british people saying "revise" to mean what americans say "study" for will never fail to throw us off

I kind of feel like... I'm one of those people who'd be very easy to manipulate and take advantage of. I'm very trusting and I don't think I _want_ that to change; I want to be able to trust people

very overwhelmed right now and the apartment people decided now would be a good time to mow the grass right outside our apartment

so uh

apparently it's not just us who have no idea what's going on in regards to research work

apparently no one else does either

the person providing the funding said to talk to someone else, the someone else has no idea what the thing even is and definitely has not signed the requisite paperwork to take over the project, the person who _was_ in charge of the project has left the university and is not responding to emails

what the fuck are we supposed to be doing

*hands you a cup full of melted plastic that used to be a DVD* it's a molten-media experience!

one of the strangest things to me about NT/allistic people and one of the most annoying things when interacting with them is that it seems like they always expect there to be some kind of ulterior motive in a conversation, like I have some reason to ask "what is that thing you just mentioned?" other than wanting to know what that thing they just mentioned was

I don't, I just want to know what the thing they just mentioned was. I'm not trying to say you're wrong or express doubt or anything, I just want to know what the hell you're talking about

this is a 100% serious question by the way

So... how hard do you think it'd be to get some fan composers together to replace the entire soundtracks for morrowind, oblivion, and skyrim

stooooorm

Who are the "patriot prayer people"?

I keep seeing people making posts about Things That Happened Recently and I'm lacking a lot of context and it feels awkward to ask people about things >.<

grf, it seems like every time I interact with someone I don't know well already it results in some kind of misunderstanding making either me, them, or both of us uncomfortable

sometimes I remember that ramsets exist and that's just so... weird

if you aren't aware, a ramset is a nail gun that uses an actual pistol blank to propel the nail into very hard things like concrete; it's literally a nail gun

it's a ridiculous tool

today is "everything is stressful" day, the worst holiday

i mean I already did do that thing about the interesting grammar of the Akʔana language with its weird person system

kind of getting into the idea that it'd be kind of neat to make a conlang and oh no is this going to be my next obsession

I will never get over how wild it is that inverse kinematics is actually computationally easy because it _feels_ like it should be a very difficult problem

there are many things in computing that feel like they should be simple but are actually hard, but few things that feel like they should be hard that are actually easy

eee. mana collection today

apparently contrapoints made another video but everyone talking about it is just saying contra so for a moment I thought there was a new contra game or something
