I just tried to understand how the 555 timer IC works and now my head hurts.

@maple Imagine my disappointment when I found out it doesn't even taste like pumpkins 
Look, I DIG that old-school (nowadays) reward loop, okay?
GIVE ME ITEMS TILL I CAN'T CARRY ANYMORE!
And then give me more and make me go back to town to sell it all!
Or give it to my pet, like in Torchlight II!
But: Don't make me click, my wrist doesn't like that 😦
Me: *listens to a podcast about Diablo*
Me: "Oh, Diablo was great! I should pl-
My wrist: "OH NO YOU DON'T!"
Me: "Fair. How about with a controller?"
My wrist: "Yeah, we can give that a try."
Steam: "Yo! You own Victor Vran, it's like Diablo but with controller support!"
Me: "Awesome! Install that shit!"
Steam: *installs*
Victor Vran: *looks good, controls good*
Me: "Alright!"
Victor Vran: *drops 5 items in the first hour, none of them magic*
Me: "Booooring."
@hache Hey, at least you didn't lose any files!? 😅

birdsite link - Linguistics Survey
Someone is writing a dissertation to try and map African-American English linguistically, and asks that, if you identify as black and grew up in the United States, you take five minutes to fill out a short survey:

@kalium I wonder how many font designers are able to have that be their only job and not live in poverty... I imagine there must be at least a dozen?
But I'd be surprised if there'd be more than a hundred...

Anybody want to (voice?)chat on Discord for a bit?
DM me your Discord user ID and I'll friend you!
Or the other way around, if you want!
very general violence mention
If someone makes a bad pun, don't jokingly threaten them with violence!
Those are not the same kind of joke AT ALL!
If someone jokingly questions your competence, don't jokingly threaten them with violence!
Those are not the same kind of joke AT ALL!
UNLESS you have already an established relationship with that person where you BOTH jokingly threaten violence, DO NOT DO THAT!
very general violence mention
UUUUGH. Don't joke about violence when you haven't established that kind of relationship with the other person.
Like... don't do that!
If your friends know you like to joke about doing violence to them, but are really a kind person... okay.
But don't do that to strangers!
DO NOT MAKE JOKES ABOUT VIOLENCE!

Alright, friends, I'm doing #research for that potion-making mobile game I mentioned the other day:
What are some common (or uncommon) substances/materials used to create #potions either in games/media or IRL?
These can be specific or general, and you get bonus points for providing what combinations stereotypically (or actually) create what type of effect.
Please #share this around, because I can use as many #ideas as I can get!
Well, that didn't work!
I'll try again some other time!
That means I will be streaming The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword at that URL.
In case that wasn't clear
