here's also the blank without the writing on it, just in case uhhh... anyone in the #splatoon2 / #splatoon tags need
the 'you stop that' velma but with a splattershot and Pissed Off
since the last splatfest in #splatoon2 is upon us, in the spirit of goodwill to all, may i remind/gift everyone with this playlist i made https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAOfbOmUUq1QbIdZosy90xVqZGyYdkj2_ that is full of Extreme Power.
if you define extreme power as "what majima goro listens to at the gym", which of course we do,
No one can make fun of fanfiction again. Dante Alighieri is the original Mary Sue. #HotTake
Look at this shit. He writes a poem where everyone he hates is in Hell, he is fucking guided by goddamn VIRGIL, because Dante is TOTES COOL AND A GOOD WRITER. He puts his crush as the perfect women who likes him back in Heaven. HE NEVER GOT WITH BEATRICE IRL.
I never published shit like this to fanfiction dot net because I knew I'd be made fun of! Why when a grown ass man does it is it Literature?

honestly though i have only taken one (1) entire class on the subject, growing up in a family of compsci nerds has taught me the two important qualities of any computer science student tackling a problem:
1. willingness to google what the fuck is up (and especially the Exact Error Message)
2. willingness to kluge together a solution (because if it works, it ain't stupid)
this is the internet equivalent of getting medicine in a childproof cap that's also so adultproof that to open it you had to get out your bandsaw and hack it open. i have literally broken it into working.
COMPUTERS, EVERYBODY!
so i found the more permanent solution to my keyboard woes and it is -
get this, y'all. just admire the level of idiotic choices of jury-rigging i and many others have stooped to.
- to keep windows from reinstalling the internal keyboard drivers after you uninstall them so you can use an external keyboard with your laptop, you instead tell it to turn off all the safeties and choose a driver for the internal keyboard that absolutely does not work, fooling it into obsolescence
i actually feel a bit bad because the group wasn't full of bad *people*
but it was obvious that with the average level of skill it was just not gonna happen.
so we parted fond farewells after giving it one last try, wishing each other better luck in future with 20 mins left on the clock
re: drug mention by way of a wigglytuff kvetching about historical inaccuracies in a tv show
@wigglytuffitout civil war? so wait, the US?
yeah she should be taking laudanum
i can let a lot of the other historical inaccuracies slide because i sympathize with not wanting to constantly emulate the sexism and racism of the immediate US civil war (even if i feel a little like it's robbing the heroes of being heroic if like... you're saying your heroes are heroic for standing against it, but ....eeeeeveryone else is kinda doing the same damn thing and it's not a problem? like have them actually stand apart)
but that... that bugged me LOL
