Oil on Canvas is about a woman who finds disturbing paintings in the home of her dead mother.

Anyway I was bitching about how hard it is to come up with feasible planets in Star Wars because sometimes you need a new planet from scratch and sometimes you need to know more about a planet than the 'has jungles, is probably a moon technically' than Wookieepedia will give you, and they're like 'oh yeah I can do something about that'.

So they've written (in Matlab but they swear it will run as a .exe as well and I may be conscripted to embed it as a web tool at some point) a star system generator.

You input what you know about the planet (ecosystem, population, sun colour, does it have liquid water, does it have a moon or moons, is it a moon or moons, temperature averages, atmosphere, you get me) and it will give you the... everything else about the star system, in obedience to real-universe physics. And if you input nothing you get a randomly generated star system.

And I’m like oh I know people who will be into this with a vengeance, and they're not on Tumblr, so this is me seeing who exactly would be keen on, and I cannot stress this enough, a real-physics comprehensive star system generator.
